wowa (red, Rampart, Kyrre) def MaxGor (blue, Castle, Valeska) 8XM12a@132, medium roads
3rd game in a row against Valya, even though in Favorites I tried to struggle with Castle :D
My opponent took what looked like 1 rest on 111
in the working layout the 2nd pick was Ivor, with buyout there are 16 pointy-ears, Kyrre immediately runs past the Griffin Conservatory along the road through a teleport to the underground, but there is a dead-end village on the left, and the exit to the center is behind a horde of lizards
there's another Griffin Conservatory under the teleport, and 2 or 3 more above the castle, but they're far away
I decide to clear the respawn for now, and on week 2 take the 2 nearby Griffin Conservatories + 1 in the underground not far from the road, and also a Dragon Utopia is revealed there, but behind a quest pillar((
Kyrre visits a few stat boosters in the meantime, takes crypts, Ivor paints an external dwelling of wood elves above the castle, also a Centaur and Dwarf dwelling are taken
build-up 1-6 in Castle, Kyrre meets week 2 at a double Griffin Conservatory, which is taken with growth at the cost of 15 Dwarves and 20 Centaurs, giving Earth Magic
then a triple, the remaining Centaurs fall, Kyrre runs to the underground village for the spell book, capturing a shield +5 along the way, and after expertizing Earth Magic
in the village where we stay overnight, the well immediately pleases, knowledge 4, but SP only 1))
the next day the lout takes a Refuge with angels above the village, there's a Devil there, Kyrre pushes into the center, once giving the purse to Ivor for taking the underground Griffin Conservatory
I have Earth Magic view, in the center I find a green Rampart, the next day a purple Barbarian, then another village, and on 127 Kyrre is ready to dive into the teleport
in the meantime a mage guild is being built at home, on tier 4 Resurrection and Slayer, at home in the depths of the respawn there's a Dragon Utopia, but it would take Kyrre a couple of days to get there, though there are Griffin Conservatories along the way
but behind the teleport there are blue flags!
having a bunch of towns, I decide, after dragging the growth that I had money for, to rush to the blue's home, fortunately the army strength indicator shines higher for the red player
and, if I don't kill him, to set up a trade, and then with Resurrection, wood elves from 2 towns and new angels from the Conservatories overwhelm the home Dragon Utopia
having picked up a torso +4SP along the way, on 132 I don't reach a few hexes to the blue capital, having 7 angels, 48 Grand Elves, 8 Unicorns, 2 horses from an external dwelling, 1 Devil, 3 Roc, and 15 Centaurs, neutral morale and an artifact against it
Valya didn't choose to sit in the castle, but attacked counting on her morale
she has Expert Water Magic, Ring of Speed, also 7 angels, a horde of Marksmen, 5 Griffins, 13 Swordsmen, 1 horse and a few Pikemen
but Kyrre's parameters are higher, plus Advanced Armorer and Basic Offense
neither has Tactics, but the opponent has the right to set up before the battle
and he makes a mistake by placing the Marksmen opposite my angels, who, after a Slow on the blue, fly over and stack up
the blue angels have already struck into the elves, and here I, hitting them with the Devil, for some reason think the retaliation is gone, strike with the elves, and they follow the Marksmen, the archers didn't fire in friendly fire even once))
then we chopped a bit, there was Cure, Slow removed every other turn, and at the end the Unicorns blinded the last surviving angel! however, for friendly fire the opponent sold all his resources, so it seems Valya had nothing to buy him back
the opponent also had a home Dragon Utopia and an unkilled Griffin Conservatory along the way; there was an option not to engage, but to try to take it hoping for something
but the autopsy showed the Dragon Utopia had complete trash, so it wasn't working out, besides, Kyrre, having boosted in the castle, could have simply caught up with Valya
otherwise GG a turn earlier, thanks to my opponent for the game :)
