04.07.13. Pit for LM (red, Necropolis, Clavius, Galtran) def Akella (blue, Castle, Catherine, Mullich), 2sm4d(3), 124.
I took my restarts, my opponent did too. In the end, it turned out fine, but if I had dragged it out, it's unknown how it would have ended.
111 - arriving are Eislinn, Galtran (without skeletons), Dimer, Bron with 6 basilisks. No one to level up on, but I immediately clear the prison behind the goblins - there's Lorelei and harpies. Respawn on the surface, roads are average. There's an external market, which in my noobishness I never used, even though I desperately needed money at the start of week two...
112 - scouting. One exit is the swamp behind mages, the second is dirt behind gr. flies. I opened a chest for 1k, advanced necromancy. There are also necro-boots, armor +3.
113 - a crypt with 5 vamps, liches joined. Broke through the flies to a secondary town. My home town, there's an external vampire dwelling visible.
114 - another crypt with 5 vamps. Eislinn with liches cleared a couple of small blocks for gold.
115 - another small crypt, on the way to the secondary town I hit a block - elves. I need knights. Built them, but couldn't bring them in time.
116 - cleared shield +2, captured my secondary town, where a Mage Guild is being built. Also picked up speed boots.
117 - at home 1-6 in the Citadel, in the secondary town - just liches. Galtran got earth magic. Plan is not clear yet.
121 - problems with gold and bad chains. Bought knowledge, replenished mana. Decided to rush off-road, there is a path, and it's close.
122 - cleared armor +3, and Galtran meanwhile with liches from the secondary town and basilisks took a crypt with 5 vamps.
123 - picked up necro boots from a large horde of magogs, broke through to the opponent, intercepted a hero. Total: 3-6-9-30, expert armor and earth, 290 skeletons, 6 basilisks, 5 knights, 9 liches. All necessary magic available.
124 - I keep running. And there stands Mullich. 100+ spearmen, 3 champions, 35 archers and 17 griffins. Combat stats roughly the same as mine, but worse in magic. The fight was won very easily - the skels killed half the spearmen in one go, and they killed only 8 in return.
Thank you for the game.
