"Newcomer-2014. Summer"

I resigned. My opponent had 2 more restarts; from the start, about 20 Lizardmen. In the first week, I cleared the respawn. Near the Castle but behind the mountains, I burned an external dwelling of Lizardmen and went there until Day 117, clearing crypts and small guards along the way. I placed Wyverns, a Citadel, upgraded Serpent Flies and Lizardmen, placed Basiliks. On the second week, I built the Mage Guild, bought a book for Vistana, cleared secondary skills. The first Inferno nearby had an external dwelling of Efreeti; I cleared the dwelling, put a scout hero on a group of Serpent Flies and Efreeti, and sent them for Boots (also about 4-5 days one way). The second Dungeon, when I was breaking through (with a scout hero), I lost about 20 group Lizardmen and 2 Wyverns (27 left), but tempo was more important. I was broke on gold; by the end of the second week, I barely scraped together enough for another hero (before that I was running around with 5). I revealed the map, 3 unclaimed treasure chests—joy knew no bounds. I just ended my turn and saw my opponent coming at me through the Monks with a Gundula; thankfully, he didn't reach the Castle. I stole a chest and some gold with a scout hero, tried to get out to him, but there was Mullich with 3 Chudniks, 47 Orcs, 4 Evil Eyes, a few Goblins and Wolves—zero stats. So I took the meat and, with a slightly leveled scout hero with Expert Tactics, chased off Gundula (bought him off for 4500), and went with Vistana to kill Mullich. I had about 30 Lizardmen, 3 Wyverns, a Serpent Fly, about 20 Troglodytes, and a few Harpies. I cast Oil on the Chudniks, shielded the Lizardmen, and we exchanged shots with the Orcs. My stats were 2 10 4 10 (13 mana). I was left with 17 group Lizardmen and 10 Troglodytes... I bought a hero, brought Serpent Fly and Vistana, pulled the meat a bit higher, ended my turn. My opponent took out Vistana (I bought him off), killed my scout heroes, but again didn't reach the Castle. On Day 131, I bought back in the Dungeon, installed a Whirlpool, got 200 mana instantly, and made a run for the main hero. Along the way, I picked up Lizardmen from the external dwelling, ended my turn. My opponent sat in the Castle with Gundula on birds. On Day 132, I gathered all the meat I could buy and took out Gundula. My stats were 2 10 4 10 (200 mana), his were 9 5 5 4 (80 mana). My meat: about 27 Lizardmen, 3 Wyverns, 57 Gnolls, 7 Basiliks, 3 group Serpent Flies and 2 single Serpent Flies. His: 2 stacks of 5 group birds each and 1 Wolf.
Thanks for the game!
