Thank you, Kostya, for an interesting game! :)

I confirm! (but regarding the interesting game - you were probably joking, it didn't turn out that way unfortunately, Andriy:( )...

Switching to Russian:) . There were no restarts, although a "surprise" in the form of Septienna & Co:mad: was waiting for me in the tavern. However, I must say I handled the task of getting rid of her immoral friends quickly with flying colors: 2 pre-maximum crypts on day 111 helped me a lot with that:smile04: (turned out - I fed undead to undead, let them choke on it:p ). With such a fun start, I got a bit overconfident and hired a 5th hero on day 112 and had to summon all the golems and gargoyles with him (the gremlins in their "nighties" felt very uncomfortable without cover). Breaking through the block of flying rags on the same day, I got out onto the grass and my overconfidence grew further: the coliseum was visible, 2 artifacts for growth, and on the snow I left a vest for +1 to everything behind a horde of white Centaurs. Moving further, I captured a fire elemental external dwelling and on day 114 - a secondary Conflux. Moreover, I fought exactly half of all battles with the scout hero Fiona, learning))). But the closer the inevitable day 117 got, the more my confidence shrank, and on day 117 itself I was even biting my lips rather hard:mad: - neither nagas nor djinns appeared, only level 1-4 in the Citadel (aside from those 2 crypts, on both respawns I found only 2 chests and not a single treasure zone) and they didn't even let me into the coliseum - a dozen tier-7 skeletons. As a consolation prize, there was a torso for +3 mages, oh well: I was consoled:smile18: ...
In the second week of my torment in these godforsaken lands, I decided to give up on everything: I started honing my skill at playing with weak heroes. In the end, Nella and I captured the second Conflux too - from the opposite side of the map almost))). The main hero only regally shouted at her subordinates: like, "can't you lose fewer troops, huh:smile10: ?leave me at least someone for the treasure zone:smile42: !.." I discovered the northern part of my native respawn with a bunch of imp spawns (4 I think): I captured most of them on the 2nd and leveled up the senior scout hero Fiona to level 5:D . Do you think this helped financially? I'd better keep quiet.... Only the nagas in the castle helped when desperately trying to build the economy in the secondary towns))))))).
On the 3rd, I almost lost my eye at the passage to the respawn adjacent to the opponent's, where due to the lack of Tactics and Haste in my spellbook I lost about 20 caps - the damn eyes didn't lure the approaching infantry and fliers at all ((((. I saw a red scout hero, and came to my senses only after buying off behind the walls of my native Tower - that was the super-fast Gunnar in boots who galloped out of the darkness. The very next turn, this supersonic wonder burst into my unfortunate capital and nearly pinned the defenders to the walls with the efforts of just shooters and 70 frenzied harpies with expert Tactics...

Thank you for the game, Andriy! And I would like to express especially warm sincere gratitude to "Mister" generator: I've never seen so many wonderful mountains on my respawn points! What are those external dwellings, hives, treasuries, creature generators, etc. for when I could feel like a true mountaineer:cool: ! Which translated into Russian means approximately the following: "generator-padonak kill yourself against the wall:smile35: !!!!!"
