07.04.2012 twaryna (red, Swamp, Gunnar) def Gaudin (blue, Tower, Solmyr) Speed 1 (l - u) 122

We each took one restart and began.
On the second day I killed the pink computer - a Barbarian; on the third day I captured the native secondary town.
At the Barbarian's secondary town I found a Griffin Conservatory and a Dwarf Cottage, and a mana doubler.
Then a crossroads - either go kill another Barbarian computer, at whose respawn a Pandora's Box for 20-49 Vampires or a Necromancer computer was visible. I decided to move toward the Necromancers, since the Necromancers had already broken their own guard and were scurrying around outside their territory.
There were four heroes in total. Money was tight. I transported Gremlins and one Mage to Solmyr, who was standing one transition away from the Necromancer's castle. Vidomina jumped out of the fog and attacked the delivery. I killed her Vampires with my shooters, and she in turn wiped out all the Gremlins and the Mage with her shooters. I retreated with one Gargoyle. On the next turn I killed Vidomina and holed up in the Necromancer's castle.
The prospects were far from rosy.
In the main town, Nagas are stationed in the Citadel. I only have enough money to buy three Nagas, and even then I can't transport them with two heroes. A dilemma arises. Should I move Solmyr toward the Barbarian computer, or seek out the Necromancer survivor in the fog, who is surely just waiting for Solmyr to leave the castle?
In short, there was no tempo at all. It was 5 AM, and we had already played for 6 hours. I asked my opponent to save and continue the next day. The opponent agreed.
The next day, after restoring the current situation in my mind's eye, I decided not to continue and surrendered, sparing my opponent's time and my own, of course.
The outcome of the game was easily predictable.
I must admit honestly - I played poorly :(
The setup was very playable. The computer respawns were not poor. Lots of Mage boosts.
After the game, it was suggested that I should have built the Citadel in the town I captured on the second day, since Tower is much more expensive :)
I didn't figure it out myself, alas.

Thanks for the game!!!
