An awful layout came up, to be honest, I only didn't take the last restart because of the capital in the underground and a decent number of Troglodytes at the start. 1 road leads to ГО, the 2nd goes to a secondary town, where there's a block of Manticore horde guarding a Dragon Fly Hive, I never dared to break through it on week 1, went down the roadless area, there's a portal through 20-49 elves, broke through them, then Gargoyles and got out into the swamp, good thing there's a path nearby, Clavius with the meat goes to capture the secondary town, Shakti back, broke through another passage through the metro, there's snow... just super, with the scout hero I take a max Crypt, in the capital 12345 in the Citadel. Shakti stands at 121 on the speed boost near the Manticores, I kill them, there's a native secondary town, in the Dragon Fly Hive 6 Wyverns, 20 Dwarf Cottages, I see that it'll take about 3 days from the speed boost through the labyrinth to get to the passage into one treasure zone, I go into another one, spend the rest of the week there, took 2 more hives, behind 20 Unicorns and 40 Cyclopes (behind both there was also a Pandora's with Inferno meat). At the start of week 3, I visited 2 libraries, got a shield +6 and tunic +4, got stuck, unclear where to go now, ГО is too tough, I see money buildings on the swamp, a Griffin Conservatory, a passage to the opponent and a Dragon Utopia. Got bogged down in the swamp until 143, result +3 Angels, full buyout from 2 castles, book of Water, Earth and sphere for +damage from earth magic, at 145 I take the opponent's capital, then his native secondary town, at 147 Dragon Utopia at home, gives trash, at 212 finally decided to break through ГО (Scorpicores and Red Dragons with СС), the opponent showed up, retook the secondary town, refilled mana, goes for the capital. I estimated the chances, compared stats, decided to fight, although the tavern showed my army strength was lower. In the end, an implosion at 1700+ decided the outcome in my favor, in the FB fight I barely won on a thin margin, only a few Wyverns remained. Thanks for the game!
