Took all the resists and went for it, splashed out poorly. Found a nest of Medusas, they have a portal and the Manticores are in the Citadel. By week 2, a block for a Pandora's Box, the 2nd road to ГО, looks like my opponent's native secondary town))
On week 2, I got 3 mini Griffin Conservatories, crap...
On day 131 in the treasure zone, Pandora's Boxes for experience, took a quest for 20k gold, took an Utopia for 2 Dragon Artifacts, got КЗ, a Dragon's Crown, and a Legion Helmet..
I hit ГО on day 136 and take my opponent's main town...
On day 137, I take +5 to Sorcery and assault the secondary town with Moander..
There are 500 Skeletons, 150 Mana Wraiths, 7 Angels, and some odds and ends..
I have a modest 130 Troglodytes, 40 Harpy Hags, 25 Evil Eyes, 2 Angels, and 14 Wyverns..
3 Implosions, Mass Slow, Magic Arrow, and no Skeletons. But my opponent has a ton of Mana Wraiths and could overwhelm me with ranged attacks..
I bought a retreat, word of surrender follows, Moander can't reach the capital where Gunnar is standing at the gate, thanks for the tense battle...
