Used all restarts.
111 - Shakti has 2 stacks, level 2. Troglodytes total 120. I find a Griffin Conservatory-1 with Guardhouse, take it immediately. Nice start, but low on gold.
112 - I see boots, can't figure out how to get there. I take the Helm +4 and Shakti fights ~90 mummies on the road for a Pendant of Lightning - the mummies really messed around, once after removing the retaliation they ran the other way, another time after removing the retaliation the remaining ones blocked the "needed" path. But at least Earth Magic leveled up. The roads are very long, the only good thing visible is the Armor +5 behind Diamond Golems on the way to GO.
113 - Shakti fights 35 Vampires for +1+1 Attack/Knowledge, Scouting, I find the path to the boots. GO is Crystal Dragons, alternative - 20+ Giant Hydras. It's several turns from the main to there, planning to split on 116, *2 mana and run there. Just need to find what to beat that GO with.
114 - I take the boots with the scout, find a Dragon Utopia with 50+ Dragon Flies. I take it, fewer and fewer Troglodytes remain. Scouts find a Pandora's Box with 50+ Nomads, a Dragon Fly Hive, and another Dragon Utopia with 10+ Giant Ifrits. At home I Portal Summon a Dragon.
Next turn I planned to bring the Dragon and take the Pandora's Box + Dragon Fly Hive + second Dragon Utopia, but my opponent was unlucky, entered the Dragon Fly Hive without checking, it was max, losing.
Thanks for playing.
I confirm. I attacked hive without checking it with army from town only because Craig Hack was strong already with exp off/armor and 14 attack. I was thinking that i can take even full one and did not wanted to retreat, but 12 flies left and killed behemot. Thx for game.
