The first 10 days of the game were pretty boring — I fended off resources, killed the green Inferno computer opponent, built up my town, scouted, etc. Tazar got junk stats at levels 2-3, I chose Learning, but then the rolls went well — Earth, Offense, and Logistics in a row. Around mid-second week I went through wasteland into one of the central treasure zones, grabbed a Dragon Fly Hive with 6 Wyverns there, found nothing else, then went through wasteland again into the second central zone — also underground, on lava. There I killed 96 Greater Demons for a chest with 17k XP, then found several hives and a Griffin Conservatory (mini), as well as a Dragon Utopia. I planned to gather everything scouted and break the Dragon Utopia at day 132, but the scout hero couldn't handle 20+ Greater Minotaurs for a Dragon Fly Hive on a snowy adjacent zone without Wyverns — lost the growth +65 Lizardmen +11 Snipers. Had to wait another 2 days, upgraded the Wyverns and took the Dragon Utopia only at day 134. But I bought the spell book for Tazar, having finally reached the central Tower village. The Dragon Utopia gave Water spell book, +2 spell power, necklace with +3 spell power and knowledge, and a shield +12.
I kept scouting, by the end of the week I took a double (pink swamp), the next week I found 2 more Dragon Utopias — one in the internal treasure zone of the computers, the second in my own internal zone. The first turned out to be a mini with Titan's Cuirass, and the second was a double with a Blue Cap. Though there was no Air magic; for the last slot I took Water. With Dimension Door and Flight I took the purple Rampart. Soon I caught Gretchin who had walked into a trap — eliminated 8 Angels with imps and 20 birds with monarchs, then came a ransom.
Built 3 guilds, including Tower's; nowhere gave Town Portal. I took 2 more Dragon Utopias — one was total junk with a Black Sphere, the second was for stats, gave Sword of Justice, Necklace of Grace, and another shield +12. Also picked up a Griffin Conservatory up to 10 Angels. Tazar with Boots of Speed, a stable, and Expert Logistics ran great with Angels and Monarchs at 3600 MP.
At day 215 caught and killed the opponent's growth on his underground adjacent zone; there I also took a max Griffin Conservatory and a Cyclops dwelling with 8. The next turn I went into his corner and finally took a chest with all of level 4.
Day 216 — the opponent uses Gretchin to reclaim the Stronghold of the former blue computer that I had once taken from him. Crag Hack teleports there and jumps for something (as it turned out, a Ring of Life) into the territory of my Rampart (the former purple).
Day 216 mine — with Town Portal I gather the army from 2 swamps, resulting in 69 Monarchs, 16 Greater Behemoths, 75 Greater Lizardmen, 185 Greater Gnolls, singles of Serpent Flies, and 14 Angels. Taz with 43 defense, mana under 100, but Crag has only 27 mana.
Crag with 8 Harpies, 40+ Ogre Magi, and 26 Wyverns.
Round 1 — I cast Mass Prayer and with +2 speed crash Angels into Wyverns (-23 units) and Monarchs into Harpies (the whole stack). Opponent says thank you for the game and casts a farewell Armageddon with Sorcery, after which I have 8 Angels and 50 Wyverns left. Thanks!
