Winter 2014. Automated submission of seasonal reports.

01.01.2014 Dima Surmay (Blue, Stronghold, Crag Hack, Crag Hack) Def Mizrael (Red, Tower, Aine, Tiraxos) 8mm6a 217
Good spawn: second level built, 2 heroes with wolves and their external dwelling is there, gold also spawned decently + Pandora's Box for 5K, there's a Dragon Utopia on the respawn. On the first turn I put bears in the castle, captured my opponent's Tower castle, and also the village.
On the second turn I slowly started collecting Dragon Fly Hives. In the middle of the third I'm going to take the home Dragon Utopia and am building the guild in the Tower. The Dragon Utopia turned out to be minimal - gave a Titan's Gladius. I find a Fly scroll, after 2 days I fully build the guild in the Tower... on level 4 nothing useful, on level 5 Dimension Door and Explosion. On week 4 I find a max Dragon Utopia, in it: Air Elemental, Hat for level 5, red ball, and something else useless. No Air Elemental yet, but there's Flax on the map and I bought it there. At the end of the month I regretted not spending 10K gold on buying the hat from the Armor of the Damned, and 3 days later I found all the other parts. I still can't find Town Portal anywhere, and in eight towns and a bunch of scrolls there was no View Earth anywhere.
Towards the end of week 5, Gunnison comes along and takes Flax, blocks with a hero and stays the night in it. Crag is nearby and takes him out with the red ball and Shackles, having +4 speed artifacts which decides the fight. It turned out Mizrael had very poor control, only on the last day he obtained Fly.

Thanks for the game.
