25.08.13. Pit for LM (blue, random Castle, random Sonya, Luna) def Iamsamstan (red, random Tower, random Halon, Fafner), panic, 126.
In general, we played several games on panic with random towns; this one was more interesting.
111 - rolled Castle, starting army is excellent: 50+ spearmen, 20 archers, sprites, and gremlins. But right outside the castle there's an immediate block - 20+ gr. archers. Decided to skip a day, upgrade my archers, and then fight. Yes, we're playing because of Luna, of course :).
112 - broke through, losing 2 archers and a few sprites. The grass ended right away. On the dirt - iron golems, fought the battle kind of stupidly, lost a dozen spearmen and one archer. On the road, immediately some unpleasant shooter blocks, I go around them. At the respawn - an external dwelling of spearmen. Bought +1 Attack. Still only 4 heroes...
113 - the road to a secondary hero unexpectedly leads to a portal and... ends. Found an external marketplace and a few piles of gold, but the fifth hero just won't hire...
114 - things get cool, as two consort buildings and several chests are discovered above the capital. Meanwhile, Luna doesn't stop trying to find a secondary hero off-road. A prison with Aine is captured.
115 - a third consort is found nearby. Well, that's it, free stuff...
116 - scouting reveals there's no secondary hero, but there is a sea... I scrounge up the last money, preparing to transfer the army to the external spearmen dwelling.
117 - Luna stands by for splitting, the external spearmen dwelling is taken. Cavalry and a citadel are built.
121 - I buy out my native hero, defeat Luna, stable, well up to 90 mana (already have advanced intelligence), run to the consorts. Need +1 more Attack and some griffins, 1-2 for a start... Well, and expert fire magic, naturally.
122 - on level-up they give intelligence and knowledge... Frustrated, I immediately lose 10 archers on empty ground, not safeguarding against morale...
123 - I capture and check all three consorts. 2-4, 2-4, and 2. Well, I'll have to start with the far one...
124 - I take a chest for experience. Fortunately, they give both fire magic and attack power, so I can go in with a few sprites.
125 - I burn through the level 2 one; with angels, any of them can be taken. The second turns out to be level 3...
126 - and the third is also level 3. I give the entire army to Tyraxor, who has been waiting by the portal for a long time, grabbing a few money-generating buildings on the way. I kill a bunch of different neutrals, including a dozen angels guarding the passage to the treasure zone, rush through two zones, and appear on the red's necro secondary.
They weren't expecting me :)
Thank you for the game.
