Plan B vs USW. 1st basket, 1st game
wowa (red, Dungeon, Ajit, Adèle) def BISHOP (blue, Ramp, Malcolm, Malcolm, Mephala) 144@anarchy
agreed to play on 200%
used all restarts (had a deal with Mullich against Inferno, but on day 2 the scout showed absolutely nothing, including resources)
started playing Dungeon on Ramp, and the deal was not great at all, although maybe I just haven't played on Impossible in a while
but anyway, Dungeon doesn't build, lived off trades, after capturing my two native secondaries with a Fort and Barbarian behind shifted guards in a treasure zone appendix, next to which is an underground cartographer, nowhere to run)
went deep into roadless terrain and grabbed a Resurrection scroll, which helped a lot later)
main hero is Moandor with a hint of necro-building :D
on day 115 I gather all the small fry from 3 Dungeons, upgrade Harpies, hit a stack of Magogs for a box (all of week 2) and run along the road to secondary villages
week result -- homes have Eyes in a Citadel, another secondary has Eyes in a Fort, markets everywhere, 7 heroes, no serious external dwellings revealed
on week 2 finally reached an Angel external dwelling :smile03:
take it, army goes to Ajit, who opened up the entire underground, except for that very lava field where Moandor was running
place portals everywhere, capture Dragon Fly Hives via chain, plans are to beat artifacts for mana, double Moandor who got Earth and Intelligence, and at the start of week 3 hit a Dragon Utopia in a hypertreasure zone)
but on day 131 Adèle arrives! :eek: plans change somewhat -- I buy her at a Barbarian town and the same day she's level 9 with Earth and Air :)
on day 132, after doubling and leveling Earth to Advanced, she beats a Rust Dragon Utopia and breaks into the treasure zone -- it's just huge, with wings in a couple of days, as well as a КЗ, КВ and a blue cap, but at the opposite edge of the map :smile35:
day 133 -- 1st Dragon Utopia, day 134 Dungeon's hordes in treasure zone, mother gets wings, day 135 1st join, but a pack of Arch Devils, day 136 Fort-Inferno, whose hordes are beaten/captured with wings for free artifacts +11 to everything total, another Dragon Utopia, buy/level Cira for the heap :rolleyes:
day 137 Adèle frees a prison with Crag, but he doesn't reach the Necropolis Fort, from which via a chain of prisons one could immediately devour all the books plus the cap, rest of the day Adèle rests, but the next day she already fights into a Castle at the map's edge, where they brought her both the purse and КВ, the rest she devours herself, and portals to the central Dungeon for Vortex)
day 142 -- mother's mana over 1K, hordes with wings/books collect everything lying around, including boots (bought gloves at an artifact merchant) another Dragon Utopia, a vial for Elixir (both rings already had), corner Castle, where I immediately started building Stables to support Adèle's Logistics, who entered the 8th slot)))
day 143, after devouring another Dragon Utopia along the way, camping near the elevator up, the tavern shows an army advantage and significant stat edge
day 144 mother emerges to the surface, reveals Shields and towns, jumps to the nearest one, a horde with Shackles crashes there (such a cheater horde :D )
Adèle has a couple more jumps, a horde with Dimension Door reveals the nearest Shields -- and hello -- Mephala with the purse!
I attack, the opponent sees Shackles and writes GG
as it turned out, Ramp had an even worse deal -- native secondary Fort, which took half a week to reach, and a second one, completely blocked by a pack of upgraded Pikemen -- you can't call that anything but generator mockery :smile51: which ultimately decided the game on 200%
thanks for the game :)
