11.6.2013: twaryna (blue, random, Stronghold, Gird, Crag Hack) def wowa (red, random, Rampart, Mephala, Mephala) Big Nostalgia 226

We got completely out-harried. He gives up a Citadel against Rampart with a double-comp. Only one road to the enemy. But there were some pleasant things: 2 native heroes with Crag Hack at the helm + dad immediately got logistics; an external marketplace and a couple of wolf pickups at the respawn and a Dragon Fly Hive. During the first week, I scouted 2 adjacent zones off-road, cleared a grass zone along the road, killed the swamp enemy along the way. Only the road to the enemy was a dead end — all the treasuries were off-road. Crag Hack leveled logistics, wisdom, pathfinding, and earth magic. At home, I barely managed to place bears in the Citadel + orcs, in the swamp — Wyverns in the fort. On the second week, I cleared a treasury on the rocks, killed the Tower enemy, by the end of the week I had 26 wyverns and 3 angels. On the 3rd week, I cleared the grass treasury, took 2 Dragon Utopias in different corners of the map (boots, +10 knowledge hat, +4+4 jacket, +3 all necklace, +6 sword, КВ), skeletons started rolling in heavily with the cape and pendant. I upgraded the bears and 42 wyverns. On 142, I catch Mephala with 38 wyverns and single efreets. Crag Hack's stats are far higher (31-19 vs 21-12) and the army is mean. Wowa throws a death wave and runs away (no money to ransom). Next, I head to the underground treasury. There's a Dragon Utopia there (gladius + gloves) and 4 Dragon Fly Hives. In the tower, I build a 5th Mage Guild with a library — they gave flight, which is useful. On 211, I take the capital Rampart and then head to the central treasury. I'm one step short of taking the Dragon Utopia, and Wowa snatches it from under my nose (by all laws of the genre, it had the most needed stuff — КЗ and red orb). But we don't lose heart. Next turn, I take the +2 speed cape and +1 HP ring = I assemble the elixir of life. I pass straight through the treasury, take 2 Dragon Utopias (+5 all sword, wings) and sit down to replenish mana in the Rampart. On 125, I build a 4th Mage Guild in the tower village — they give Town Portal. Later I also build Dimension Door. On 217, Mephala offers herself up in the center. Crag Hack and backup are standing near 2 Dragon Utopias. Straker takes the first — they give the red orb. That's it. Town Portal to the Rampart and I close in. I take out half the army and a ransom follows. Then began a game of catch-up, stealing castles and villages, a war of cheap troops, etc. In the end, I found shackles, but eventually I stripped all the artifacts off the cockroach — from my very own daddy Moandor, whom the opponent killed while wearing the shackles and later bought back. Surrender follows. Thanks for the game!
