You often see this scene at a railway station. Hearing the characteristic sound of an accelerating electric train, someone runs to the platform, still hoping to catch the train that has already left.
What am I getting at? With one minute left on the timer, I rushed into a contested town, hoping to pass the army along a chain, find the fleeing companion, buy an army from him, then dig up some fast hero, pass the army to him, and so on.
The result was predictable – I was defeated in the Castle without an army.
Thanks for the game.
