Road only to one secondary, lots of crypts. At the respawn, an external dwelling of Dragons, but guarded by 40 Medusas, so I only took it on the 2nd week. Then spent a week gathering money, broke through to a secondary - Conflux, there are 2 Naga Banks (3rd-level and 2nd-level) and a Griffin Conservatory (2nd-level). I took them on the 3rd week with 4 Dragons and chow from Troglodytes. Then went roadlessly to the opponent's respawn. There I took another Naga Bank and a Dwarf Cottage, and we skirmished a bit; I killed Valeska's 3 Cavaliers and an Angel, losing 2 Dragons and an Angel. Bought back in, built Dragons at home on day 141, bought them out (7 pieces including from the Necropolis and Portal), picked up the maxed-out Griffin Conservatory and the maxed-out Naga Bank, so I could immediately upgrade the Dragons. Then at GO - 25 Dread Knights. Since I had no Slow (even though Expert Earth magic from the 1st week), I lost 2 Angels and all the chow from Harpies. But 7 Black Dragons and 3 Angels were enough to take the opponent's main with Valeska on the next turn.
Thanks for the game
