"King of the Hill"

Thanks for playing.

At first, everything was going really well — the external dwelling of elves, Tazar dug himself up and leveled up nicely. On the first week, thanks to an external market, I built Mithril in the citadel by the skin of my teeth. On the second, I set up 2 Griffin Conservatories 1+3. The first treasure zone from the barbarian computer turned out to be barbarian as well, but very small — Kyrre ate it in 1 day.
There was an external dwelling of bears and a pendant +3 morale/luck, where on guard there were nearly 100 medusas, and I lost half of my main stack of almost 50 Grands on tactics :(
Next, I went into the treasure zone from Inferno — it turned out to be very large; at first, two Pandora's Boxes gave 15k gold each, then I took necromancers with Dead Man's Boots and 3 imp-outposts, getting a decent boost in the form of 200 skeletons for a Dragon Utopia.
Finally I found one, immediately set up a minimal with wings, then a max with the Book of Air and junk, and the 2nd was also junk. I had the thought of taking Castle Opal on 137, but I would have had to beat Kyrre with a bear, and there was no one to give it to — I hesitated and apparently in vain. At the start of the 4th, I upgraded 15 bears and went into my last treasure zone on the snow, where there was a Dragon Utopia with several Pandora's Boxes.
The Dragon Utopia was junk — in the Pandora's Boxes: level 5 + Air Magic. Along the way I built a level 4 mage guild with a library in the tavern, and in Inferno, Town Portal was never given anywhere :(
In terms of stats, I started falling seriously behind + there were already Archangels around. I took another Dragon Utopia in the opponent's treasure zone — there, the first artifact was essentially a more or less decent stat item in the form of Titan's Gladius, and that was on the 4th week :mad:
The opponent got much better drops from Dragon Utopias, and seeing stats of 42 - 42 against my ones being twice as small, I decided that continuing further made no sense.
Thanks for playing.
