My opponent took one restart, and we were off.
On day 1, I reveal two Griffin Conservatories, one of them a single. There are a couple of boxes, a Ring of Speed, but no high-level external dwellings are visible.
I start scouting, and on day 1-1-2 I reveal a substantial piece of treasure zone with an observation: several Nagas, Naga Queens, and Greater Nagas. In the sands, but in plain sight there's a KZ and a Churn, I see Bracers, and along the way a Shield +12 behind Minotaurs. The center is on my side. At the respawn, I reveal two Medusa external dwellings, Boots, another box, and a couple of Hives.
On day 1-1-3, I take out all the power stacks without many losses — a single Griffin Conservatory with a Troglodyte upgrade; then with the Angel I kill the Archers for the Ring of Speed, open a Prison, but the timer was pressing — I scouted poorly and couldn't finish my moves in time.
I take both secondary towns (Towers), split my force to the other side, and transfer the army there. A Spell Book, stat boosters, the first Dragon Fly Hive (pre-Minotaur King). I pick up a promising box behind the resource piles, but it's Magic, and I have no Wisdom.
I run to the next box, while with the Peasants I meanwhile take another Hive (also a small one) and capture the second Medusa external dwelling and the Boots.
On day 1-2-1, the box has a pack of Movement — 25 Evil Eyes instead of my 10k EXP, but still decent.
I decide to continue the march through the wasteland with Gunnar, since the guards there are tough for the Hives, and a pack of Greater Cyclopes is guarding Armor +10 SP.
Along the way, I capture a KO, a Sword +3, Ribs, a Helm +3. With it, I split to do a double Mana, then to the Stables, and on day 1-2-5 I leisurely finish my scouting run. I level Earth Magic on two Nagas (Nagas), and run to the KZ.
My opponent sees my stats in the Tavern (10-20-15-7) and decides not to continue.

Thanks for the game.
Thanks for the game, it wasn't just the stats that decided it — I had a small throw on day 1-2-3, thought for a couple of moves about what I'd do (surrender or if I could somehow pull it off), decided to surrender)), well, without a log and Gunnar's pathfinding it's hard to catch up or outpace in the treasure zone)):smile21:
