wowa (red, allrandom, dungeon, Malekith, Loynis) def Mizrael (blue, allrandom rampart, Thorgrim, Gretchin), 136, ChinaBalance@superfast roads
in the very first generation I was dealt Tirith against Misha's Gretchin – such a deja vu))) but he didn't play – as a result, he used all his restarts and ended up in a tough layout
my situation was no picnic either, and with wood it was a total disaster, there was nothing to build not just markets – even taverns and mage guilds to replenish mana for the main mage-daddy, and that was closer to the end of the game!!! fortunately, the well saved me, where the boss ran as many as 3 times! :)
the beginning was unclear – stables near the castle, an external dwelling of medusas, GO – a horde of battle units... though not a single decent fighter :( but then Putin gets Logistics, and remembering that on balance it's damn hard to fill all secondary skills, so even a paltry Sorcery Learning is more of a plus for him than a minus, and mages look pretty good on balance – I decide to level him up :)
result of week 1: medusas in the Citadel and 2 of their summonings
but on week 2 there's nowhere to go, I decide with what I have to tackle rather unpleasant blocks – hordes of archers, maximum stacks of 6th-tier creatures, to break through to the light ;) well, fighting archers is simple – they either target Troglodytes, which I was already wasting on week 1, or Eyes, they don't touch the stack, but battles with cats, nagas, etc. (plus there was a horde of air elementals with a stack)))) by the end of the week left my army with a rather minimal than average lot of medusas, and also noobs are running around on harpies – but I captured two necro towns: a village and a fort, managed to reach the Conflux fort – though with Laura without an army, and also captured a refuge, which decided a lot ;)
to the left of the necro fort, behind a lot of archmages, there is blue stirring, but he doesn't attack, apparently his situation is also not great
the last thing I did before saving – I traded and inserted Centaurs, because there was no strong army
but at the start of week 3 the refuge gives Dimension Door!!! on that day a necro village and a Conflux also fell, but only 3 taverns, not the whole layout is visible, no time to run to thieves, the chain from home is stretched to the limit))) well, I think – if blue sees a dragon in the tavern, let him get nervous while Putin pumps up his mana :D just as it was offered when breaking through a horde of crushers behind the necro village :) then again the well, 19 champions for a box – I take it, and inside there are 60 zombies! Laura opened the Observer, 3 components of the Obelisk are visible, the Shield from it together with the Griffin Conservatory on lava is guarded by a pack of Scorpicores – I run there! I could have taken the Conservatory a day earlier, but first I grab +4 to attack, and the next turn with the last mana I break through a tier-3 dwelling (the damned griffins hit the medusas, despite them being under Prayer, but the Troglodytes under Bless did decent damage))) I sacrificed all the zombies there, thanks to them for triple Dismoral on the medusas!)))))) but the dragon decided, taking several hits from full stacks, including morale ones)
on the same turn I capture an Inferno village and stop there to expand, but I can't build a mage guild no matter what :(
the next turn I break through a short road to home, shortening the chain by 2 links, and run to the center, stopping on angels and a dragon in front of a throng of fire elementals – on the opponent's turn I see Gretchin crawling there with a noob: he's fighting for the Sword from the Obelisk, but is one tile short of picking it up! I upgrade the Eyes, though there are few of them, buy everything out, bring them up and with zero mana (and for the record – with Expert Air and Advanced Earth and Water, but without Haste and Slow) I attack – first the noob with wood and remnants of Centaurs, then the main one: kamikaze Dimension Doors plunge into the grand units, and while they deal with them, the rest, though under Oil, huddle in a corner – in round 2 only 10 elves fire, about 40 medusas, and also 3 angels and the remaining force – 6-tier units and a stack of pegasi have nothing to catch
GG, thanks to the opponent for the game, the match and such valuable experience on balance, the playability of which raises, imho, more and more questions :)
