Shakti came with 2 stacks and a Manticore lair under the castle + 2 roads — we play.
I build Manticores in the fort, take the Griffin Conservatory 1 with a strategic necklace +1 to speed cleared nearby. I break through to the center, and there's a Citadel village and it's unclear where to go next. I turn around, go down the other road, picking up a Pandora's box with 80 Troglodytes along the way. Before the other exit to the center, I see a Dragon Fly Hive and a Naga Bank 2 — I take them. On week 3, I cleanly reach the center without growth for 3 weeks, see red flags. I kill a couple of scrubs, visit the library. The next turn I see Galthran with a army worse than mine, but 5-9 angels, and fear of his mana supply pushes me onward. I kill Müllich, fall slightly short of the upgrade structures. On my turn, Galthran attacks, puts his angels in front of the Troglodytes, and seeing he has no chance, surrenders.
Thanks for the game.
