We played without experience and tax, everything else was on. Sold Conflux for 2.8k, I desperately bargained for Castle since I’ve played Conflux about 4 times, and that’s in SoD :D. Piterius chose all restarts. I had 111 left.
The start wasn’t bad: dealt a double, a neutral stack of horses behind a horde of demons, 2 Griffin Conservatories and a Dragon Fly Hive. I break into the adjacent zone. I break a portal into the center, see a Dragon Utopia and 2 treasure chests there. On 114 I take the Castle from a bot, nothing built there except the Mage Guild. Nearby I see another Griffin Conservatory and another (!!) on adjacent territory! Too bad there’s no money; by the end of the week horses at home in the Citadel and 1k, the bot has swords in the Fort and 1k. Turis with scouting and earth, 5 heroes. Checked 3 Griffin Conservatories: 3-4, penny and 2-4.
121 - I take the neutral horses, Turis camps on the Griffin Conservatory 2-4, the scout hero takes the Medusa Hive for 8 and upgrades the horses at the external stable.
122 - I venture, after praying, into the Griffin Conservatory — it’s a two (2-4), thank Erathia, they probably took the max. Turis on the Pendant of Courage runs to another Griffin Conservatory, Marius takes the penny.
123 - I take the helmet +5, transfer to Turis, grab 4 Dwarves and 2 Angels, catch learning. Through the well I run to the center.
124 - Treasure chest with 10k experience (navigation, logistics) and an empty one.
125 - I take another chest with 15k experience, Turis runs to the Barbarian village. The army moves to Marius, he takes a level 3 with losses from Devour and 2 horses. But I leveled him to expert scouting and he revealed another Griffin Conservatory!
126 - I wanted to enter it with just Angels, but it’s 3-4, so I took the whole army. Had to leave about 30 Marksmen there, plus 3 Angels. The armies move via chain to Turis, he takes the village, chain +4 and a penny Dragon Utopia with losses of Wyverns and meat from the village. Gave a tome of water, a sword +6 and a ring +1 to HP.
127 - I take a chest with all fire spells and visit the library. The scout hero with Champions breaks the entrance to the underground, where a block of 10+ Thunderbirds is. At home, horses in the Castle, the bot has horses in the Citadel.
131 - In that underground I see the face of an enemy horse, I free Dessa from the prison, take a penny Dragon Utopia with Titan’s Plate armor, a shield +6 and +1 to speed. I buy out and transport the whole army to the main, leave an Angel for Dessa. Turis replenishes mana at home. In the underground, Moner flashed by with 20+ Dwarves and 5-9 Angels, scary.
132 - Moner ran off on business, I fly to the corner treasury, reveal another Dragon Utopia there, Dessa gets merged on the horde of Marksmen.
133 - I take a chest with 60 Archers, the Dragon Utopia is mini again! Gave a Necklace of All, took a Dragon Fly Hive for 6 Wyverns.
134 - I upgraded the Archers, brought the army and DD’d (Dimension Door’d) myself to the blue player by luck. Landed on some random respawn, killed an enemy scout hero there, freed a prisoner.
135 - I run along the road, there’s nobody there at all, but found a Dragon Utopia.
136 - In the Dragon Utopia they gave a flask +2, a shield +12 and a tome of air. At the respawn of the corner treasury I see the missing ring +1, the scout hero on an Angel rushed there, next turn will be the Vial of Lifeblood. Turis Dimension Doors downward, already on the opponent’s respawn and on the last tile reaches Moner, who was sitting there with 6 Angels, easy game.
Thank you for the game.
