wowa (red, Necropolis, Clavius) def RoninHW (blue, Rampart, Kyrre) 2sm4d 127

as it turned out, we were playing the wrong template :eek: we scribbled a sm, my opponent generated, and instead of 2sm4d(3) he created 2sm4d :confused: and I only noticed it by the middle of week 2, when I saw a village instead of a fort, before that I was stuck on my own respawn, because the only road besides the GO was blocked by 5-9 behemoths behind the Dragon Fly Hive and an art
but, despite this, I didn't restart, and guided by clause 5 of the standard rules regarding mutual agreements, we decided to finish this template

about the game -- I spawned in the underground, but as a bonus got a necklace of speed :smile13: during week 1, due to the block in the only passage, I scoured my spawn and hoarded skeletons for the scouted Griffin Conservatory 3-4, helped by the un-pixied necro-cloak! but still, I only raised about 200 bones, and built 1-5 in the Citadel, so I first checked the conservatory with a weak stack -- it was a three, manageable, so I upgraded the bones for it, but few survived :( though +3 angels :) then I sent the weak stack further, and they take the Dragon Fly Hive via roadless terrain behind the sultans, where the remaining skeletons die
then a chain is cleared through virgin land for scouting, where the first contact with blue happens, and the weak stack returns to Clavius, and he jumps on the behemoths, and there are 3 stacks of 3 with ancient ones, which in the first round get morale into Wyverns, then more morale, in short they killed all the bones and Wyverns, I enter the Dragon Fly Hive almost without a power stack! max scaling, of course :D no matter how I tried to save the angel, they killed it, 2 remain, plus 12 ducks, I start necroing for the 3rd time :smile04: I ran to the Rampart village, scout the overview -- bare! and I send Clavius rampaging :smile29:
and then out of nowhere Kyrre pops up, well she just had to be right there, but just outside the scouting range at that :smile04: there are 6 horses, 4 pegasi, 30 eared ones, 9 lumberjacks, about 50 Centaurs and singles
I buy back with the book, losing the angel, but managed to reduce the number of grand ones to 7
though Clavius could have died, if the elves had gotten morale, they were dealing exactly 50 per shot :rolleyes:
the weak stack consists of 12 ducks, 4 liches, and about 100 skeletons on a bronze horse, but Kyrre is one cell short to attack! I buy back in the village, necro a bit more, visit the well, kill the singles with the weak stack and attack -- tactics, mass haste and opp writes GG

thanks for the game :)
