Respect to Sasha, the tactic of luring the opponent into unfamiliar territory proved successful. Good luck in the second game.
P.S. I would like to see the saves from the first game to see what happened there.
I couldn't find any reaction from friends in China – no streams of this match on their forum.

They started the new game with the same factions – I told him that you need to know how to play with the blue Necropolis, but... maybe the translator didn't convey it properly.
I took Gretchen at the start, with a hidden stash of goblins and cyclops at the castle, we played for 126 turns, then my wife said that I needed to go with her and the child to a Halloween children's party.
She is still angry that I spent the last two weekends in a club organizing the Kyiv tournament.
We will probably finish it only next weekend, if they want to.
