OFB-8

We both had one restart left. I got a double and Gosha appeared, so how could I restart now? My opponent's hero appeared in the Moandor tavern for a while, and the game began. On day 115, I took a secondary hero and left Aislin with the remnants of the army in the Castle. On my turn, the computer attacked and killed the entire army and Aislin. Luckily, the computer didn't stay in the Castle but ran along the road. I placed horses in my main town and, on the next turn, used the chain spell to return the secondary hero from an army of 1 horse. The resource distribution was extremely poor, so I lost the game without building any Castles, but the double was enough. Also, I had 2 external monasteries and 1 crusader camp. On the third week, Kirr invaded the center and took my town. Her stats were higher, but looking at the armies, I saw that I was slightly ahead. I decided to clear out two corner resource nodes and, starting from the fourth week, I didn't send any heroes to those nodes. At the beginning of the second month, I could have attacked the entire army at the resource node, but instead, I decided to kill Kirr first, and I was one move short of reaching the resource node. The tavern constantly showed that my kingdom's army power was higher, so I ran around peacefully looking for items. Since my opponent's stats were higher and he had the Air book, he gathered his entire army and moved towards me. That's when the situation with the army power changed in the tavern, and I had to worry a lot. Fortunately, I got a teleport spell in the Global Map. I teleported Gosha out of the dungeon, gathered the army scattered around the resource nodes, upgraded the crusaders and griffins, and waited for my opponent in the Castle. But my opponent didn't attack the Castle; he went further into the center and stopped near my town. On my turn, I attacked him. The stats were equal, and the armies were roughly equal too, but I had the Cloak of Negation, which ultimately helped me win. Thanks for the game.
