OUTLAW (red, Castle, Waleska, Waleska) def Dubrovin Pavel (blue, Swamp, Tazar, Tazar), 2SM4d(3), 2-1-6

Thanks to Pavel for the great battle!

That's what happened.
In the first game, I simply didn't scout my secondary town; the archers were guarding it, and that's where Shakti came from. I would have defended in the Castle; I had 40+ Elves and everything else.

In the second game, I only had 1 Necropolis secondary town. I never got the Log. There was a hidden town of Viv, with up to 100 Mummies, which I only took on turn 2.
In the fourth week, with only 1 Fortress in the Treasury, I had to attack Waleska, and Tazar only had enough mana for 1 Mass Slow. Meanwhile, Waleska's archers were dealing 150 damage. I only managed to get out with 2 Vivas and 19 Gorgons (+2 Speed from Igor really messed up my plans with the tactics).
In the fifth week, I took Max Utopia and assumed that Waleska wouldn't have many troops left after our encounter in week 4 and the DD to her, but I was actually met with resistance there, and in the last 2 rounds, all of Waleska's archers gained morale and also seemed to get lucky, which didn't allow me to finish with an Explosion and buy my way out.

Thanks to Igor for the interesting games!
