Pit for LM
Auto-translated
7th round.
Pit - in sake of LM (red, Valeska, Valeska and Zubin) def Mizrael (blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti), 141, 2sm4d(3).
On the first week, I didn't reach a secondary dwelling; the blocks were made of archers, and I didn't want to go cross-country to the Barbarians or Bog dwellers. I found an external dwelling of spearmen, sacrificed a horseman. Money was tight, I didn't build a castle, I bred griffins, but on 121 I bought the main stacks.
On 121, I collected 11,000 gold via a chain, bought more army, and went to a grass secondary dwelling. It turned out to be Conflux. I climbed the lookout tower and saw a prison behind demons and an external dwelling of Psychic Elementals — so I headed there via a stable. I freed Zubin, level 10, with Expert Logistics. I transferred the army through the chain to the capital. Along the way, Sorsha takes a Conservatory for 2 angels, and Valeska tries to take a Pandora's Box. Meanwhile, the witch on a fly and stable enters the dungeon and makes a swift raid to the lookout tower near the opponent's capital — perfect, now everything is visible. Crag decides to attack; I want to take the Pandora's Box and meet him with the full army, but I miscalculate — it gives 60 spearmen, and the army is already gone... I have to turn back, but it was for the better — Crag had gathered quite a force from two Dungeons. On 127, Conflux is taken; Crag enters the lookout tower. I take a monastery and build Monks in the capital with a castle.
Here I make a terrible mistake. The plan was to retake Conflux — small forces were a day's march away — then send Valeska there, bring her the army via a chain for 3 weeks, and plug the hole in the dungeon so that Crag would be left with a 2-week army. But I buy troops with all the money and have nothing left to buy Valeska... I have to plug the hole with Zubin, who has no artifacts. Crag attacks:
Crag (10, 1, 2, (19)), Expert Attack and Artillery, Basic Tactics, 36 Medusas, 25 Evil Eyes, 190 Infernal Troglodytes, 40 Harpy Hags and single Harpies, ballista vs. Zubin (3, 5, 3, (30)), Advanced Artillery and Basic Archery, Precision in the spellbook, 60 Archers, 16 Monks, 154 Spearmen, 9 Swordsmen, 4 Champions and 2 Angels, ballista.
The battle was very interesting and long. I eventually managed to destroy Crag's archers with my own archers and fast units; then the Troglodytes charged, but the spearmen's first retaliation wiped them out. Crag retreated with a few Evil Eyes, about fifty Troglodytes, and a couple of Harpies. I had 10 Archers, 7 Monks, Swordsmen, and over 100 Spearmen left.
But a day before, I didn't have the money to buy back all the troops — yet in a corner I found 3 rich treasure chests, and Crag gave a bit of gold, while Valeska takes a Dwarf stockpile worth 4,000 with the remnants. So I managed to recover immediately, bringing 4 Champions, 16 Griffins, and some Swordsmen plus Air Elementals from a secondary dwelling, and I go on the attack. I quickly take the underground castles, meet Crag again in the swamp, now with Valeska. By then, the army was notably larger and the stats higher.
Thank you for the game!
