1.02.2012 HellLighT (blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def Shamys (red, Tanth, Tanth) 2sm4d(3) 137

Opp used all their rests, I still had a couple left. The spawn wasn't great to be honest... Shakti with 2 stacks in the tavern, nothing worthwhile, no Observatory, no external dwellings visible, but there was room to expand and a starting artifact Ring +1 Attack +1 Defense. On the second turn, I spotted a Dragon Fly Hive and 2 Griffin Conservatories, slow guards on the secondary mines... decided to play it out. Both secondary mines turned out to be 3-4 days away, Inferno in the underground and Castle on an adjacent zone where another Griffin Conservatory was visible. The only decent external dwelling, Manticores, I saw only on the second week, due to terrible terrain and lack of scouting... First week I peacefully cleared all 3 respawns, by 117 I built 1-6 in the Citadel, checked 2 Griffin Conservatories - tier 2 and 3-4, didn't dare to go in without oil. Spent the entire second week twiddling my thumbs while leveling Shakti, by the third week I had Earth expertise, but Slow was only in Inferno, and thank god for that :) On the third week I cleared all 3 Griffin Conservatories and 3 Dragon Fly Hives, getting a total of 22 Wyverns and 9 Angels, decided to go straight for the ГО, 100+ spawns, break through without losses and capture the opp's main with a scout hero on the last move. On 137 the opp recaptured their castle and sat in it after killing my scout hero. In the battle I managed to notice stats 5 3 7 7 and 8 mana versus my 9 9 4 5, realizing that before my turn their mana wouldn't regenerate, I attacked without fear. FB - 20 Liches, 350 Skeletons, 10 Horses, 3 Wyverns, 6 Angels, and 18 Vampires versus 9 Angels, 14 Scorpicores, 22 Wyverns, 13 Minotaur Kings, 18 Evil Eyes, and 100+ Troglodytes. With Tactics, casting Oil on the fly, I dive all in on the opponent, immediately minusing 5 Angels and 20 Liches. The opp casts Mass Haste (surprising me quite a bit) but doesn't even kill the Wyverns, the opp doesn't have enough mana to cast the next Slow, the outcome of the battle is predetermined. Thanks for the game
