Kash (red, Rampart, Kyrre, Kyrre) def KостяN (blue, Conflux, random, Brissa, Dragon), Mini-Nostalgia, 142

Played Conflux online for the first time (don't think I trained much in single player either, maybe once a long time ago at most). I played poorly from a template perspective - I didn't go "hunting" for the AI as early as possible and even the 1st day wasn't enough to reach the center by that deadline:o :o :o . As a positive for myself, I can barely count only the stretch from 111 to 121, where I farmed gold in 4 crypts and some side areas for birds in the Citadel, without losing any of the 15 air elementals, and took an external dwelling of Dwarf Cottages with one of the candidate main heroes - Octavia with Tactics and Air. Though the external market helped a lot - traded a couple thousand there on 117. And on 121, dumping all resources to zero, I managed to buy all the birds, psychos + a few others - took a Dwarf Cottage-30 with gr. stack for 1 pixie, not a bad fight for such a noob:D. There was also a moment on week 1: I was thinking whom to buy and make the main hero - Dragon or Edric? both have identical skills it seems, but then I remembered an important nuance that swamp dwellers rule in terms of chance for useful skills - and that decided my choice;) (the fact that I lost anyway in the end is not Dragon's fault:) ).

After the Dwarf Cottage, nothing interesting happened: a prison with Alamar 5th (subsequently carelessly fed to the AI), a mini-tree (the only one found all game). AI-Dungeon, where there was an immediate Whirlpool and 60 mana (around 124). Town portal home, leveling up on a treasure chest (though there was no money - there was even a serious question about whether to build or not a Castle on 127:eek: !), Griffin Conservatory without checking (was ready to eat any...) - it turned out to be a 3, also fought decently even with the artifact - lost 1 pixie, just like in the Dwarf Cottage (birds had less than 30 HP left - lucky there were no moral bonuses for the chickens:rolleyes: ). And it seems by 127 I was sitting in an empty swamp, where the stupid AI chickened out and didn't even set up a Magistrate:mad: .

On day 3 I ran around a dull treasure zone with 2 external dwellings of green dragons and 20000 experience as the useful stuff - and at the same time SIX(!!!) prisons:smile21: :smile35:. Then I broke into a dungeon where the noobs found another Griffin Conservatory. But I wasted a whole day and a half there - a chain of 7-8 heroes simply couldn't reach it, let alone connect. There were also 3 griffins there. All that was left was to go to the center through some "several" rusted (locations?), thankfully with Offense-Defense-Earth-Tactics, thought I should break through fine... But I got myself caught out like a total noob. And even full Meat would not have saved me without Anti-Magic - 7 Implosions on 2000 and no full Meat:) .

Thanks, Vit, probably not likely as you said "you'll get your revenge" - that's unlikely:D, I think I'm playing worse with each game, while you're playing better - that's the impression I get...
