We didn't respawn at all, started right away. Opponent goes Rampart + Jenova, I have Malcolm with Archery at the tavern, I scout the respawn - there's a decent amount of gold + a lot of wood (for teching up). I decide to play.
112. I find a bunch more of various resources - crypts, gardens, chests. Already have 4 heroes. Leveling up the Centaurs.
113. Already 6 heroes, I'm bringing the Centaur upgrade, almost everyone is busy gathering - the respawn is very rich in gold.
114.Jabarkas arrives - total 7 heroes, I decide to make him my main. I take Necro via chain - the passage guards were a horde of Gnolls and a pack of upgraded Gnolls. I upgrade the Wood Elves into Grand Elves - I have 7 of them, none of the other heroes got any.
115.I find an external dwelling of Dwarves behind the Hats - I decide to take it, build the dwellings and upgrade them. I capture a Helm +2 Knowledge behind a pack of blue Faeries, there's also a chest there. I hire Tanta in the Necropolis town, go gather resources. I have a cheap Scout - it reveals the opponent fairly well.
116.I planned to find Crystals near the mine next to Necro, but there's a block of Centaurs there; I abandon the idea of building Pegasi, Dendroids, and Unicorns, because I have 0 Crystals. I decide to build dwelling levels 1 2 3 in the Castle, especially since the external dwelling of Dwarves - with the upgrade it won't be bad at all. I take a Crypt, which is again the minimum, chain to the next one. I see that the opponent has Necro + Necromancer's Robe +10%, Sword +3, and Gurrisson. I thought my situation was bad.
117.Everything on the respawn is cleared and gathered; from the scout I see that the opponent has broken through his portal and has broken through one of the two guards to me - a horde of non-upgraded Golems. Just in case, I pull back my main so he can't reach me if he breaks through the Troglodytes.
121.Ivor arrives with 9 Wood Elves :smile04: . I gather all the Dwarves from the external dwelling + buy the dwellings, upgrade - I get 50 of them, which is pretty good. About 90 Centaurs, 30 Grand Elves. I go to Necro to buy a spell book for my main, then to break through the Troglodytes.
122.I break through the Troglodytes and position my main with the entire army at the entrance to the Snow. I think I'll capture the opponent's main on the next turn, since I saw him go deep into his Necro-respawn.
123.I take the opponent's main with un-purchased Mages, while also killing 2 Horsemen; I also enter two empty Necro towns of the opponent. 5 towns, income 5k :D .
124.The opponent recaptures both Necro towns; I run to one of them, where Clavius and Gurrisson are already stationed, seemingly with the entire army, but I can't reach them.
125.The opponent, seeing my army, runs hoping to capture my main, but I attack. Final battle: Jabarkas 8 1 1 3, Slow, Archery, 30 mana, 30 Grand Elves, 80 Centaurs, 50 upgraded Dwarves, 7 Mages; Gurrisson 13 2 2 2, 4 mana, 50 non-upgraded Skeletons, 40 upgraded Skeletons, 4 Vampires, about 90 Hats, 4 Nagas. No real chance.
Thanks for the game!
