We cleared 4 ramps on the map, but couldn't find a convenient passage. All guards are tough. On day 116, I essentially went with the starting army into a max gnome hut without Granite Skin on snow. With a bit of luck, I pulled it off, which allowed me to place upgrades in the Citadel. Then I decided to run toward the ramp NPC, because there weren't many Centaurs left. And I ran... I only arrived on day 124, but there wasn't much choice. At home, I built Dragons in the Castle, the NPC had upgrades in the Citadel; lucky me, Alkin on three Unicorns took the NPC's Castle on day 127. I decided to prefer Green Dragons over Angels, because that allowed Kiryusha to breach the Treasury immediately. There I ambushed Gunnar, quite unexpectedly (as it turned out, the opponent got a one-way and was running through the Underground via rough terrain — all Dragons because there was no money to retake them. I devised a defense plan: lure Gunya into the Fort, where Gurnisson sat, and send Kirryu on Silver Pegasi. In case of losing the Fort, buy back in the Castle with three Angels, which could be easily afforded thanks to 10k Gold income. But Gurnisson, the Pegasi raising the cost of the Spells, and the Fort's towers pulled it off. The opponent saw no prospects and conceded. Thanks for the game.
