ShtrafBat - Lucky Bastards 1st round
19.10.2013 RoninHW(blue, random, Dungeon, Arlak, Gunar) def Lem(red, random, Necro, Xi, Sandro) 231 8mm6a
A long game on a poor map generation with Dragon Utopia and no control on either side; I got lucky with Gunar and the Town Portal scroll.
Pleasant start with stables near the Castle, an external dwelling of Minotaurs, and gloves at the respawn. Pulled out Gunar, who was very helpful without air control throughout the game. In the first week, I took the native AI's city and the same-faction Minotaur dwelling in a citadel with a portal.
In the second week, I took one confluence and the central village. Found a Town Portal scroll and started building up the Mage Guild. Scouting the native swamp treasure zone.
By the third week, contact occurred with the Opponent in the central zone. The zone was key on the map since both were running without control.
On the 4th, I took 2 Dragon Utopia, one of which was behind a gate guardian. Absolutely useless (boots of levitation, magic resistance artifacts, etc.); only the shield was useful, as it was what I lacked for AOTD. Settled in the central zone, taking the village and controlling the Opponent's movements.
Throughout the game, I was ahead in stats and army, but feared Sandro's special ability since I had no strong combat spells. Therefore, I consciously tried to drag out the game hoping to find a crystal ball while having AOTD assembled.
On the 5th, ran through another treasure zone; besides a small power-up, I gathered nothing. Took the cities from the Opponent and AI.
The 6th became key: found an uncleared treasure zone where there were 2 Dragon Utopia; one was slag by tradition, the second was a five-stack with excellent stat artifacts: sword +12, armor +4+4, kettle and necklace +3 to all. And most importantly, in this treasure zone, I found the Cloak of Renunciation. Took the Castle from the cast-AI; at his respawn, I collected 2 confluences and upgraded Archangels. The next day, the Opponent appears within reach; I jump between castles, collect growth, and attack. Huge advantage in stats and army, GG after the first round.
Thanks for the game!
