Dace has been chasing me for 3 games in a row now :smile41:

Week 1: The path immediately runs into a guard obstacle :( but there are a couple of mills, plenty of gold tossed in, scout reveals an external dwelling of beholder beyond the mountains :) there's a Griffin Conservatory for 2-4 angels... I go beyond the mountains to take the external dwelling of beholders, along the way an external dwelling of medusas pops up :smile03: I broke through into a portal, then into another one, cleared passages everywhere, just need to send scouts everywhere. On the sands I see a Necropolis town, resources for wood and an external dwelling of bone dragons. At home I hired 1-4 in the Citadel with a portal (medusas).

Week 2: Everything is bought to the max, Dace goes back to take stables, the slowpoke breaks through to the Necropolis secondary hero. There's a Pandora's Box behind dwarves for 5k - I take it with Dace, he got Fire instead of Earth :mad: for a speed boost I also hire a bone dragon :smile01: I return to the portals, scout says there are a couple of Pandora's Boxes in the treasure chamber - a plan matures to get into the Blue capital on 131. I go for the Pandora's Boxes, there's another 5k experience and they give 50 upgraded zombies, just in time I break through a flock of birds and I'm home. I stand near the Griffin Conservatory thinking what to do, I send in the slowpoke - level 3. We take it, and a well happens to be conveniently nearby. Rain for 250, enough for 3 casts - I come out with 24 medusas, a dozen beholders, and zombies :smile44: I run home, double mana, learn Expert Earth Magic and stand on angel before the fakes to get a fight. I break through with Dace into a Necropolis town, there along the path I stand before the guard obstacle (opponent probably shouldn't see me...) slowpokes deliver angels, so I'm on speed boost :smile10:

131: Two dozen cats fall under Mass Curse and Dace easily enters the Blue main - there are 2 pixies, 7 birds, and about fifty wolves and goblins each. I buy what I can and wait on angels in the castle. It's clear the game is already won, but you never know :smile32: The Blue player has galloped off somewhere.
132: I run to the enemy's untaken Griffin Conservatory, but don't make it :( But Gretchin does... I ask for how many - he says 3. I think it's going to be a 100% loss, who can take it, I don't know, since I took his growth... but the opponent comes out of the conservatory...
133: I look, and there's a dozen Wyverns, a couple of bears, and 3 angels :eek: I thought that if the opponent did come out of the conservatory, there would only be 3 angels and one bird :smile04: but no, somehow, even with a sad situation, the opponent managed to field a pretty decent army. I attack: Bolt for 293 is resisted by angels :smile45: , I block the medusas with 7 birds and 2 bears, next to them I place 3 angels, 40 dogs, and a single unit. The opponent waits, then casts Oil (I cast Mass Shield behind it) and pounces on the birds with angels first (removed 5), then hit the angels, after them struck without retaliation with Wyverns. 1 angel remained :smile11: finally the bolt goes through on the angels and the medusas with luck finish them off. Then we remove retaliation with the single unit against the Wyverns and pile on... Another bolt goes through on Wyverns, and again the medusas with luck finish them off :) there remain 13 dwarves and the main hero, the opponent even managed to kill the last angel with a shot...

Dace 3-3-11-6(167) vs Gretchin 13-7-4-4(16)

thanks for the game
