One for all and all for one - 3

Group D, game 2.

Again m200.
After the last chocolate, the main town decided enough was enough. One of the secondary towns sank, the other was 3+ turns away across wasteland. At the respawn, the best thing was a Dwarf Cottage with 20-30, no crypt. I fought off what resources I could, broke through to the secondary town, took a Conflux village. Bought Andra there, whom I decided to make my main due to her INT. Found a sword+3 behind gremlins and a passage further behind ogres. By the end of the week, I placed Andra before the ogres, built a chain: Tower-Dwarf Cottage-Andra. Home castle levels 1-4 in the fort.
On 121, I bought as much as I could, took the max Dwarf Cottage, bought fairies and sprites from the Conflux, reclaimed the sword+3, brought everything to the main. Broke through the ogres and a few more blocks. On 122, I opened a Pandora's Box behind ogres, 5k experience, leveled up Air. Have mass Haste. Found a magic well, entered it, 180 mana. Saw a portal behind arch magi, and on the other side a Conflux castle and a Pandora's Box behind water elementals. On 123, I ran to take the castle. Then Sephi comes out of the portal, kills the arch magi and kills a couple of my scouts, but runs toward my Conflux village. I attack with a scout, the army there is 40 gremlins, 120 Troglodytes, and harpies. Power 7, mana 50. I kill 8 eyes with the scout, Sephi spends mana on regular Haste. My main can't reach, so I take the Conflux, buy more sprites there, kill the fish, clear the entire second level. The next turn, after scouting with scouts, Sephi returns and attacks:

Andra 4-4-5-(170), 8 mages, 17 gargoyles, 110 gremlins, 20 sprites, 20-1-1 fairies. Expert Air, mass Haste, and Lightning Bolt at 175.
Sephi 0-0-7-(45), 130 Troglodytes, 32 evil eyes, 9-1-1-1-1 harpies. No mass spells, Lightning Bolt at 185.

A long tough battle, saved by the mana advantage, I cast Lightning Bolts and ran from the Troglodytes. The opponent had 30 Troglodytes left, I had 1 mage, 2 sprites, and 6 fairies, and he sued for peace. I run to finish him off, kill blue scouts with my own scouts, build a chain to transport golems. But the next turn Sephi attacks with tier 3 and tier 2 gargoyles. I kill the tier 3 with ranged fire and sue for peace. I ransom in the Conflux, bring up the golems, attack Sephi and manage to kill her with Death Wave.

Thanks for the game.
