Group D.
SAM vs Бродяги из ниоткуда. Round 1.

We rolled, and started. I surrendered Tower against Citadel-Gurni, but got lucky with the heroes: Mülli, Kyrre, Tazar, Pira. I chose Mülli as my main. On the first week I took a secondary hero, and cleared the respawn to build up properly. I found a mini Griffin Conservatory and an artifact of +1 speed. I placed a Naga in the fort. At the beginning of the second week, I took the Griffin Conservatory, Medusa Hive, managed to buy up somewhat, and broke through the Necro Cones into the next zone. I captured a Castle village there, and broke through the Wizard territory onto the snow, where I found a swamp village and spotted the red player. Gurni revealed himself, but instead of attacking Mülli, he ran into unexplored areas. For the rest of the week, there were active scout fights and exchanges of castles. By the end of the week, I managed to capture the opponent's main and not lose it back; after an epic battle, only 2 zombies remained. At the beginning of the third week, I took 2 Dwarf Cottages with scouts, bought up, recaptured all the opponent's castles I could see, and cleared my own treasure zone a bit with Mülli: I took 2 Dragon Fly Hives (12+6) and a couple of stat artifacts. On day 134, Gurni returned to his secondary and claimed the town. I was defeated by Mülli from the treasure zone into the nearest village, brought in the army, and attacked. The opponent cast Oil, I countered it with Mass Haste, and the surrender followed.
Thanks for the game.
