In the first game, there were no decent Light spells (only Word) or Chaos spells (only Chain Lightning), and the artifacts were against the Barbarian :( The heroes were (starting Dirael, and Anven and Talanaar in the tavern). I somehow took Talanaar (probably because of Leadership) and decided to go into Chaos with a rain of enchanted arrows. I quickly regretted not taking Anven and waiting for Light :) Horde of Wrath, in a quantity of 5, quickly decimated the ranks of the Elves, starting, of course, with the Archers :( Empathy and high morale didn't help. And Chain Lightning was successfully deflected by resistance. I managed to kill the Executioners, Centaurs, and Cyclops, 2/3 of them. But the Daughters of Earth, who had reached level 3 of Wrath, together with the Warmongers (level 2) and Shamans (deflected magic once), quickly began to finish off the Elves :( Unicorns fought like lions, charged very often, but blinded only once (and that was with soldier's luck) when everything was already decided :(
The second game was basically similar to the first, but in reverse :) Horde of Wrath and all that...
The third game was quite long and interesting: I had improved attack and defense, more magic, slightly higher stats, Phoenix, Elementals, Crystal, and Mass Speed; my opponent had improved Luck, Elemental Equilibrium, Phoenix, Elementals, and Traps. And the troops were also a little different. Gradually, my warriors overcame his, although the traps caused a lot of trouble. Thanks for the games! Good luck!
