The game turned out to be a bit dramatic.
Start on the surface, small respawn area abundant with shooter guards. The rest is blocked by an external dwelling of skeletons, a Griffin Conservatory, a Hive, and 2 money heroes (+350). ГО off-road, opponent in the underground...
I break through to the neighboring respawn via the eyes - a little over 30 skeletons remain. No liches in sight as planned - missing 1 sulfur, have to build a market. The external dwelling of elves turns out to be very useful. By the end of the week, 2 Dwarf Cottages and 2 crypts fall almost without a problem, skeletons close to a hundred...
Week two started with a pleasant surprise - a hero in the tavern with advanced necromancy and an artifact giving +5 to it, plus Gretchin with 3 stacks ).
Griffin Conservatory 2-4 - have to bring in Tamika (level 2). Skeletons already close to 300.
I sacrifice an angel on the elves (attacked in time trouble).
Mid-week two - I finally break through the elves to the passage into the underground, but there is no second guard - meaning the opponent is nearby. A scout hero reveals the blue Dungeon (interesting, main hero or secondary?). I pass the army (300+ upgraded skeletons, an angel, 4 horses, and 5 liches) and capture the blue's main (?) city. On day 125, no one attacks me, so Ciel stays in the castle, and the army is passed to Tamika (to pick up the speed +1 artifact, gather skeletons). Day 126 - Shakti runs in to retake his castle, Ciel traded decently. Shakti makes an interesting move: leaves the army in the castle, runs out himself on harpies. Attacking with a secondary hero doesn't make much sense - he'll buy his way out or run; I block the approach to the castle with the secondary. Of course, I should have attacked, but who knows what mage is there.
Day 127 - Shakti runs to my castle, killing most of the heroes along the way (Caitlin with liches didn't stop him) and crashes into the castle... And even attacks my secondary hero.
After a series of mutual feints, I managed to lock the upgraded troglodytes in a corner and strike with the skeletons after the retaliation was exhausted. gg
Thanks for the game.
