14.10.11 Scorpiona (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) lose black_knight (blue, Necro, Clavius, Clavius) 2sm4d(3), 214
What a game!!!
The opponent chose all rests. I'm red underground, external dwelling of minotaurs, native secondary, tons of Dragon Fly Hives scattered around!!!
On the first week, even though I captured my native secondary, a terrible lack of money prevented me from gaining tempo and spreading in different directions:( .
117 5 heroes, in the capital 1-4+ portal in fort, in secondary Mage Guild, market+portal.
On the second week, I somehow started to get rolling after Shakti took Nagash dwelling (2), Dragon Fly Hive(6) and ran to the next secondary looking for income to buy out.
And then on day 126, who should drop by from the secondary to visit me but Clavius himself with his entourage:smile13: :smile13: :smile13: , he breaks the chain and captures the capital. Well, I somehow manage to transfer the chain with a full exchange to send Shakti to the treasure zone (which is already well-scouted). Where he basically spent all of week 3…(Having in his army 18 Minotaurs and 18 Wyverns + a handful of Troglodytes)
My first goal was the helmet+5 all :smile20: behind 48 Pikemen, a couple more Dragon Fly Hives, and a Griffin Conservatory(1), and then a 5-level hat:smile03: !!! Pendant+1 to speed, Orb of Earth, Breastplate+3 to attack.
137 I break into the secondary to replenish mana. Naturally, while wandering in the treasure zone, gold was in the negative, considering Clavius mowed down all my scouts and left me with 1 town, so there was no building in the secondary.
141 20 Minotaurs and 26 Wyverns + masses: easily take a Dragon Utopia(2) = КЗ and various small stuff.
But then something unreal started:smile14: )))) My stats are 16 +-1, but when I recaptured my capital, I saw the handsome Clavius (who had just eaten a couple, or even 3 Dragon Utopias) with parameters already at 30 each!!!! What to do:confused: ??? I go to the next treasure zone….where I made a bunch of mistakes, first in a Dragon Utopia (3) I forgot to resurrect 6 Minotaurs (the stack thins out for an already weak army), and then I ran into a max Dragon Utopia without mana….where they ate my angel and also bit my Minotaurs and eyes, and I couldn't even leave mana to return to town….in short, that was the finish….:smile35: The Dragon Utopias kept giving books again, КЗ, КО, К of Air…well, sandals too, but I'm still wandering without a sword and shield….:smile05: The meat is thinning out, but the stats stay the same…
Meanwhile, there was a constant micro war with scouts over castles and secondaries…:smile13: :smile13: :smile13: :smile14:
Seeing that Clavius had no control, I used it to the fullest, trying to find more Dragon Fly Hives, but alas….I didn't find any more, and I waited until Clavius acquired Dimension Door and, having deprived me of all castles, caught me without mana when Shakti tried to reach the town.
Thanks for the game!
