"Newcomer-2014. Winter"

The start of the game was quite bleak in terms of both gold and resources; I spent the entire first week fighting 20 upgraded wolves. The only hope came from two external dwellings of birds (captured on the first week), a Griffin Conservatory 3-4, a Dragon Fly Hive, and a home Dragon Utopia. On day 1 week 2 turn 2, I broke through to the underground secondary area, where scouting revealed another Griffin Conservatory, a Dragon Fly Hive, and a pile of gold. On day 1 week 2 turn 5, I entered a Griffin Conservatory 2-4 in the secondary area with 20 birds and growth, but it turned out to be a level 3 one. I emerged having lost 8 birds. With such an army, there is nothing to do in a treasure zone, so I returned home and cleared the respawn. On day 1 week 3 turn 3, a royal level-1 Dragon Utopia appeared; the dragons devoured all the ducks, but gave me Boots of Speed (Resistance variant) and a Ring of the Gem. I had neither the strength nor the desire to play a two-month game clearing all treasure zones, so I went to seize the opponent's castles. His situation wasn't so rosy either, despite having an external dwelling of elves and having taken a treasure zone. On day 1 week 3 turn 7, I took the main town; on day 1 week 4 turn 3, the final battle: 5 Angels, 35 birds, 3 bears, 10 Pegasi against 11 Dragon Flies, 30 Grand Elves, and growth of Dendroids, Dwarves, and Centaurs. The Angels killed the Grand Elves on the first turn, and the opponent surrendered.
Thank you for the interesting games, and good luck in the future!
