An epic game turned out. Spawn gave me a Griffin Conservatory and nothing else, but I didn't restart, and that was a mistake. In the teleport there's a native secondary, but a tiny respawn with a small amount of gold. The passage is guarded by Liches, I go back and have to cut around the mountains through necro neutral territory. There's nothing there either, but at the exit I find a chest behind green zombies. Spent a long time kiting them, 8 shots, all in direct fire and finishing in melee. The damage was ticking perfectly — couldn't add or subtract a single point. Thought I'd get out and it'd be fine, I take the chest — magic up to level 3, damn, bad timing, I needed experience.

Right then I'm counting resources for mages and I'm short 1 sulfur to build them, so I end up with Golems in the fort, thousands in the secondaries and markets I think, need to break through the passage, the guard is 140 Behemoths, I have 119 Gremlins, 8 Golems, and a few Gargoyles. I jumped in, thought I'd lose, but miraculously using all my shots and switching to melee, I came out with 101 Stone Gargoyles and 3 Golems thanks to favorable terrain for the fight.

Next on day 122 I picked up the nest of Air Elementals, on the last move I entered the castle and refilled my mana.

123 — splitting

124 — the Griffin Conservatory level 2 at home, though I had Oil there, it went kind of badly — that one remaining Griffin kept ruining the entire battle, again I walked the razor's edge of defeat, I pass the army to a scout hero, they repel it and get +3 knowledge

125 — only now before the General with 112 mana.

126 — before entering the treasure zone on the sand. On my turn I break through my General, the blue player goes the opposite way and they come towards me

127 — I took a couple of hives with 14 Wyverns, Tazar can take my castle, though he doesn't see it, but he's heading into the treasure zone too, following me through my passage, killing 2 of my scouts and not reaching Solmyr with the Machine just 500 movement points short.

131 — I take 3 more hives and go into the cluster of trees down through the treasure zone, leaving Tazar 2 hives so he gets distracted by them; they're located separately, and he didn't light the candle on my respawn, thereby buying me a bit of space. Inside the treasure zone there's 1 scout, Iona (will help a lot later).

132 — another +4 hives (49 Wyverns). I set up a chain through my passage into the treasure zone, meanwhile the blue player's scouts are gathering in another passage into the treasure zone, which is closer to blue

133 — Finally, a blue scout catches up to Iona, but the shooter dies in battle; Tazar is 2 steps away from her. Iona gives all the meat to Tant, he takes a hive with the Gremlins and stops before another one, Iona goes back past Tazar and kills 2 blue scouts at the treasure zone entrance; Octavia from the chain above drives off a third one, and from the table comes Solmyr with a buyout of blue and mages

Meanwhile, Tazar didn't go my way but got distracted by 2 more isolated hives off to the side, and a chance to win appears. At that moment I had little mana, 73 dragons, but I think Tazar's battle stats would have carried it, though overall it would have been about 50/50 since all my Gremlins were devoured by Wyverns, and Swamp had around 50 shooters. There were 7 Angels and about 25 baby dragons.

134 — I take 2 more hives (they count toward the 73), my scout runs up to pass the army and have Tant split against Tazar. Tazar runs out of the treasure zone so I can't pass the army, but on day 135 the army successfully passes and Tant splits against neutrals.

After that I captured all the castles, Tazar ran for one more leftover hive in the treasure zone, dug up a shield +4+4 in a grave. I upgraded the Wyverns in the blue player's capital before Tazar arrived for the final battle and accepted the fight there, since Tazar had nowhere left to eat, and he had only one hero left. In the final battle: 220 mana, Mass Haste, Mass Slow, Blind, Lightning Bolt for 235, Tant 5 12 7 12 against Tazar 8 17 5 4, he only has Oil and Haste on one unit.

Thanks for the game
