Favorites, to battle! - 7 - The Battle of Favorites! - 7

The double gave out, I took my computer to 115. There was a gold hero, a couple with the gold skill, but money was still scarce, so the horses in the comp's Citadel and 1-4 dwellings. By 121, with growth, I used a scout hero to break through to the corner treasure zone; there a stack of fanatics at a Dragon Utopia blocked the path to the village. Valya got wiped and returned home, ran along the second road (I revealed the direction on the first from scouting but didn't touch it): along that road, right at the respawn was a +5 club behind a horde of upgraded water elementals. An adjacent zone on barbarian land, with a Griffin Conservatory-spearmen, a Dwarf Cottage, Medusa dens; I gathered gold for Angels in the Citadel by 127 and took a Dragon Fly Hive with 8 Wyverns. On 131, Valya attacks the starting area and from the stables on an Angel runs to the second Griffin Conservatory on the adjacent zone between me and the comp; the scout heroes are clearing the barbarian territory in the meantime and breaking a teleport to the center from one side. I take the third Griffin Conservatory with 3 Angels, 5 horses, a bunch of archers, and something else: Valya has expert Leadership, Archery, Offense, Defense. Nearby there's also a +6 shield and a Dragon Fly Hive. It's annoying crawling around sand without Pathfinding, but then a boost: a scout hero on rocks in a cart finds boots. Guarding the shield and the elevator to the treasure zone, Valya gets Pathfinding; stats with the shield and sword are already 13-13; there's another Dragon Fly Hive not far from the Dragon Utopia, so I head there. In the end, either on 134 or 135, I take a max Dragon Utopia, which has a Hat of the Fifth, +3 to all, Chupa, and +10 to SP; Valya was given Log and Air. I have 5 Angels and 18 Wyverns left; the red ones in the tavern aren't scaring me yet. From there, with Dimension Door, it's a matter of technique; I started squeezing castles, took a couple more Dragon Utopias (in the third I got a КЗ and +5 to all), and the final was a one-way gate.

Thanks for the game.
