On the very first day, two dragon outposts were discovered – one behind a group of King Minotaurs and another behind a crowd of Cyclops; a Pegasus outpost was also taken. Gnome and conservatory with red boots (which influenced the outcome of the game) guarded by Scorpios were also in sight; Heroes 7.
On day 114, a GO was found among a group of Dwarves, and nearby, a Centaur outpost was liberated. Kirre had expert Logistics and Ranged skills, along with basic Tactics. A +3 sword was seized from an army of Combat Gnomes, and the guard protecting an Imp with a cartload of wood from an army of Steel Golems was removed.
On the fifth day, both secondary structures (both unguarded) were captured – the main town and a Tower, located precisely at opposite corners of the map on the northeast and northwest sides. There is massive rotation of weak units – after a group of Griffons, a double prison was opened, and a Throne Room-type conservatory was discovered.
On day 116, I took the Dragon outpost behind Minoans. Kirre crashed into a Tower for a book (from the second guild), and another Dragon outpost was discovered, guarded by an army of Hounds (+ Sphere of Permanence).
On the seventh day, through various means, I rushed to the second Dragon outpost, but many resources around it hindered passage. Erdamon, bought from the city as a fast unit, cleared the area, but Kirre still lacked one square to enter the structure. In the main city – a Castle with horses; in the native secondary structure – a Fort with Elves. Kirre is level 8, stats are 7-9-4-2, expert Tactics, Slow, Ranged, Lightning Bolt, Bless, Healing.
On day 123, the third Dragon outpost was taken, and on day 124 – three Angels. By the end of the week, Kirre was halfway to the GO, with stats 15-14-6-7, + expert Resistance, Wisdom, Advanced Armor, basic Earth + Fire Magic from Pandora without level 5, 32 Grand units, 6 Angels, 5 Dragons, 1+67 Captains, 6 Horses, 19 Silverbacks (in the garrison there were also 45 Gnomes and 9 Dryads), Dragons have been built, and in the secondary structure – a Stronghold with Pegasi and Dryads.
In the new week, I repelled the guard protecting the Amulet of Courage with a teapot, but didn't quite make it in time, blocking the path to it as well. The next day, +15 Vivica from Pandora (behind Acidlings), the guard for the Book of Fire from Pandora was defeated again, but I still couldn’t pick up the artifacts myself. The following day - +4 Chaos Hydras, and I move towards the Dragon Utopia. My opponent has long been in the treasure zone, but his army is weaker. Archangels are not yet available. Weak units found their way to the Tower in the treasure zone and started attacking it. In general, the Sword of Justice was revealed behind a group of Archdevils, and nearby – the Book of Earth behind an army of Vampires. The Dragon Utopia turned out to be disappointing – a black orb and Cyclops breastplate. And from this moment began the final chain of events.
On day 135, Kirre breaks into the treasure zone Tower from her native city, and on the way out, she defeats the guards of paired Pandoras behind a group of Giants, takes the first one – 15 thousand gold, doesn't reach the second one. Decided to take it with Silka, a true sorceress level 20, who appeared in the tavern with stats 4-2-9-8, expert in all magics and expert Scouting. All magic was in the Pandora. At first, I regretted that I didn't choose my mother unit. But in the end, everything worked out well. Kirre headed towards two relics. Christian was also there, waiting for a folder to pick up some loot. But then Alkin, the enemy hero, arrived, killed my janitor, and stayed put – either luring me or his turn ended. His parameters are solid; he has Archangels. I break through the guard with Kirre, Silka and Gemmka collect the artifacts, Gnomes and Dryads couldn’t make it by one square and remained near the weak units. I attack Alkin. He has 2*2 Archangels, a pack of Horses, and a pack of Hydras, 80 Archers, a pack of Crusaders... My 10 Dragons were buried by an explosion and fled with a ransom; Expert Resistance with boots providing 15% did not help. End of turn.
The new day began with an attack on Kirre. I have a main stack of 5 Angels, cover the Archers with Hydras, Horses, and Vivicas, just as blue meteors rain down. I cast Armageddon at 950 and flee with 1 Angel and 3 Vivicas. Alkin is left with 8 Horses and 10 Chaos Hydras. Now, the opponent's main hero has run out of moves. Hints appear that maybe I won't surrender yet :) And I respond, saying maybe it's time for him to surrender :p There were still troops… nearby stood fifty Gnomes and almost twenty Dryads, and all unredeemed ones from the secondary structure. But first, I checked Silka's power, took the teapot and Sword of Justice from the main hero, and with a spell of 22, attacked Alkin with 3 Pegasus units and Gnomes +40 Gnomes with those red boots. Immediately casts Armageddon, killing all the horses. The opponent, seeing that after Armageddon my units survived, doesn’t dare to cast anything himself and sends Hydras forward. This is exactly what was needed. Silka hits again with Lightning Bolt – minus 2 Hydras, and flees because she ran out of mana. She immediately redeems herself in the Tower, returns artifacts to those who need them, and then Kirre puts an end to it. Berserk on the only stack of Hydras, then Slow and running around with successive explosions. Thanks for the game!
And these are the maps :smile26:
