"Newcomer-2014. Winter"

Once again I am amazed at how simple and pleasant it is to play Necropolis on Jebus Cross. On the very first day, scouting revealed 3 Griffin Conservatories and an external dwelling of horses

The respawn gave a decent layout, but very large and everything is scattered. On the first [day] I collected 2 level-1 Griffin Conservatories, ate two Dragon Fly Hives. The third one remained – in the corner, two days' travel from the main. Finished it on day 121, sending only the birds downwards. The main hero just wouldn't come, so I had to level up Kalt, fortunately Air [magic] came, then Offense.

In total, from the respawn there were 5 birds, 28 ducks (built them in the secondary town), 2 angels.
When I saw via Air scouting and a den of thieves that the opponent was in the center with stats 14-14, I decided not to rush the exit (planned for day 124). It seems it wasn't in vain – the next day the opponent had already boosted stats to 24-23, and without destructive magic and with my modest 15-6, there clearly were no chances.
Off the main road, I found an external dwelling of birds, another Dragon Fly Hive, I'm gathering. By the end of the week I ate 3 Dragon Utopias, they give little, but I have Armageddon with 20 spell power.
The opponent comes running, I first try to hit-and-run, then attack. It didn't work out.
