we cleared all the rest stacks and moved out.

111 - scatter of 8 heroes. have a scout (didn't reach full view), spotted 2 external dwellings of Centaur, Dragon Fly Hive.
112 - took the swamp native village. scout opened up. spotted a Griffin Conservatory, external dwelling of Dwarves, two more - of Centaur. Kyrre ran through crypts, leveled up. positioned next to the first Centaur dwelling.
113 - +2 Centaur. Kyrre entered the arena and 1k experience. expert Archery. the rest are just scouting, collecting resources. found an external market. spotted GO - 50+ Champions.
114 - a plan is forming to break into the center on 122 with 20+ gr. Unicorns and the rest.
115 - Kyrre takes another +2 Centaur. another Centaur dwelling spotted in the corner of the map. a chain is already set up there.
116 - take the corner one. Kyrre in front of 9 Bone Dragons for a Pandora's Box and the 4th taken external dwelling. in the castle, Centaur are in the Citadel.
117 - take the Pandora's Box, really hoped for experience to level up Earth, but got 20 gr. Pegasi. Kyrre breaks into the castle, there's Gilda. all the scout heroes are at the Centaur gathering points.
121 - gathering everything, upgrading, take the mini Dragon Fly Hive, Kyrre runs towards GO.
122 - everything not brought up is brought up, everything not bought out is bought out. Centaur upgrade and forward to the Guard Obligator. the terrain was kind, but without Oil it was painful, of course. we got out with a loss of 8 Centaur and the Mana Vortex. near the exit - a castle. ran in, sitting there replenishing mana. + Earth is leveled up at GO, and there is Oil. a few Dragon Fly Hives around but with nasty guards.
123 - ran forward through the center. find the central castle. Spell Power +5, +2 to Speed secured, Dragon Fly Hive taken and Shield +4 all.
124 - take the small shield, Dragon Fly Hive, Kyrre reaches the opponent's Guard Obligator. 10-19 gold and 50+ gr. Unicorns. need to fight both.
125 - Gosha emerges from the depths of his spawn, without looking wipes out both Guard Obligators and attacks. 11 Angels, 500+ Skeletons, 6 Necro Centaur, 5 Necro Dwarves, and 25 Wyvern.
against my 15 gr. Unicorns, 12 Wyvern, 25 Grand Elves, and 14+1+1+1 Pegasi. stats 10-10 for Gosha, 13-15 for Kyrre. Gosha has 5 mana and no cast. I have mana for 4 Slows. In the first 2 rounds, the Angels stubbornly refused to get Oil'd, blatantly resisting and sneering mockingly in front of the entire army. I thought, that's it - GG, we're done.

on the 3rd round they finally got caught too. The opponent didn't want to fly forward. A long tactical phase began with units approaching and retreating. Everyone was tense and silent. The Grand Elves slowly kept shooting. Several Angels dissolved. Managed to nibble the Wyvern a couple of times. And then the Wyvern fell. And then the Dwarves somehow got caught under a blow. The Angels were nervous all the time, flying from one corner to another. They seemed to want to bravely rush into attack, but doubt was felt in their movements. And when the stacks of Wyvern and Dwarves fell, the taste of victory was felt, and the Angels completely huddled in a corner and didn't want to leave it. The Oil ran out, the resistance failed once again. And the reds capitulated.

the final turned out epic, and the whole game was interesting. Kyrre was beside herself after such a victory.
I think the reds had options even in that situation in the final, but history decided to turn out this way.

thanks for the game :)
