Konstantin's generator initially threw such a start for the red Castle that I felt sick... But here we are playing...
Start with speed roads, no built archers. On day 1, a Dragon Utopia is revealed near the castle, a Dwarf Cottage, an external Griffin dwelling, boots. In the tavern, Clavius; I'm focusing on him...
On day 112, Clavius gets Tactics in fights against neutrals, already wearing the boots... The ГО (Cyclopes) and a fork in the road leading to 3 secondary mines are revealed, the road to the 3rd secondary mine and external Archer dwelling is blocked by 20-49 Grand Ogres.
Day 113 - I light up the Observation Tower, which reveals the respawn of a secondary mine on the rocks behind double guards of Medusas and Gogs, the outlines of snow where the 3rd secondary mine should be, a second Dragon Utopia!!! behind the capital, and 2 external Archer dwellings with a Crypt that the ГГ heads towards, breaking through an artifact for +1 Morale along the way.
Day 114 - I break through the Crypt (mini), capture the external Archer dwelling. Day 115 - I pop home to the Stables, stay overnight near 20-49 Cerberi at the metro to the secondary mine; a scout deep in the respawn found Stables and a Griffin Conservatory nearby.
Day 116 - I break through the Cerberi, but below the metro is a horde of Lizardmen; I break through 30 Ogre Magi for a Pandora's Box with 10k gold, stay overnight near a block on the snowy secondary mine.
Day 117 - In the snow, I free Gervulf (level 5) with a decent skill set from a prison, capture a Tower, stay overnight at a Crypt. From the Observation Tower in the snow, I revealed an external Wood dwelling and the outlines of an external Dragon dwelling on the opponent's respawn(((, as well as neighbors in the treasure zone on the rocks - a Necklace of Swiftness and a Griffin Conservatory.
At home - Stables with the Citadel, including 2 external Archer dwellings.
Day 121 - I break through the Crypt, split my army at the capital and rush to the first Griffin Conservatory via a Fountain. Archers are recruited from the external dwellings.
Day 122 - I break through the Dwarf Cottage (mini) in a chain; the ГГ stays overnight at the Griffin Conservatory on Champions 2-4.
Day 123 +2 Angels, another Griffin Conservatory is revealed on the corner of the native respawn; Clavius rushes to it on Angels.
Day 124 +3 Angels, I split the army at the ГГ into the Tower and stay overnight near a block in the treasure zone. I broke through the external Griffin dwelling.
Day 125 +2 Angels, Necklace of Swiftness (2), I split the army at the capital to refill mana. Griffin upgrade. From the Expert Earth magic view, I see the opponent's capital is very close to the ГО.
Day 126 - Swordsmen upgrade, Clavius speeds up on Angels not far from the ГО; I pray that Konstantin doesn't have an Observation Tower on the border of the respawns.
But at this time, Kyrre was busy breaking through the Necklace of Swiftness, external Wood, and Dragon dwellings.
Day 127 - I break the Cyclops horde, leveling Ballistics to Expert, break through the Rampart with a Castle and several units, upgrade 6 Silver Pegasi, stay overnight there. I didn't build a Castle at home; 1-6 in terms of development.
On my turn, a scout on 1 Dragon and 1 Grand Centaur sends my 2 scouts to the forefathers in the direction of my capital; from the metro near the opponent's Inferno, my scout is chased away by Efreeti...
Kyrre broke through a block from her own respawn to my Tower, staying overnight in it.
Day 131 - Clavius chases away a scout with a Dragon from the capital; in Rampart, with whatever funds were available, I bought the forest brotherhood.
The ГГ stays overnight on Angels, Silver Pegasi, and Champions near the capital; the rest of the army is inside.
On my turn, Kyrre in a chain recaptures her capital (honestly, I didn't expect her to make the chain), Town Portals there (a Town Portal scroll to Expert Earth magic and a level 4 Mage Guild with Armageddon and Chain Lightning), stays overnight there.
Day 132 - Clavius visits the Stables in the capital and buys a few Archers and Crusaders; there's no gold at all... And I attack.
Kyrre has - 6 Angels, 5 Efreeti, 1 Unique, 20+ Grand Elves, 20+ Grand Centaurs, and a few Silver Pegasi
Clavius has - 7 Angels, 5 Champions, 10 Crusaders, 1+5 Silver Pegasi, 80 Skeletons, 70+ Archers
In the first round, I take out the Efreeti (as if I knew Armageddon might happen :smile16: ), block the Grand Elves. Then, thanks to Expert Ballistics (which the opponent also had at Expert), Mass Slow + Mass Shield, and an advantage in army power, I achieve victory.
Thank Konstantin for the game!!! Finally managed to win against him; before, I only got my ass kicked by him on the Portal....
