Yeah, if all the mana had been available in the first battle, Valesk wouldn't have been defeated... Everything was going well, 2 Minor Minotaurs, 3 Cons, took 4 Angels to level 121... I lost all of that around level 123 somewhere in Maxitope, where I got terrible units, and nothing to improve the magic stats of the existing Earth Book. There was no Earth magic, and there wasn't any until the end of the game. In the end, I had 8 Minor Minotaurs left, nothing to do, waiting for reinforcements, easily defeating the Guardian of the Oasis in the early third week. I got lucky and received artillery with an attack of 27, which allowed me to win the first battle... Then came 2 mistakes that led to a stupid loss of a game that was already practically won. First, after the battle with Valesk, the seconds were ticking down, and I got nervous and attacked with less than 50 units, but I had no mana and only about 8 Ducks and Minor Minotaurs... I could have replenished my mana in the central castle and started clearing the center, but instead, I had to run away... And the final mega-stupid move - I settled in a village in front of Valesk with 1 Angel and 1 Red Dragon, forgetting that I was red and wouldn't have any mana... Thanks for the game.
