Tiraxor started with 3 stacks, has a stream, stables, a dwarf, and a sword +2 - let's play. In the first week, I took the external dwelling of orcs and ogres. I fought my way to two villages (one of which was bogged down by treasure zone guards). On day 16, while approaching the brown Necropolis, red Claudius appears with 100+ skeletons. I was afraid to attack; who knows how many skeletons there were, 100 or 150? My "losshki" (weak units) couldn't reach him. I turn around and go to Griffin Conservatory 1. Waiting for growth. Tiraxor has 10.6 Earth experience and caught Air.
In the 2nd week, the reds take over the brown Necropolis, add skeletons from 4 external dwellings, and now they have over 170 (this is after opening them). ((( I take Griffin Conservatory 1. And I prepare to take the 2nd conservatory, Throng. Then a force majeure happens (a child runs up to the laptop and pushes it, after which a misclick occurs and my folder enters Griffin Conservatory 3 without being deployed). The opponent gives an auto-win - thanks. :rolleyes: And then I run to the nearest treasure zone. On day 60+, on home territory, I lose 30+ wolves to a group of demons. ((( And then, as luck would have it, I build Mage Guild 4 and 1 in sequence to get Slow - no! Damn. 8K [gold] down the drain and into the treasure zone empty-handed. :eek: I take the Necropolis from the reds.
In the 3rd week, I met them in a treasure zone. The treasure zone was nothing special: 2 Efreet external dwellings, 3 chests (level 3 magic, an empty one, and 25 group demons) and that's it. At the respawn, I loot 2 cyclops for resources. And through the previously captured village, I go to the teleport. Meanwhile, my "losshok" runs to the reds, and in the camp they give 2 Phoenixes! And then things got more interesting. We rattled the reds' nerves a bit. The 3rd week somehow passed as nothing special. On the bright side, the computer's Castle was scouted.
The 4th week was livelier: I take the Castle, finish building Mage Guild 5 in Falx's village to get Dimension Door, and thanks to the "losshok" on Phoenixes, a Town Portal scroll was recovered. On day 144, I enter the only scouted Dragon Utopia and it's maxed. Tiraxor 12.8 without armor: 5 angels, 6 regular bears, 16 birds, 23 demons, 45 wolf cubs, and 30 goblins - I came out with 4 feathered ones and 6 bears. They gave a good +11 to everything and gold! And now there's a chance to get Archangels. Then I start jumping around taking artifacts, conservatories, and cyclops dwellings. In the Castle, I station angels + I have their external dwelling.
On day 211, the first battle. In a recently scouted treasure zone, I see the red "losshok" with an army and Charna nearby on a rush. :) I gather everything I have, use 2 Dimension Doors, and attack. But I didn't think that 1800 skeletons and 50 wyverns would be enough for gold to buy them off! :eek: I attack Charna; with 14 angels I cut down 8, and there too is a buyout, and he saves 50 + gold. But now I don't have enough resources for Archangels! :(
On day 217, Claudius captures the Castle. Damn, will the archangels be his now?! I gather what I have and attack. Tiraxor 22, 27, 16, 16: 15 angels, 8 grey bears, 6 birds, 1 group hydra :rolleyes:, 20 mage ogres, and 85 orcs, a cloak of magic (up to level 3), and lightning for 700 damage. Claudius 13, 30, 26, 17 mana 85: 7 angels, 90 wyverns, 1800+ skeletons, and 15 wizards. I lock the skeletons in the castle and a trade happens; the opponent is left with all the skeletons, while I buy myself off on 1 grey bear! :o (luckily there were no shackles).
Well, the opponent makes Archangels from growth and covers me in the village where I was hiding from prying eyes. :D
Thanks for the game.Thanks for the game!
