6.04.2012 HellLighT (Red, Flux, random, Luna, Galtran) def Tootsie Pie (Blue, Stronghold, Gunnison, Gunnison) 2sm4d(3) 131

We restarted and began, the layout was pleasant - air elementals built - Luna with an artifact +3 mana per turn, Gosh (Galthran) popped out as the third hero from the tavern... which I was incredibly happy about, plenty of money piled up at the respawn (not to mention 6 windmills and 4 crypts), Gosh from the first 2 treasure chests experted Necromancy, revealed a Necromancer's Cloak with a tent for 50-99 grand... I immediately marked them as bird food :smile19: On day 1 month 1 week 3, I took a secondary Necromancer, Luna ran around with starting air elementals and sprites, while Gosh initially tried almost unsuccessfully to gather a skeleton stack with water elementals and fire elementals, but it just wasn't coming together - some morale issues, some personal blunders, besides that it was alarming that absolutely the entire surface zone around my res was covered in stone (thinking in horror about what would happen if the opponent collected all the Strongholds). Financially, it still didn't quite work out and the birds only got built in the fort... well, that was still acceptable. Gosh, without thinking long, breaks the grands, puts on the mink coat, and went to the hospitable Imp dwellings, which lured him in as well as Mikhalevich with red shorts %), besides that, I took a Dragon Fly Hive on 6 Wyverns. By day 1 month 2 week 2, with Luna I took the adjacent siege town and revealed an external Behemoth dwelling with the Observatory, albeit in the middle of nowhere, and behind 20-49 snipers (the damn resource lying nearby)... so I decided that if needed, I'd try through Luna with chains on day 1 month 2 week 7. On the other side of the res, I found an external Roc dwelling and a Griffin Conservatory on day 1 month 2 week 5, by that point I had with Gosh 3 birds (1 was with Luna nicknamed Fire Feather -_-), 23 Storm Elementals, 4 Psychic Elementals, 8 Water Elementals, 20 Sprites, and 175 skeletons, with stats of 6 attack 6 defense, I revealed a Titan Conservatory with a gre (for those who didn't understand, 2-4), decided that in principle I'll take any - I attack, and then... MAXIMUM, and the opponent's 200 Monks are sharpening their kestrel claws on poor Galtran :( I came out of there with a loss of all but 100 skeletons and 3 Psychic Elementals, but 80 skeletons were returned, his coat is worn for a reason! At the same moment, the opponent came out with a small army, but with quite impressive parameters - 15 attack and 7 defense, upon inspection it turned out to be 12 Thunderbirds, about 40 Wolf Riders, and the same number of Goblins... but of course the main damage was dealt by a crazy Ballista, the opponent runs to my main and captures it on day 1 month 2 week 5, even by the most conservative estimates, considering that I'm Red, I manage to retake my capital by day 1 month 3 week 1. Simultaneously, I build a backup plan for Behemoths in the Castle with an external dwelling, but financially it doesn't work out at all, even considering the Medusa dwelling taken along the way, I'm short 5k for the Behemoth lair, and only one market remains, but I was catching up to Gunnison boosted on birds, who had his eye on the Dwarven Shield that I didn't take from the res, on the first turn I take down 6 out of 12, on his turn he takes 1 Angel with the help of the Ballista and buys back for 4k - YEEHAW, I exchange the remaining thousand on the market and build the Behemoths with +3 growth ;) now even if the opponent pulls out some trump card - heavy clawed cavalry won't be long in coming! ) But I overestimated the opponent's capabilities and he simply bought in at my main - having almost no army, still in the citadel I had built. Day 1 month 3 week 1 - I attack, global meat advantage, though the -3 morale took its toll, the Angels as the main striking stack only moved once, it even happened that the opponent sent them back to their glorious portal :smile39:. But there were still 200 skeletons, Psychic Elementals, and a Behemoth, as well as a shooter hitting for 100 that left no chance. Post-mortem showed the opponent's very poor financial situation, which played a significant role. Thank you for the game
