I thought I'd lose... Vistan arrived; little money, but external dwellings of lvl 4 and 5 are visible. But.... It started with the fact that optional morale for various goblins halved the gnoll stack. Then it got worse: spotted a green hero on 112 under the teleport, the passage isn't breached, I put Vistan on a snake, maybe he can run in, the army is crawling to Moandor to take the crypt (forgot that in WT he has no haste). A wipe in max — vamp with 2 heals didn't let me shoot or retreat. If only I had at least five one-shot gnolls.... Left without cash, and then the camp performs a feat — attacks 20+ gr wolves at the teleport. Vistan perished, I buy back Brogh. 3 heroes left, damn. It ended with me even intentionally giving up my own town after building the pref. And still no luck — losing vivs... a stack of 21 cents gets morale twice in a row — just my luck)))
By the start of the 2nd week I obviously took back the capital, but it' same unclear what to do. Consa on 2, which should have been placed on 121 in one go, is postponed to the 3rd week. By a miracle I stopped myself from surrendering. And Nelka is already showing awesome stats something like 8-6-14-8.
On the 3rd I started picking up speed — 4, then another 4 angels, in the box 15 gr cows, 35 snakes. All the time waiting for a visit from the reds, but even though the passage to the center is fast — they spared me. New problems appeared — no Dragon Utopia. Seemed like scouting was decent.. again idk what to do. Collecting geese little by little with Taz, reach the village, and there Brogh is bought back at random. There is a Dragon Utopia!!! Even if there are 2 swords of justice in it, still — I was happy as an elephant)))) Then another one was found — there's a water book. Meanwhile Nilka is tearing apart my 2nd front — 100 lizzies, 18 gorgons and 3 hydras tu-tu. BUT I managed to recover, and the stats with the cloak of renunciation are far superior.
The meeting with Nilka was a walk in the park:
9 angels, 2 hydras, 65 ult.vaseks, 47 vivs, 31 ult.gorgon and 1+1 snakes. +2 speed, +3 morale\luck, and a red orb.
Nilka has 8 titans, 5 angels, 6 fire birds and shooters, stats 12-39 against 9-8.
Thanks for the game.
