"Newcomer-2014. Winter"

It didn't go so smoothly for him, despite finding an elven stash and eating a treasure.

[Here's a bit of complaining about the randomness on the map.]

Overall, the game went pretty well; I found an elven stash, and on the first map, I got 123456 in the citadel. I gathered second-tier creatures and split into 8 heroes. I started leveling up Jabrakas for the Grand Magus.
On the very first day, I realized that I would have problems with Tyraxor – on expert difficulty, I simply don't have time to defeat the Grand Magus in a hypothetical endgame. I was afraid to restart. I mastered the tactics with Jabrakas and advanced towards the end, but it was already too late – angels and my pegasi.

On the second week, problems began: on three resource nodes, there were no condensers or hives.
I missed my chance when I didn't rush the opponent on the second map; I was doing something pointless at that time.
I went to a treasure node, which contained a block of red lotus. At that time, the opponent appeared with birds and angels, and I was in the treasure node without a spellbook. I managed to get only an empty chest for 30+ mana, a cloak +2+2, and a staff +4 behind a group of liches, who also bit me. There was also a maxed-out ogre, and that's all I got. I exited the treasure node from the other side, and there was an exit to my own snow secondary resource.

[More complaining about the randomness on the map, although I'm to blame; I had all the chances.]

Thanks for the game, good luck in the future.
