I won't describe it in too much detail, or I'll go crazy from the huge reports. We played with a break, the layout was decent from the start — 27 Lizardmen, Galtran is sitting in the tavern with 2 stacks, and right next to the main, there's a Necromancer's Cloak behind the Gremlins! Well, it was a no-brainer, a couple of treasure chests right away, Gosha already has Expert Necromancy, he spread out with 6 heroes... The respawn was generated huge, but almost entirely on rough terrain, on one side from the castle — 2 days away it hits a Dragon Utopia, on the other side a block from a Dragon Fly Hive with a Pandora's Box, so necromancing was very difficult because of that. I spotted an external dwelling of Wyverns, Lizards, and Hydras. On day 115, I take the Pandora's Box behind the Ogres for 15k experience, Gosha is leveling up perfectly — Offense, Logistics, Earth Magic (then Tactics and Intelligence were added later), there are only 3 Dragon Fly Hives on the respawn and all small ones, by day 117 Hydras in the castle. Over the week I ran around more, and because of the shooter-guarded external dwellings, I only accumulated 150 Skeletons. At the start of the second week, I cleared a couple of Imp caches (20 and 40) and moved toward the Dragon Utopia, on day 123 I stand next to it on the speed boost having 250 Skeletons, 23 Wyverns, 6 Hydras, 50 Lizardmen, and small fry, the creatures fall without losses, and right behind them a Sword +5 All Stats behind the Gargoyles — excellent! As it turned out, the opponent and I were thrown into different corners, Crag's stats in the tavern when he was visible during the second week barely exceeded 10 (except Attack), which couldn't help but please me. On day 125, I took the Treasury and sent scouts in 2 visible directions... on one side, a couple of Dragon Fly Hives and a Dragon Utopia were visible, on the other a long winding unremarkable road... the choice is obvious. Because of the inconvenient location of the Dragon Fly Hives, I spend 2 turns collecting all that joy, the Dragon Utopia — the Predatory Mines gave КЗ and a Torso +4a +4d... not much. On day 127, the scouts reach a Rampart town on grass near the opponent's exit, already marked with a red flag, meaning he just came out — parameters are crap, I charge in with a scout hero with Serpent Flies, kill 3 of the opponent's scouts, but can't take the town — too many meatshields sitting there, pity... that would have ended it all right there. Day 131 arrives and the opponent jumps into the town with a Town Portal, grabs a Dragon Utopia near the town and flies back with the same spell... well, I think he also dug up a Book of Earth somewhere. On my turn, I enter the tavern and my eyes start bulging out... the stats have increased by 2.5 times and exceed mine... I was about to howl at such injustice, but you have to fight to the end... I buy everything, upgrade the Wyverns, not enough for the Hydra upgrade, but it'll do. With the scout hero, I take the now-empty town and with Galtran on a terrible speed boost with Logistics and Boots of Speed, I cover an incredible distance along the opponent's respawn road, but still fall a couple of cells short of reaching him... The calculation was that he had no mana, because Red doesn't regenerate on his turn, and before the Dragon Utopia his Knowledge was only 9 visible + a couple of Town Portals and magic in the Dragon Utopia and on the guard... The opponent himself is happy with his luck, saying that with such a layout, you can put up a fight... I already want to quit, because the Implosion would be stronger than mine, stats 28 20 16 19 against my 19 20 12 17, and the army visible is 10-19 Behemoths, 20-49 Thunderbirds... 4 Angels, which he had shown earlier on the scout hero. On day 132, an attack follows from the opponent. On one hand, joy — the army turned out to be minimal: 10 Behemoths, 21 Thunderbirds, 4 Angels, 40 Wolf Riders, and singles against 400 Skeletons, 40 Wyvern Monarchs, 9 Hydras, 50 Lizardmen, 16 Basilks, 9 Gorgons, and 17 Serpent Flies. But my Implosion for 1200 only takes out 5 Behemoths, I'm puzzled... I look — and there's a Vial of Life, a setup ;( But oh miracle, instead of Implosion the opponent casts Mass Haste, as it turned out, the Town Portal was a scroll with Haste already built up, but Crag Hack made me nervous — with 3 morale and 3 luck from the Necklace artifact against my -1 morale, it showed on the very first turn, when the Wyverns lost their turn and the opponent got morale and killed all the meat, but it didn't help against the power of Implosion and the horde of Skeletons with Wyverns. Thanks for the game
P.s. and I still wrote too much :D
