The Final Battle 8

Thank you for the game!

Shit happens :mad:
The game turned out to be very tough, right from the start. Despite 3 stacks of troglodytes and Sandro in the tavern, everything went badly. All the little critters were somehow against me, morale and luck were hammering poor Sandro pretty hard. I was too lazy to build the Necro upgrade for a whole week. I barely managed to stick the bears in the castle and put the troglodytes into the transformer by the end of the week. After that, things got even worse. The treasure zone was small on the sand, but due to Pandora's boxes I got stuck—I thought it was magic, had to lose a couple of days to avoid picking it up with advanced wisdom. Turned out to be 10 experience and 25 gr demons.
On day 127, an external dwelling of bears and a third Necro town (no raise dead there, of course).
At the start of week 3, I rush into a new treasure zone—there's a Pandora's box with 50 gr liches + hives. Without tactics and mass haste, they ran over me pretty hard, but level 5 magic was a relief. Right after, a Dragon Utopia is visible. Mini and there's a level 5 hat :D . Then a crab move ruined the game. I changed my plan and Dimension Doored in the wrong direction, ended up taking a village cheaply from the prison, and Sandro went to his rest—he suddenly decided to crash his gargoyle into the liches, and there was luck :D . Could have written GG, but there was a level 2 Crag Hack with logistics. The opponent (OP) has scary stats but won't come visiting.
After the save, I took my 2 Dragon Utopias—Crag Hack went into the first one 5-0 :)
I gave away part of the skeletons and the demons, got plate armor...
Went into the second one with the mage counting on an imp, but didn't put the plate armor on :)
Result: minus a bear and a bunch of skeletons :(
Then, with full control, I went to clear the third treasure zone with Crag Hack.
In the treasure zone, all the Dragon Utopias are small—only a teapot and a +12 shield for stats. Almost all hives are mini. Took about 15 minimal ones during the game!!! :smile49:
Came to visit the opponent, upgraded the dragons but forgot the only angel (facepalm here)—against 500 mana and a catapult, there weren't many options. Crag Hack was just perfect, so I decided not to risk it and bought the last unnecessary fire column, then checked—turns out I was given artillery with which I think I could have won the finale. The catapult that the opponent had control over decided things, since the gray units were essentially trapped. And a very unfortunate misclick happened, after such a long match.
Thank you for the game and good luck in the remaining matches—you (the opponent) are obliged to win them!
