In the first week, I freed Vit from the prison and generally had no problems.
Ora wasn't given Chaos for a long time, although I had already found all the boost artifacts. At the end of the 3rd week, I emerged into one of the centers, which turned out to be a side one, i.e., poor, plus snow, and I lost almost a week there.
Then, trying to find a treasure zone or a rich center, I broke through the nearest portal, which, as it turned out, led to an adjacent zone of the opponent.
I reached the town in 2 days, but was one tile short of capturing it empty; in the end, a field battle ensued, and Chaos decided things in the mage's favor.
Thanks to my opponent for the game!
