29.10.2012 HellLighT (blue, Dungeon, Shakti) def wowa (red, Castle, Caitlin, Mephala) Jebus cross 137

We each took 112 and started. A mixed rainbow start — on one hand, 3 stacks came in: 38 40 40 + 2 native in the tavern 38+40 +14 from the castle = 210! But there was a catastrophic lack of gold, roads were average.

Week 1

On day 111 I immediately revealed 4 Dragon Fly Hives, 3 behind the treaders, fighting for every pile of gold, of which there was very little. Only 2 roads were visible, one of which had to be circumvented due to a block by a Dragon Utopia with resources. I found an external dwelling of Manticores, grabbed it right away, got a Shield +4, set up a portal, bought what I could with the meager gold, and lacking cons, dove straight into the hives. Checked one - 50-99, decided at first I needed fewer troops and went into another, went in without looking — and it was max oO, devoured all but 175 Troglodytes and an incompletely purchased cat with a couple of Eyes. The previous one turned out to be pre-max, so I suffered from my own cleverness. After losing another 25 Trogs with overeating in another max hive, I hid the remaining 150 in the main until better times. By day 117: 32 Wyverns, cats in the castle + portal.

Week 2

With no external market and a financially poor respawn (not counting the 4 revealed Dragon Utopias), the treasury didn't even run dry — it simply wasn't there. Shakti's leveling was the only joy — Logistics, Earth Magic, Defense. But I never found Slow, and Shakti had a problem with Knowledge — as dumb as a doorknob, and not even a single hat to hide that one brain cell for 10 mana ;( By day 125, having devoured almost all the Dragon Fly Hives, collected 71 Wyverns (waiting for an upgrade from a built-up village) with remnants of 150 Trogs, everything else was devoured by a triple Dragon Utopia, which gave meager rewards — 3 Swords +5 All, 12 -3 and +6, as well as a Crown +4 +4. Well, thanks for that. I'm sitting at the crossroads near the Cyclops Kings' ГО. But happiness ended before it began — the map turned out to be bugged, and the road to the treasure zone curved toward 2 neighboring respawns — Oppa and Inferno, beyond that no road. I realized I was in trouble, because Castle clearly had another exit into the main part of the treasure zone. Hope remained only in the Dragon Utopias, 3 still left on the respawn and 2 close to the road in the treasure zone. I grabbed the nearest one — Captain's Hat, Golden Bow, and Torso +10 -2. I danced a funeral hopak and teleported home without taking the second one due to lack of mana, overeating, and fear of Oppa emerging.

Week 3

Hope was slowly dying. Despite Mephala still showing up with stats barely exceeding 10, the Dragon Utopias on the respawn gave no control, only slightly boosting my stats. The Inferno respawn turned out to be a complete dud. GM5 gave Earth Elementals, and level 4 Berserker. Mephala began catching up in stats, and a +1 city appeared — it could only be central, but then luck struck — the second Dragon Utopia in the treasure zone near the road gave КЗ, and another nearby gave КВ and Wings!!! If only it had been like that from the start, the game would have ended instantly. Every turn before that I was afraid of a cunning attack from Oppa and equipped the Bracers + Sphere of Inhibition, relying only on Monarchs (78), Serpents, and Scorpions (since the tavern showed an advantage in troops). But then I equipped both Tomes and Bracers, leaving only the Wyverns, not even splitting them, and then the attack came! At first the thought flashed: ГГ, but then I looked closer at the opponent's meager troop numbers and 30 mana against my 200+, and everything became clear. Turns out the generator screwed me over too). The FB was formal. Thanks for the game
