ekzekutor (demons, djaza) defeated bolivar (mages, djalib) in the 3rd month
I chose M3, thinking I'd quickly run around the map. In the end, I crawled around like a disabled person, sometimes having 2-3 empty turns. There were titans and druids on the portals. Without machines and starting with light magic, it wasn't very effective. I barely managed to get out by the 4th week, where a mage was already running around, but without any meat shields. I drove him away, rushed to an uncaptured center, cleaned it up a bit, and on the 5th week, I pushed through the treasure, fighting for a long time, constantly losing turns, until I found a book of light. After that, the disabled player got stronger, took a couple of gnomes, found the Armor of the Forgotten, and felt better. And the mage, it seems, decided to wait for me in his castle, so only minor units fought for the territories. I didn't rush in right away either; at that speed, I waited for a bunch of tricksters to reach me. I found some boots, then another pair, cleaned up the second treasure a bit, and by the 3rd month, I finally started to storm it. I broke through his minor units and attacked. And there were darkness and summoning spells, and at the beginning, the mage had a lot of luck, almost a hundred succubi didn't disappear, but gradually, the demons started to take over, killing both their own and the enemy, and overwhelmed the mage.
Thanks for the game.
