Wlk77k (blue, Swamp, Tazar) def Злой романтик (red, Dungeon, Shakti) 2sm4d(3) 131. My victory, half and half with the generator. When my opponent had no more respawns left, it spawned super — 2 Griffin Conservatories and 2 hives right next to his own Castle. I played somewhat relaxed for some reason; the entire first week I fumbled aimlessly on my respawn, just earned a bit of money on 1-6 without 4 in the citadel with 1000 and took the external dwelling of serpents. On week 2 I took both Griffin Conservatories, which turned out to be minimal, the hives (8+6), the secondary towns were who-knows-what, I was even too lazy to go to them for something, scouted a short passage to the opponent, on week 3 I was about to go fight him with 22 Griffin Veterans, 11 Minotaurs, 2 Angels, nearly 50 Flyers, various chaff like 50+ Lizardmen, Mass Haste on approach, intuitively felt that in this game this would be enough. However, on 131 the opponent surrendered; the post-match analysis showed that despite a bunch of secondary towns, he really didn't have much of a chance. Thanks for the game.
