First time playing on Panic, and on 4 min at that. )))
Maria lightning-fast picked 3 resources and we started playing. =) Ivor with 4 elves and Kyrre in the tavern, I decide not to respawn. Two inconvenient external dwellings of dwarves spawned (I never took them). On 115 I broke through 30 Evil Eyes to the adjacent respawn, took a dwarf dwelling with 50 dwarves there, a skeleton, and 2 Griffin Conservatories with 2 griffons each. ((( Then on 126 I broke into the treasure zone, took a shield +4. On 133 Tazar the Necromancer arrives at my place with an army: 60 gr. lizardmen, 10 Wyverns, 10 lizardmen, 2 angels, 30 dragonflies, and 160 gnolls. O.o The gnolls were especially terrifying. I return troops to the castle via chain and split up with Kyrre. Tazar reached the castle and gave me a runaround. On 137 I quickly take a Naga Bank with 30 Nagas (where the guard had been cleared earlier and Tazar didn't go there), and that saved me. On 142 I have 7k for buying + Taz on my land + large troops on my side + 1 speed helped me win a battle where the main spell on my side was Haste. 11 unicorns, 20 elves, 24 dendroids, and 1 griffon remained. I went to Tazar's respawn. Captured his swamp village and Necromancer's castle. During this time, Maria the Mage took out all my elves and 1 angel. Having gathered enough castles, I look into the tavern, and there they tell me I'm losing on meat! O.o How so?! And then on 146 Tazar runs in with: 90 gnolls, 55 lizardmen, 4 Wyverns, 8 basilisks, and 30 dragonflies. I retreat, wait for 211. I buy growth by exchanging resources to zero and attack on 212. Haste decided the outcome again.
Thanks for the game.
