We spent all the resources and a couple more on blocks. We got the starting position with moderate roads, I had a decent respawn, but only 2 roads, one into the ГО and one into the underground. On the plus side, a hero with +350, an external Hive dwelling and an external dwelling of air elementals, which I cleared immediately. Put it into Shakti's stack. But upon breaking into the underground, I ran into a block of 20+ Minotaurs guarding a Speed Scroll. The artifact was excellent, but my number of roads was basically reduced to zero. I had to run off-road onto the grass, where I found a bit of gold, and bought some birds in the fort.
On day 121, I made purchases, took a Hive with Brissa on week 8, and a mini-bank with Gelare. Then Shakti cleared 30 Minotaurs backed by a Gorgon stack, they dropped successfully, +2 Speed. I didn't get distracted searching for the town underground and ran towards the scouted treasure zone, on the way losing a Wiva to a weak stack in a Naga guardian's area.
Until the end of the week, I was clearing the treasure zone on the underground lava, took 5 Hives, 4 external Efreet dwellings, and a double Griffin Conservatory. I lost all my air elementals and 4 Wivas to 3 Faerie Dragons guarding a mini-Hive. Another 3 Wivas fell to Archmages guarding a Pandora's Box with all 5th-level skills, which I lacked the Wisdom for. And 1 bird was taken by Fanatics for 15k experience. Total: 34 Wivas, Shakti with Earth Expert, Logistics, Leadership, and Advanced Wisdom.
I still had only 1 town. Shakti returned home to replenish mana, and the relay was taken by Ciele with Water and Earth Expertise from a prison. She broke into the mud treasure zone, where right at the entrance she ran into Shackles of War + the Tome of Air behind 20+ Bone Dragons and a Helm +6 to all stats behind a horde of Pit Fiends. -2 morale on the Bone Dragons played its role: -1 Angel, 7 Efreets, and 4 Wivas. The Guardian of Earth without losses. Handed the army to Shakti, and he went into the third treasure zone, where there was a Shield +3 Attack/Defense, and then a minimal Dragon Utopia with the Captain's Hat and 2 Rings of Health. I tried to catch Solmyr during this time, using Dimension Door, but failed, and thank God (as the autopsy showed, I would have ended up in a dead end if I had tried to do so). Then Shakti took another mini-Hive and a mini-Griffin Conservatory, as well as a Sword +6, and Dimension Doored into the 4th treasure zone. On day 135, blue flags flashed in the dark, I risked going to that flash with 25 mana and ran into a blue weakling. I kill Lorelei, she drops a Cuirass +10, Stinger surrenders. Thanks for the game!
