111 medium roads, the nearest Inferno computer opponent has a Castle. 5 heroes, I build Archers, under the Castle there's a Pandora's Box for 10+ Monks. Army: 44 Pikemen, 22 Archers, 30 Gremlins and 5 Golems, a wood mine behind mountains, an external Monk dwelling on the road.
112 I upgrade Archers, take 3 chests for experience with Nila and then a Gremlin dwelling for 15, reveal an external Horse dwelling behind a horde of Hounds.
113-114 six heroes, I break through to the sand along the road, break through 50 Horsemen for a Teleport to the center (the first stack as usual triggered luck in round 1 and minus 6 Marksmen, forgot about the external Horse dwelling), then Inferno land guarded by Ogre Mages and a block of 50+ Cerberi for a Pandora's Box. In the sands I found an external Swordsman dwelling behind 50+ Hobbitts, only 5 wood total and still far from the mine.
115 I see a block to the brown computer from a horde of Beholders (74 as it turned out later) for an Imp dwelling and two scrolls, I turn around, at home there's also a block of the wood mine from 10+ Storm Elementals for an external Griffin dwelling, but finally I saw 2 piles of wood.
116 In the sands I find Boots at a skeleton, I attack 43 Pikemen on Hobbitts (there are 82 of them! 21 Pikemen survived), I reveal a Griffin Conservatory on the respawn, build Stables and have 11,000 gold and 8 wood left, and I can see 1 more pile.
117 I found another 2 piles of wood and with relief I build a Hippodrome
121-122 I buy up troops, capture a Shield +3 and kill 20 Monks near the Castle (lost a Horse, 2 Swordsmen and about 15 Pikemen). The Pandora's Box gave 25 Swordsmen. The scout hero runs to the Horse dwelling and Nila to the Griffin Conservatory.
123-125 the level 3 Griffin Conservatory is taken, finally I reach the wood mine and also see an external Pikeman dwelling. Crypto captures the Castle from the green player.
126-127 scouted a bit of the treasure zone, took a Mini-Nagash, broke through the Cerberi for a Pandora's Box (gave 15 Royal Griffins) and captured a secondary Castle from the blue player in the center, Nila settled there to replenish mana. Nearby is a Dragon Utopia, I plan to take it on 131.
131 I enter a level 2 Dragon Utopia: lost 30 Griffins, 7 Horses, 1 Angel, 3 Monks and 10 Gobs, 2 Angels and 39 Crusaders left, and it gave a Sword of Justice and a Water Book. Right away I lose 3 Crusaders on harmless Harpies for a Spirit and Luck artifact +3 :fsp: Also scouted the opponent's army: 60 some Eyes, 150+ Troglodytes and 4 Wyverns.
132-133 a Cape +2 speed is taken, I plan to take the second Dragon Utopia. Troops assembled (100 Halberdiers, 66 Marksmen, 10 Royal Griffins and 2 Horses). A second ring for + hit points was taken. But the opponent hopelessly loses in the Dragon Utopia. IMO half of it wasn't even taken
Thanks for the game
Everything was exactly like that. On 126 they captured my Castle and split my army on 2 fronts — you can forget about reinforcing with growth). Also the computers were really annoying (On 132 I found a Town Portal scroll, maybe that was a chance to unite the army by building a Mage Guild — but due to lack of gold I stupidly went into the Dragon Utopia — where I got wrecked to the max:) Also the presence of medium roads played a nasty trick — they were so long — and I killed the computer way too late. That also caused disarray in the game(
