On day 2 found an external dwelling of minotaurs and a double village, Shakti on week 1 took another village and scraped together some gold to buy minotaurs, and on 123 with 20 minotaurs and 100 troglodytes, with expert attack entered a Griffin Conservatory 4! came out without troglodytes and with a loss of 4 minotaurs but with 4 angels. Then took another Griffin Conservatory 2, captured 2 computers. On 132 took the first Dragon Utopia, 134 the second Dragon Utopia gave some stat KZ. Then collected dwarves in treasuries and at respawns, broke a couple of Dragon Utopias. In short, the opponent had no chance left.
