10.01.2012 JustObserver (red, random, Conflux, Brissa, Lacus) def A_I_D (blue, random, Necro, Vidomina, Vidomina) 2sm4d(3) 221 group A

Week 1 - Lacus with expert Tactics, advanced Earth, and basic Pathfinding. Next to the town there is a Dragon Utopia, no passage to the secondary zone is breached (swamp and grass), due to a lack of adequate troops, there are Psychic Elementals in the Citadel. In the corner of the respawn lie the gloves.
Week 2 - I gather money and send Ciele for the gloves, after which I break through to the swamp, next to which there is immediately a teleport for Gogs (into a snow treasure zone). I take a couple of Magma Elementals and, now with expert Earth, I break through the passage along the grass to another adjacent zone - a ramp. I immediately cast View Air and see a chocolate - +2 speed, +4 attack, Dwarf Cottages, Magma Elemental dwellings, Crypts, a ton of free stuff, not like in this dreary swamp... birds in the castle.
Week 3 - I reorganize a bit and start clearing this respawn in 3 directions: Brissa with one bird and a couple of Faeries runs around collecting free stuff, Lacus with 8 Psychic Elementals and 24 Air Elementals on expert Tactics collects Crypts and Dwarf Cottages and eventually meets up with Ciele with 4 birds, who took down a club to break +2 speed for 20+ Mighty Gorgons. I reorganize again and direct forces toward the swamp, thankfully expert Pathfinding.
Week 4 - I broke through the passage to the snow treasure zone; in the Pandora's Box there are 45 gr. Lizardmen. Tons of money, I buy everything available and go to the minimal Dragon Utopia for the Boots of Speed, a Sack of Gold, a Statue of Legion for Eagle Eye, and the Boots of Levitation *fail*. I scout the underground treasure zone and decide to go there.
I collect Dragon Fly Hives, +4 defense, +1 to all, a helmet -2\+10, I reveal an Anti-Magic Cloak in the snow - made a note.
Week 5 - I finish clearing the treasure zone (48 ducks), pick up the cloak, upgrade the ducks as much as I can, and by the end of the week I move toward the opponent via GO 50-99 gr. ducks. On 217 I stop a few tiles from the Necropolis town when suddenly...
221 - in the town there is a hero with one Skeleton, I bring 4 birds from the castle, Lacus returns behind them and attacks the town (epic fail, redraw, universal contempt, thank you for not taking the technical win!), and in the town, it turns out, the opponent's main was hiding! After a lengthy discussion we eventually realized our mistakes and after loading the auto-save, the opponent jumped out of the town, leaving me with an empty one but with Necro growth. I found the opponent the same day - he was waiting for me not far from this same Necro town, and in the final battle the combat advantage was entirely on my side.
Thanks for the game!
