Moskovskiy_1 (Elves, Anven) defeated Flash_Rus (Orcs, Tilsek) - Day 7, Week 2, Month 2

The beginning was simply magical. From the start, Anven and Ossir, regeneration was gained on day 2, and in the first week, I broke through to the adjacent zone (it was unfortunate that druids were guarding the portal, but with regeneration, it was manageable). When I waited for the ents on the 3rd week, everything became much easier. I simply defeated everyone. On the 4th week, I went to the center and, foolishly, ran into a nosferatu (there was someone else there besides them), who didn't let the ents under regeneration even move... As a result, I had to run, leaving 11 ents and 40 archers on the battlefield...
After mourning such a loss, I took the dragoons with unicorns and went to another adjacent zone, where I reached the same center and started wandering around, looking for treasure. I wandered around, visited various adjacent zones of the orc during the search... And then Tilsek suddenly appeared from the Global Outpost! Luckily, he didn't reach the city. I teleported to the city, brought in troops (which had been moved there in advance for such an occasion), and started waiting. To my surprise, after destroying the side forces, Tilsek didn't go for upgrades but immediately attacked. I, on the other hand, was full of upgrades, so my hero's morale reached 4, and luck reached 6 (in the city, with the building, it was 8). Tilsek was one level lower than me.
The ballista, of course, was effective, but it couldn't hold out for long. The strongest units I had were the unicorns, which survived the city assault. The opponent decided to surrender as soon as I used Divine Retribution for the first time on the remnants of his army.
After this battle, I went to the Global Outpost, where I gained another 2 levels and took many upgrades. I changed the week to a week of life to better counter the ballista. After that, I bought troops and went to his city. I didn't want to take the Castle; instead, I had a plan to wait for the end of the week, buy an army, then change the week to a week of plague (I was sure the orc wouldn't have enough money to ransom his army), and with a clear advantage in troops, level, and everything else, attack his city. But the opponent didn't let me do that. He attacked himself and lost the battle.

I won't describe the hero now; it's already late; I'll attach the replay later.
Thank you for the game!
