It happened again; a series of small, annoying mistakes decided the outcome. :( Everything was going well, with a familiar secondary town, hidden units of Viv and Vases. At the end of the second turn, I made a blunder – I foolishly lost 20 Lizards and 3 Ducks. To compensate, I built a Castle and a Stronghold, but the 7500 resources weren't enough for a proper buyout when the opponent arrived at the beginning of the third turn. As a result, I didn't have enough meat to provide cover. Six Angels (I couldn't find any Conserves) and the opponent's superior stats sealed my fate. Thanks for the game.
