Week 1
Vistan in the tavern with 3 stacks + a few archers from the castle, roads lead from the castle in all directions, one of them leads to a swamp secondary, I plan to mass a lizard stack. Further scouting reveals another swamp secondary (and in the end all three turned out to be swamp), so I decide not to build up the castle at all.
At the first swamp respawn from the watchtower I see 2 conservatories and both exits to the treasure zone, I put flies on speed-up, upgrade lizards and build wyverns in the citadel. The run to the second swamp is longer; in the end I build wyverns there, not many goodies.
Week 2
I check the nearest conservatory - a two, gather all troops - 8 wyverns, 50 lizards (never upgraded), 30 marksmen, 50 pikemen and go in. Naturally, I get beaten like a little girl there, only expert armor keeps a few marksmen, 20 lizards, and 40 pikemen alive. Frustrated, I go to hit the second conservatory, with upgraded lizards and the remnants of pikemen, I enter carelessly - turns out it's also a two, only 2 angels survive. Vistan with expert pathfinding goes to break the treasure zone on the rocks and immediately sacrifices one angel for breaking a gold sack.
Week 3
Vistan runs around the rocks with 3 angels and tries to freeload something until he runs into a couple of hives, picks up the growth, the hives are gathered, total wyverns 18, a gold mine is captured, construction of angels at home begins + a third swamp secondary is found (a couple of steps short to capture it). Vistan with expert logistics and attack starts leveling air magic.
Week 4
I enter the Inferno treasure zone, where I'm immediately greeted by 100+ storm elementals for a pandora's box (20 crusaders) and 50+ griffins for a +6 shield. A delivery arrives, and then - an angel external dwelling, a hive (6), pandora's boxes for experience guarded by gorgons and genies, 20 fanatics for cyclopes, a conservatory one, 4th level magic and a library for Rust Dragons, a sword of justice for titans, a couple more experience pandora's boxes with experience-guards and at the end a Dragon Utopia two with a red orb and a book of fire, a book of air for arch devils and an angel external dwelling in the very corner. Dwarves everywhere in the citadel, angels in the castle, income 5700, time to upgrade arch devils.
Week 5
By 214 I finish doing all of the above. Then, I gather all the forces in the castle (6 arch devils, 4 angels, 38 dwarves, and about 50 gnolls for meat, everything else sits in the castle and doesn't understand why it's needed in this game at all) and on fly I move into the treasure zone, where the opponent is roaming. I kill a scout weakling, take the hive, hit the maximum Dragon Utopia (helmet and necklace +9 to all stats) and go to finish upgrading the arch devils. The opponent sees all this and understands the hopelessness of his position, types gg and exits. Thanks for the game.
Thanks for the game!
