07.10.2013 Gomunguls (red, Citadel, gurni), The_ (green, Conflux, random, fire, fire) def злой_романтик (blue, Castle, valeska, mullich), Frol Off (brown, Necropolis, galtran) JC 126.

We played in two sessions. This time we decided not to delay the alliance, so even before the start of the game – a pact was made with Vitalya :).

I don't really remember the first part of the game anymore, so in short.
At respawn one Dragon Fly Hive for 4 Wyverns, external dwelling of psychos, external dwelling of water, earth – that's all for weak content. But we got good artifacts thrown in, +5 all, +3+3 necklaces, with this stuff I went to the center on day 121, Fire leveled up strongly at respawn (20k experience from pandora's boxes), expert armor, expert attack, expert fire, expert logistics, scholar, pathfinding, expert wisdom.

The reds were already operating in the center, the center turned out rather dull (four beehives + 1 Dragon Utopia + several chests + several artifacts). I started eating up the lower sands without roads, took a +4+4 crown there, a chest, a sphere of air, a Dragon Fly Hive. Meanwhile Vitalya spots two fat chests and a Dragon Utopia – rushes there, but on their turn the blues break a Dragon Utopia (122) and steal the Dragon Utopia from under our noses – though losing almost everything there. This obvious point is only confirmed – the blues have an alliance with the browns, the blues' scout hero is ready to give artifacts to galtran (hat +6 all, Ring of Oblivion and other goodies). And then we see goshan, with 600+ skeletons, 6 angels, who also beats his own Dragon Utopia and runs to the blue for artifacts.

Vitalya on his turn manages to kill the hydras and take two chests for 20k experience and fly away with a basic town portal to the central town. Then the blue passes artifacts to goshan, and on his turn the brown attacks, honestly speaking – I had already written off gurni (there were 16 Wyverns, 5 Ruhs, 3 freak, 40 wolves), against 600++ skeletons, 6 angels and stats in total higher than gurni's. But the ballista + mass haste + Vitalya's hands and the not-so-clear moves from the brown allow not only to survive, but also to drive goshan away. Meanwhile I run to the reds' Inferno village to learn Dimension Door + Meteor, simultaneously breaking the sphere of air for gurni. I leave the entire army on a scout hero from a sienna prison level 10, expert air (then he'll decide later). After gurni's victory over the undead, he also drives away mullich with ~20 Wyverns (the army was 20 wolves, 5 Ruhs, 2 ducks), helped by mullich having no mana, and 46 Marksmen fell after the very first bolt on day 412. Then with only a ballista a pyramid with 60 multi-colored golems is taken – there's Summon Earth Elementals.

Mullich on his turn returns, attacks sienna, but gets mass haste and another -7 ducks, buys back again. Meanwhile Fire, having learned magic, buys back from the reds' scout hero – redeploys in the center and attacks galtran, who is heading into the center with 200 skeletons, with all the artifacts. There was an unpleasant combo of antimagic + armaggedon, I leave galtran with 26 upgraded skeletons +24 regular ones, which he raised after me, and I retreat so galtran couldn't buy back himself. On gurni's turn, he covers galtran, leaving him no chance to buy back – mass haste + tactics.

Thanks everyone for the game!

P.S. As always, the recording can be watched on my channel.
