Round 2 Homo Homini vs Zavry
Alex_R (blue Rampart Ivor Gunnar) def Lesgor (red Dungeon Shakti Shakti) 2SM4d(3) 122
1-6 in the castle on the first + elven external dwelling and revealed on day 117 and a chain is ready for the mini Griffin Conservatory. But on day 121 Shakti bursts in from an adjacent respawn and falls 2 tiles short of the castle, blocking the chain path. Gunnar was right near the castle with the remainder of the army: 2 horses and 17 elves and 7 Centaur Captains. I enter the castle and think about how to defend. There's about 15 thousand gold. Mage Guild or upgrade of 31 elves or upgrade of 15 pegasi.
Shakti has Troglodytes (200+), Medusas, Quins (7), upgraded Harpies (15+1+1), 22 Evil Eyes, and 1 Angel.
I decided to upgrade the pegasi
Total: Gunnar 6 Unicorns, 13+1+1 Silver, 31 elves, 4 Evil Eyes, and 7 Troglodytes. I could have bought 4 more Dendroids out of 6, but I didn't buy them ... and still managed to hold out.
Thanks for the game.

If I had reached those couple of tiles — it would have been a red-rush. But I remembered about it only later))). In general, there was a native secondary hero, I could have built up the army well with an income of ~3000 already from the first week. The treasure zone is nearby with a bunch of Upgrades and a Chalice (though not yet scouted), but at 2 AM you think about how to finish the game faster. At first, Caitlin attacked — took out a single pegasus in defense. In principle, when I attacked with Shacter, I knew that the chances of winning the fight were veeeeeeeeery slim, but turning back is not my style:) I don't play at night anymore — otherwise I'll either upgrade Medusas for no reason on the first, forget to buy Evil Eye, forget to buy the book for Papa before going into a rush, or forget the tent — same thing, or I'll mess up something else — my head doesn't work after midnight)))).
Thanks for the game.
