20.06.2014 Falcone (red, Stronghold, Crag Hack) def Svetogor (blue, Castle, Valeska) Jebus Cross, 135

After my 2 restarts and 3 from the opponent, a respawn opened with 4 Dragon Fly Hives and a box with 20-49 Griffins. On day 2, in a difficult fight (I was planning to remove retaliation from Griffins, which suddenly started retaliating 2 attacks), I broke the box — got 50 Wolves. I discovered 2 more Dragon Fly Hives, and an external dwelling of birds was also captured.

Half the respawn was blocked by Monks standing on the road; the other part, revealed by scouting, was a vast roadless area where, far in the distance, a Griffin Conservatory and one more Dragon Fly Hive were visible. I decided to use the Wolves to collect the Dragon Fly Hives, level up Crag Hack, and make a quick exit to the center.

Money was a problem — barely managed to build Bears in the Citadel. Crag Hack leveled up well — after taking a box with 5k experience behind Basilisks, he Experted Earth and Air by the end of the week, collected 29 Wyverns from 6 Dragon Fly Hives, took the level 1 Griffin Conservatory, also found Boots and got Logistics. The Guarded Object was from a group of Minotaurs.

I managed to exit on 124. I broke the Guarded Object and immediately messed up — ran forward along the road, looked back — saw a Hat covering the entire 5th level behind Cows, went back for it, ran along the road again, spending about 1.5-2k movement on this maneuver.

I captured the castle in the center. Using Earth and Air scouting, I tracked the opponent's position. In the center, I picked up a Helm granting +10 Mana, found the Angelic Portal, took several Dragon Fly Hives and a Dragon Utopia, which gave good loot — Sword of Justice and Armor providing +3 to Spell Power.

The opponent appeared on 134 and stopped in front of a Dragon Utopia. I decided to engage him immediately, although I feared that by this timing the opponent might have collected home Dragon Utopias and found the Red Orb or Cape. At that point, my army had 1 Angel, 12 Thunderbirds, and 47 Wyverns + Implosion at 1200. Stats: 16 18 11 8, against Valeska's 18 8 4 5, whose main army consisted of 9 Archers, 8 Champions, and 12 Wyverns.

The FB Implosion quickly decided the outcome of the battle. By the way, it would have been interesting to fight this battle with the Red Orb.

Thanks for the game!
