Another replay.

The spawn was not bad, but one road besides the GO.

On first standard, horses in the Citadel, secondary Conflux, two pokemon nixes. I level Valya, no one else, but she surprisingly leveled well.

on 121 I take the Gold Bow from nagas, 122 max hive for horses, Valya runs to two Griffon Conservatories revealed on her respawn. The chain takes the hive at Conflux for 8 ducks. Valya has earth magic, but no slow at home, only in Conflux. I don't want to lose tempo, so I have to manage without slow for now. We check the Conservatory — a tier 3 with gremlins, I don't go in yet, but take two medusa stores for 8 and two naga banks for 4 with gremlins, the Conservatory is a tier 2. Home has Angels in the Castle, Valya is at the tier 3 Conservatory.

on 131 Valya takes the tier 3 and splits to Conflux and the stables. The scout hero takes the Cap +4 from the lizard horde. I buy out and go into the only treasure zone. Valya has boots. The treasure zone turns out to be poor unfortunately, I took a Pandora's Box for 15k gold, three mini hives, and gloves (boots already + earth log). Nothing else to do, no Dragon Utopias, although ideally I could have taken one right at the start of the third. I exit this treasure zone through another metro and stumble upon the opponent's secondary. There, from the scout's sight, I reveal a Dragon Utopia. I take a max cyclops pen and build 4 Mage Guilds in Conflux (have a resurrection scroll).

on 141 I buy out, take a mini Dragon Utopia (Shield +4 all), and go to the opponent. on 143 I see Gurn in the Castle, didn't want to attack him and went into another treasure zone. Ran through it quickly, took a Conservatory 2k for 120 gargoyles, a couple of rotten Pandora's Boxes, and by 147 I am two tiles short of the red's empty capital.

on 211 Red buys out and takes a Dragon Utopia, after which Gurni stands in a reachable zone. I take red's capital on 211, Town Portal home, buy out. Town Portal back and attack. Valya has 14 Angels, 33 ducks, 100+ marksmen, 20+ zealots, 30 crusaders, 25 evil eyes, 25 air elementals, Gold Bow. Gurni has 5 ancient behemoths, 70+ wolves, 20 orcs (apparently all that's left after the Dragon Utopia). I cast Slayer, take down three ancient behemoths with marksmen and zealots, and in the second round finish off the GG with horses and angels.

Thanks for the game !!!!!!
