Forrest (blue, Swamp, Broghild, Broghild) def Volland (red, Stronghold, Tyrasor, Tyrasor), 1.2.2, TE, 8mm6

We got this matchup. We negotiated using Volodymyr's system. I gave 4500 for the Swamp) and sold the red for 500.
Starting with 6000 was tough but tolerable. I managed to expand with 30 upgraded lizardmen from an external dwelling. In the end, by 1-1-2 I already had stables and found the computer. But I let him build up. In the meantime, I beat off the LV and the external dwelling of units. The scouts scouted a lot and found some gold. By 1-1-5 I killed the computer's hero and took the castle. By 1-1-6, the last hero. The computer built 1000 Citadel and elves with a marketplace. I'm building lumber there. No sulfur. I'm not setting up Hydras. I'm building Wyverns with the Castle. Orrin levels up Expert Archery, beats off +1 speed and gold. 8 heroes by 1-1-7. The computer has two more Griffin Conservatories to my 2-4. I leveled up Earth Magic by 1-2-1, which gave the computer Slow. I wanted to fight at home but wasn't too lazy to run for the tent with Pathfinding one day (everything was Expert, didn't want to spoil Broghild). Orrin was supposed to take two medusa spawners. I dismissed one hero and bought Vistan. I passed everything to Orrin. I fought at home already with Speed. Armor with the Telescope and Expert Scouting just shines super) By 1-2-3, news arrives about a loss at the max Griffin Conservatory. (I checked later: conservatories 2-2-3. They were taken without losses.) Thanks for the game.

P.S. After non-stop Sod in TE, playing is just fantastically pleasant)! I recommend it to everyone)
