"Newcomer-2014. Summer"

The game was very heavy and tense. I thought I would lose this match, I was literally on the verge of defeat :D. I don't remember how many resets everyone had, but we started playing the setup (I think I had 1 left, but I didn't use it and started playing the setup). I started playing - saw the Dragon Fly Hive and an external dwelling of Lizards (but didn't take it on week 1). 1 passage to the adjacent zone with the opponent (guard tough for week 1), 2nd passage to a secondary town (but the ГО blocks the path to the underground, and the detour is very long through rough terrain). And then it got hot when the opponent comes through the adjacent zone at the start of the second week with 160+ Infernal Troglodytes and 50+ Beholders - I was shocked for a couple of turns :eek:. I defended in the Castle and meanwhile captured a Dwarf Cottage and built a Castle, for better defense (on 1 Wyvern plus Waspwaks in the Citadel). The opponent doesn't dare attack the Castle with Tazar (I probably would have chickened out too :D). Then very well-thought-out moves begin, I take a Dragon Fly Hive in the middle or end of week 2, then I run in 3 moves to 2 Dragon Fly Hives, but both are minimal ones (while the opponent ran off somewhere on his own business). And I quickly break through to the underground treasure zone through a portal (and then the countdown of days without a Castle began - the opponent captured my Castle - but I managed to buy the army and lead it away through the swamp to the side - on a hero). In the treasure zone without mana, it was very painful to get hit and slowly lose army. In the treasure zone, 4 Dragon Fly Hives and a Pandora's Box for full Fire Magic + a Library - I clear this treasure zone :D. I run out of the portal and run to another treasure zone with a Dragon Utopia revealed on the rocks (max Dragon Utopia - using Summon Fire Elementals 30 units - I take the Dragon Utopia - drops КВ, armor +10 SP and Sandals). I run to replenish mana in the Rampart secondary town and with the help of Advanced Air Magic - I control the map and run to a very rich Rampart treasure zone, there is 1 minimal Dragon Utopia - Crown level 5, Bracers, Medallion of Vulnerability - pretty good overall. Then I'm left without mana in this treasure zone (only enough mana for Fly - to exit through it, and Town Portal, to get out of there somehow) and the opponent shows up and takes, with his Pits, a 100-249 Chest on which I had my eye, but the opponent's stats didn't increase much, they became around 15+ - tolerable). I Town Portal, as planned, and replenish mana at the Rampart (and build it up to Dragons, since there are many external dwellings of Dragons in the Rampart treasure zone + an external dwelling near the secondary). Then I run again into this same treasure zone for the Pandora's Boxes and the rest - since the treasure zone is huge, I pick up another couple of Dragon Fly Hives + Sword +5 All + Shield +3 +3 (which I didn't have until now). I see the opponent running along the road towards my Rampart secondary town, ready to fight with 40+ Lizards, 188 Beholders and fake 1-stacks :D and stats around 15. Meanwhile, I have everything under control - a chain is built from the treasure zone to the Rampart, but then I open a Pandora's Box and it gives me all Earth Magic - Town Portal :smile20: :smile03:. I Town Portal to the Rampart, from there Fly to the well near the Castle, get mana up to 260 and jump on Shakti with this army: 35 Grand Elves, 45 Dendroid Soldiers, 25+ Pegasi with 1-stacks, 4 Dragons and 40 regular Elves (from the Pandora's Box). Stats 21 25 36 20 - I have Offense Magic and equip the Bracers :smile12:, but the opponent has Surcoat of Counterstrike, but that doesn't save him! Thanks for the game!! :D :D
