Group "G" 30.06.2013 The_ (blue, dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def Myxomoar (red, swamp, Bron, Bron) 2sm4d(3) 131.
I took 2 restarts, opp took 1 and off we went.
First week: behind the Dwarf Cottages there's a nice sword +2+2, there's a Minotaur external dwelling, Dragon Fly Hive is glowing, easy guards on secondary (golems+golems, on the other side zombies+griffins, respectively). I break through the first passage underground (off-road), thinking it leads to the treasure zone, to immediately see what's what there, but it turned out to be the opp's secondary town, a castle with no guard, so my scout hero calmly takes it, and runs off to clear the respawn. Shakti meanwhile breaks through another direction, the secondary being a Citadel. Despite three respawns, there was no money again, I managed to squeeze in Minotaurs at the Citadel + a portal, though without buying anything (to afford Minotaurs on day 117, I traded from two markets literally down to zero, after gathering 4k gold for Minotaurs, only 5 wood remained and everything else was at zero). I was very glad there was no reroll due to an encounter.
Second week: I managed to quickly earn a lot of gold, literally in one day, from 0 it became 10k, brought home the native meat, revealed a level 2 Griffin Conservatory, took it immediately, no problem, broke 30 cyclops for a Pandora's Box - 15 shamans.
Found Naga Banks, to avoid the buying problem in the third week, I didn't spare the effort, spent the miner's moves and grabbed both, resulting in +28 sulfur +20k in total. Teleported home, doubled mana, ate the Dragon Fly Hive (minimal). The miner is leveling up like a king, everything's great in general, I plan to attack the opp through the secondary. But a surrender comes, due to lack of prospects.
Thanks for the game.
I confirm.
The first week was generally okay, although I immediately considered taking a restart (there's a block of 11 Sharpshooters in front of the castle), but with Wyverns and 4 basilisks for eating, the Sharpshooters went down great, with a helm +3 knowledge as a bonus. Then we go for a secondary, scouting shows it's Rampart because a Dwarf Cottage is visible. The passage is tolerable, nomads. After capturing it, I break through a "block" of upgraded troglodyte stacks to scout the entire native respawn) It turns out to be quite small and poor: Griffin Conservatory 2-4, no external dwellings, no Dragon Fly Hives. But there are Dwarves and a Dwarf Cottage, which remained untouched until the end of the game. At home I squeezed in Wyverns and basilisks at the Citadel, in Rampart I built Elves and a thousand.
The second week I spent doing who knows what: my main hero barely leveled (I had to make Bron the main, since nothing better appeared in the tavern), I sacrificed the Gnolls, partially cleared the crypts, didn't scout the Rampart respawn. But I did build a Citadel in Rampart and a Castle in the main) Didn't touch the Griffin Conservatory either: I probably couldn't have handled a level 3, and wasting a hero on scouting it was unforgivable. My opponent captured more secondaries, and both were adjacent to me, Shakti was revealing bad stats there, how to counter all this - unclear. In search of an answer I entered the treasure zone. I entered and immediately exited)
On day 131, having absolutely no idea what to do except drag things out, I capitulate.
Thanks for the game!
