it happened, I got distracted before the first base and attacked without spreading out, then I completely forgot I had Town Portal to immediately escape the elves.
Thanks for the game!

Something like that..)
Started with a record minimum of archers, only 14, not a single wood pile near the sawmill. The entire first week was spent searching for wood and gold.
Mephala ended the week at level 2, Val more or less at level 1.
Then it got a bit better, on the second [week] I took an external dwelling of angels and a level 3 Griffin Conservatory, went into the treasure zone and saw Shakti there already had collected half the Dragon Fly Hives, attacked, and he already had the Tome of Earth, but his magic parameters were nothing special, he bought himself off, and for some reason I didn't dare finish him off in his castle, especially since there were a couple of good artifacts and Dragon Fly Hives nearby. On the fourth week I stand before ГО on 20+ green angels with gr. In a brain fart I attack with a scout hero instead of ГГ and waste all the power: 22 Wyverns, about 10 horses and so on.
Then begins the pursuit of Shakti, who manages to retake his castles thanks to Town Portal and Dimension Door. This continues throughout the entire 2nd month, when I was about to attack him in his castle, he went to search for mine and chose the wrong path, where I caught him.
Thanks for the game!
