We started without restarts, it seems. The second level wasn't built, but Luna arrived, immediately revealing a Griffin Conservatory and an external dwelling of Fire Elementals, albeit behind nasty marki guards. Money was tight, but Luna tipped the scales. With 4 heroes spread out, I decided to go for it. I made a mistake by not checking the Griffin Conservatory on 111, though I could have, and it turned out to be a 1. As a result, Luna lost 2 turns running in the other direction and spent a long time Expertizing Fire, so the Conservatory fell only on 115. I revealed another one behind Dragon Fly guards off the road, a secondary on grass — excellent. By 117 I took the Castle, next to which was another 1-value Conservatory. Nearby was a Dragon Fly Hive guarded by 20 Wizards (since on the first there were 10-19, by the second it became 20-49) due to a bunch of junk like a stone +1k experience and resource chests. In the main, Griffins were garrisoned in a Fort. On 121 I buy Luna out in the secondary and chew on the Conservatory, and then the devil made me argue with Sevensan, who was watching the micro, that Wizards would kick a pile of meat rather than Angels in battle :d, and without buying the birds, I went to fight with 2 Angels, 40 Halberdiers, and single Faerie Dragons... may that Angel rest in peace under that damned Dragon Fly Hive with 50-99 Dragon Flies :(, then in my excitement I attack Medusas, who conveniently stone my Angel and almost finish him off to lie next to his fallen brother ;D. Without losing heart, I keep playing! Crag Hack appeared in the tavern — a decent prospect, given that there’s no access to the opponent except through the Wizard. I took the Swamp, and with the growth, Crag Hack grabbed the pre-max Dragon Fly Hive. The Conservatory behind the Dragon Flies turned out to be 3-4 with Haste, and I decided not to mess with the slow heroes. Luna went to another Conservatory on the secondary, right next to an entrance to the treasure zone. The Conservatory 2-4 turned out to be a 2. I immediately dive into the treasure zone. The first fat Pandora’s Box I clear is given to Crag Hack for the Pits and... empty ;] frustrating. All of week 3 I clear the treasure zone, build up a stack of Birds, level Crag Hack a bit, take the last Conservatory — it turned out to be a 3 — and go into the Dragon Utopia on 141. I get +5 all Sentry Shield, which is acceptable. I split into the main and prepare to break through the Wizards. On the charge, I burst into the underground, and on the other side, 50 Beholders with Haste are waiting for me oO, and I have no single units. What a surprise. With Oil, Storms, and Psychic Elementals reduce the stacks, and everything ends well. I immediately take the opponent's main, with 2 unbought populations. In the tavern, Aislinn appears with stats twice as low and a smaller army. Then I took 2 more Necro castles! Thankfully they weren’t built, so the economy apparently wasn’t that good. The opponent didn’t want to show up — as I thought, he was devouring the Treasury. By the time I started catching up, he had already gathered 50+ Birds, lots of Skeletons, and was moving with Fly and Dimension Door, which sapped my confidence in victory, especially considering the high probability of having Armageddon. One of my scouts spotted at the edge of the devoured Treasury the Cape of Abdication. I immediately transferred Crag Hack there and rushed at full speed. The opponent, realizing what was happening, ran to intercept, but couldn’t make it in time. I take the Cape. The opponent attacks out of desperation and rather confidently loses to Fireball :) thanks for the game.
I confirm. The economy really wasn’t great at first — specifically the Mercury, to build Cavaliers in the secondary. I spent almost the entire first week running around with a FIRST LEVEL hero :( Then things got a bit more fun — Skeleton growth started, I went into the treasure zone, but it was already too late. When I was about to claim the growth from the main, Crag Hack ran out with stats twice as high. He ran like crazy — immediately pushed to the main and killed all the growth :( , 8 Cavaliers, such a waste (((. I ran to clear the rest of the treasure zone — there was a Dragon Utopia that gave junk except for a Blue Hat. When I was running to the Dragon Utopia, I saw the Cape of Abdication, but it was behind a pile of Red Dragons. I didn’t fight them — a big mistake, as it turned out. Then my running from the opponent began. Dragon Fly Hives were spawning like crazy. I gathered a stack of 50 Birds, 800+ Skeletons, captured the opponent’s Castle secondary, refilled my mana, and ran back into the subway — because with Air Scouting I spotted another treasure zone on the left. Then I saw the opponent rushing to the Cape — but I couldn’t make it in time. Crag Hack takes the Cape. I decide to break his chain by killing a Scout, but Dimension Door doesn’t reach, so I have to fly past the Giants into the Dragon Fly Hive — and the devil made me press Enter :smile05: when I entered the Hive, I realized I’d broken the rules by not dispelling the guard. I killed 6 Birds, disbanded them, and attacked the opponent. I had no chance in the Fireball, and anyway I lost. I suppose my inattention was to blame — after a workday, at one in the morning, we decided to finish the game. Again, my slow tempo and my mistakes during the game turned out to be decisive :(
Thanks to HellLighT for the game.
