15.12.2012 ~no1_knows_me~ (blue, ? dungeon, Dierdre, Dierdre) def SVAROG (red, ? barb, Girda, Gundula) skirmish 126

We picked all restarts and the roll gave: me - Castle, opponent - Rampart. Lyon comes with a tent without bows and Edric with griffins without bows, and they aren't even built in the castle either - sadface :o Near the castle there are 4 crypts scattered around, but nothing to take them with. Moving on, I see a passage is unguarded, ran by a mine, broke the guard to the green adjacent zone, I thought maybe I can take my native secondary town now, but Ivor comes out of there :smile11: Naturally a meeting with slow units on 114. The rules don't say anything, but a re-roll is needed, continuing to play is a ridiculous idea...


We re-roll further, get Dungeon vs Barbarian.

111-117: Dierdre arrived, the question about papa is moot. 0 gold, but there's a free prison :smile03: The guard to the adjacent zone is 50+ blue gremlins and 50+ harpies, both need to be hit. Cast meteor on the blues, and crushed the harpies with meat. Took the Necropolis town. Took 2 external dwellings of Troglodytes, bought +1 knowledge with Dierdre, well nearby - hit 20-49 swords for the gold mine. Scouted a Pandora's box for 10-19 nagas, didn't risk attacking the first one, decided to level Earth a bit. At home 1-2-3-4-6 in fort.

121-126: Break through the horde of harpies to the wasteland zone, send the Miner there, he arrived at the tavern on 121 btw :) And I run to the nagas, there are 18 of them with Haste (3 of them). Meteor at 145, cast it three times and only single nagas remained, which I finished off with a hundred Troglodytes. Take the Pandora's box - all level 5 :smile41: the match is already decided. Take the Dragon Fly Hive for 4 more Wyverns and bash myself against 10-19 liches guarding the passage to the red Necropolis. Also take out the gold center with meteor -6 liches. At home double my mana (get to 100) and straight to the reds. Implosion at 682, enough for 4 casts... no one will survive :smile16: but opponent surrenders due to a lousy layout.
thanks for the time spent.
