16.02.2014 Juristis (blue, Fortress, Tazar) def VanjaM (red, Necropolis, Galthran), Jebus Cross, 122
Spent all rests, Vanya had 1 left. All the draws were below average, the last one wasn't great either. The spread was pretty good though, 8 heroes, and even 2 native ones came through, but the only interesting objects were the Griffon Conservatory + treasure map + 3 resources behind a crowd of liches. Took a couple of stat boosters on 111.
112 - blocks on all roads, a horde of mummies for a ring of sulfur + resources, a crowd of upgraded harpies for a pandora's box, 10-19 unicorns for a golden bow. Still no treasure maps. There are 2 external dwellings of gnolls and 1 of lizardmen. I scout with a weak hero 20-49 gold golems for a pandora's box near the road, only 20 golems. I attack with Tazar, losing 11 gnolls and a fly, I clear it, even the ballista survives. In the box are 60 upgraded gnolls. Dragon got earth magic, have a spare backup hero.
113 - upgrade gnolls, I attack the mummies, there are 79 of them, they fall without issues, the ballista survives on 1 hp thanks to morale on the gnolls. Tazar gets earth magic at level 3. Next I take a scholar, get scholar skill. I continue killing a crowd of treants on the road and find an external dwelling of hydras for 20+ upgraded lizardmen and a breastplate +5 defense behind a crowd of upgraded golems.
114 - deliver 2 wyverns, the lizardmen run away, the hydra external dwelling falls without problems thanks to another morale. Then golems without losses, I find 2 pandora's boxes, the first for 75 upgraded gargoyles, 10k experience, gives pathfinding, logistics, and tactics, then the second box + external dwelling of wyverns + resources for 10 unicorns, gives another 90 gnolls. I transfer home, upgrade gnolls, the army checks the Griffon Conservatory found in the swamp, 100+ griffins. Bron clears the guard of the naga bank.
115 - I take the naga bank, level 3 with no speed artifact, 200 gnolls get wrecked! Then 2 crypts, the army moves to Taz, he takes the wyvern external dwelling, finds a Golem Guardian and is defeated by it. Golem Guardian - 54 nagas with speed artifact. I build a Mage Guild at home, replenish mana, knowledge is only 5, so mana is pretty decent.
116 - I check with a weak hero the Griffon Conservatory in the swamps, it's level 2. I take it with Bron, losing 4 harpies, 3 lizardmen, and 6 gnolls. Tazar runs to the Golem Guardian. I set up chain for the Griffon Conservatory + treasure map behind the liches.
117 - Dragon clears the liches, 27 with speed artifact, -5 lizardmen. Treasure map minimal losses (-10 gnolls), Griffon Conservatory level 3 (-2 wyverns and 25 gnolls). Tazar before the Golem Guardian on haste. Hydras in the fort at home.
121 - I place a market, exchange almost all resources. Dragon runs along the road, takes the golden bow and finds a treasure map behind beholder. Managed to move the army thanks to pathfinding on Bron and Dragon, treasure map for 6 wyverns. Then near the castle I take a level 3 naga bank, buy more hydras and wyverns from home and a hydra from the external dwelling. The army arrives at Taz: 5 hydras, 15 wyverns, 22 lizardmen, 170 upgraded gnolls, 5 angels.
I attack the Golem Guardian, it falls without problems. In the sands: treasure map for 6 wyverns, gold mine, arena, and a prison with Crag Hack level 5. Crag Hack takes the central Stronghold city. Taz can't reach the city and blocks the path to it from the necropolis respawn side (view earth exploration). I also buy Galthran in the city and scout a couple of beehives and a shield +6.
122 - On their turn, red sees me in the center and surrenders, as they can't clear the Golem Guardian in the next couple of turns. Thanks for the game!
