~no1_knows_me~ (Blue, Stronghold, Crag Hack, Crag Hack) def Decontaminator (Red, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) 2sm4d(3) 1.4.3.

I'm on a roll with Stronghold :smile04: :)

We started without restarts.

111. In the tavern, 2 native heroes; wolves are built, I'm upgrading goblins.
112. 2 conservatories, 2 medusa dens, and a naga den are lit up; the wolf den is painted; portal to snow.
113. A hellish horde of gogs (6 stacks of 12) wiped out 50 goblins :( and they even shoved fire magic into the second cell.
114. Secondary: Tower; I visit the arena.
115. Medusa den at 4.
116. Looking for gold and crystals. Another conservatory scouted.
117. Everything is at zero, but at home it's 1-2-5-7 in the castle. :)
121. Dwarf dwelling at 15.
122. Broke through to the swamp respawn. By the way, GO is good: a horde of psychos and wizards, and both need to be beaten :smile07:
123. No matter, I'm building a chain.
124. Secondary: swamp. With Crag Hack, I break into the tower and stand on the conservatory (a two).
125. Conservatory taken. Naga den at 3. I stand at the crossroads toward the next two. Just in time, Crag Hack got Pathfinder.
126. Mephala appeared far away on my respawn, with a couple of Unicorns and a group of Grand Elves. I decide to chase her off, turn around from the conservatories, and engage in battle.
127. Running back to the conservatories.
131. I bring up the army, and a horde of ogres (94 units in 7 stacks) still buried 1 Mighty Gorgon of mine. With 4 Mighty Gorgons, 2 Angels, and about 2 dozen wolves and goblins, I go for the conservatory. It's a three. I take the risk. Three. Excellent. I take it.:smile03:
132. Here I blundered: One last conservatory remains, I can't check it because it's slightly blocked by mountains and I can't click on it with the cursor, and among the three scouts circling near Crag Hack, there isn't a single spare goblin. I stand with 5 Angels and 4 Mighty Gorgons on the conservatory. I think. Can't be bothered to wait for a chunk of the army to be brought over, I attack — it's a max :eek: No matter how hard I tried, I had to sacrifice 2 Mighty Gorgons.:smile05:
133. The Red scout killed mine; I stand almost next to him with Crag Hack and upgraded birds.
134. Red almost reached my secondary Tower. I scout a piece of Red's territory — grass and snow. I stand with Crag Hack at the border of the respawns for now. Nelly kills the arrogant scout.
135. I delve deep into the enemy's respawn. I stand at a crossroads.
136. Spent a couple of minutes thinking where to go: up after the scout that galloped off somewhere, or left, closer to the wood mine, though I dunno... I decide to go left; after running a bit, I see a Rampart:smile44: I capture it almost unguarded.
137. I sit in the Rampart. The scouts scatter in all directions.
141. I buy 4 Unicorns, 14 Grand Elves, and go hunting; I head into the swamp toward the enemy. Jabarkas with 19 Orcs and singles hangs around Red's Tower.
142. Jabarkas shouldn't have been loitering near the Tower — a hundred upgraded Grems sent him to the tavern. I scout the swamp respawn with a scout. While watching the enemy's turn, I noticed some flickering of red flags near the metro to the Dungeon. After assessing the enemy's swamp respawn, I decide not to go there but to head to that metro — plus, 2 Mighty Gorgons and 6 Thunderbirds will arrive via chain.
143. Kyrre attacks herself, deciding to shoot Crag Hack down, covering 24 Grand Elves and 110 upgraded Grems with all her troops. But the advantage in power (9 Angels) still made Crag Hack the victor. :smile49:

Thanks for the fierce battles )))
