One had to really try to lose a game like this, but I did it without a shred of shame =). In the tavern, Gosha, level 2 — diplo, on day 4 a Pandora's Box with 10k experience. Though I didn't advance diplo but chose Log instead, so I only managed to expert diplo at the start of the second week. Seriously, I gave up the initiative in the game at the start of the third week — instead of building a Mage Guild and staying overnight to replenish mana, then learning Earth at Conflux the next day (in the last slot), I built a tavern and sent scout heroes to collect artifacts with wings. As a result, I spent the rest of the game without mana =(, which greatly affected the outcome. My opponent didn't give me a single chance to restore the status quo, and in the final battle I forgot to remove the Shackles and the red orb from Gosha =)))))). The next day, a scout hero takes a Dragon Utopia, and I search for Gosha down to my last gold, but he got mad at me, the poor soul, and didn't come back =))))). GG,
thanks for the game.
