Palach (red, swamp, Tazar, Alkin) def Defiant (blue, Castle, Valya, Zhabarka) cmka 137
On 111, a spread of 5 heroes, 2 of them +350 gold and Cuthbert as a bonus. But the secondary hero is blocked on the grass until day 49 by elves; there's a Pandora's Box nearby with 99 mummies.
112 I find GO griffins, a Dragon Utopia nearby, and an external dwelling of Vivi behind griffins; I took a crypt with 5 vampires awkwardly.
113 I fight through the third road, an awkward battle with horned demons, then dendroids on the snow; I found an external dwelling of lizards and another external dwelling of Vivi behind 99 zombies.
On 114, I scout the snow and see that running to that spot via fast roads takes about 4 days; the secondary hero is actually unguarded. No Griffin Conservatories, no artifacts. There is only a passage 1.5 days' travel from my spawn point to a treasure zone on the snow.
I also see that there is likely an exit from this treasure zone to the opponent's grass secondary hero, and I spotted an external dwelling of angels and a Griffin Conservatory there. So that secondary hero must be native.
From day 115 to 117, I took the external dwelling of Vivi behind zombies, a minimal gnoll dwelling, and a maximum crypt (battle axe +2, shield +3 there). Built Vivi in the castle. Captured the snow secondary hero with a weak hero.
On 121, I take a medusa dwelling and a naga bank; I send weak heroes on a 2-day journey through rough terrain to the exit onto the opponent's grass.
122 I take the Pandora's Box with mummies for 30 griffins; I take the Rampart secondary hero, and all this returns to Tazar, who breaks through to the Griffin Conservatory there; with 3-4 griffins, you can't get in any way. In the army: 11 Vivi, 50 lizards, and griffins.
On 123, I clear the external dwelling of angels and go on a roc into the treasure zone from the grass (its exit is on my snow); weak heroes take another Hive.
On 124, I scouted a Dragon Utopia near Rampart; Tazar scouted a Dragon Utopia and Shackles of War in the treasure zone. Alkin took 10 experience near Rampart and went into the treasure zone from Rampart.
On 125, Alkin takes an artifact in the Rampart treasure zone; it's very awkward and you have to wander around it; he gives all the army to Tazar, who returns to the Griffin Conservatory. A weak hero finds another Griffin Conservatory on the grass.
On 126, I take a treasure zone and a minimal dwelling. I scout and see 2 more Griffin Conservatories (all on the native secondary hero: 4 Griffin Conservatories and an external dwelling of angels), though they are probably already taken, since one is on the road right next to Castle, and next to the other stands a weak hero, and the horse is turned so that he just took it and gave the army away.
From 127 to 131, Tazar goes to the Dragon Utopia and Shackles of War from the grass. There's a Breastplate +4+4 and the rest is junk.
On 133, I emerge on the snow; I give everything to Alkin who takes a Dragon Utopia at GO, there's a Cauldron and Sphere there.
From 134 to 136, I took 2 more Dragon Utopias and got KZ. Teleported Alkin to the Tower, gathered resources for Archangels, thought angels were 100% built.
On 137, I awkwardly broke through GO and ran to the capital; the plan was to Town Portal there with Alkin, but there were no angels — they would have to be built along with the portal — however, surrender followed.
Thanks for the game.
