On the black side, I managed to get a rather nice pair again. After the 1st restart on the sm-ka, she appeared a 2nd time (6 zeros from the start wasn't bad for the coin :smile06: ). I planned to play contact templates right away and rush if possible.
On the first day I saw Igra in the tavern, 2 external dwellings of air elementals, an external dwelling of fire elementals and psychics. A stable right on the road and plenty of money objects. I decided not to restart such a spawn and played this hand.
Igra picks up Attack and Earth Magic immediately. Crypts with 5 vampires each are nice, 30 air elementals clear everything easily.
On the 3rd day I scouted a GO, but 10-19 titans are unpleasant. I took the dwarf dwelling (20) and am preparing to take the pandora's box for the wasps.
The wasps broke through the Greenies, used all the mana, but micro'd well, there were 43 of them. Igra has only basic Wisdom, so I avoided it for now.
Meanwhile, I scouted 2 external dwellings of fish, another dwarf dwelling, a crypt, and an imp dwelling.
The only downside is only 1 secondary hero going underground.
On 115 I took another dwarf dwelling. Skeletons are already 165, and the air elementals are a bit depleted, 27 left.
116 the lich took an external dwelling of psychics, supplies were brought to Igra and she takes the max imp dwelling :smile13: , and after that another dwarf dwelling, though I lost track of the timer (6 minutes for an sm-ka on a chessboard is very harsh)
and lost a lot of movement with the liches. Money 17k :D
117 2 external dwellings of fish, I'm preparing to buy up and take the medusa dwelling and the nag dwelling with liches. I didn't build birds, otherwise a financial crisis would have caught me. Igra finally took the pandora's box, got 20 gr of poops.

121 No external market and the money flew away quickly, someone else took the medusa dwelling, passed it to Grinya who leveled up Earth Magic on zombies, after which he completely destroyed the nag dwelling (4). Igra went home to regenerate mana and learn Slow in a shrine. After Igra got 3 normal skills, she lost the desire to level up anything decent further, resulting in Navigation, Catapult, and Intelligence. And only in the last slot, somewhere
around week 2, she got Logistics.
Grínya immediately saw a Well on the secondary hero, and I start regretting that I recalled Igra :( could have made about 100 skeletons.
On 123 I captured a cape +2 Speed, a dungeon, recalled Igra there and took the Cons 2.
Just tons of meat: 37 gr of fish, 316 skeletons, 30 gr of poops, 9 psychics, 1+ 47 air elementals, and 2 angels.
125 Brogh with a scout and a trumpet checks the treasure spot, it's on the sand and surrounded by mountains, but spotted a 2nd one underground. I took another imp dwelling, bought Gunnar and gave him 1000 exp in the dungeon and a nearby pillar, leveled him up to Expert Tactics immediately.
126 I broke into the treasure spot, 90 medusas hit hard — lost 80 skeletons, but raised 30 and rescued Gosh from the prison, level 5 with 3 stacks :)
Gosh in turn killed 50+ pit fiends, for Xarfax level 20, with Expert Earth Magic, Air Magic, Intelligence, and a bunch of useless stuff.
127 The army was passed back and Gunnar takes 10k exp from the dungeon respawn using liches, gets Attack and Earth Magic and immediately sets his sights on the papa spawn.
Igra runs to reclaim +2 HP and a Dragon Utopia is scouted, which is at the start of week 3.
131 Besides the bottle, I also captured a pandora's box, for the entire 4th level of magic :)
by the way, on week 2, due to the timer, I catastrophically missed the moment for the guild and started building in the dungeon only on week 3.
132 Gunnar, with some supply, takes the mini Dragon Utopia, gets a cauldron and boots of speed :smile13: Igra stands near the GO with doubled mana.
133 All the time was spent breaking through 18!!! titans and I remained near the GO.
134 Captured the main Stinger and started scouting his roads.
135 I discover Gurney at a Dragon Utopia, on his secondary hero. I attack, he has no mana, so I cast Oil, and the fish with Luck mark hits. In response, marks and a ballista kill my angel (the 2nd one I wisely left at home with Gunnar) and a buyback follows.
On 136 I passed through the FB
Igra 12 13 11(154) 48 gr of fish 337 skeletons 15 psychics 1 gr poop 1 fire elemental 27 air elementals.
Gurney 25 15 5(60) 45 marks 150 skeletons 16 dragons 2 angels 4 gr efreet 1+1+1 nomads
We exchanged Oil and Meteor Showers, he gave away skeletons, and after the Oil wore off, he also killed my dragons.
He killed almost all my psychics and the angel, and a buyback follows.

On 137 I scout another secondary hero, a lich with all the remaining meat, while Gurney sits in the castle. I can't reach the castle, but I can reach the lich.
Xarfax learned Town Portal last turn in the dungeon, I build it and bring a bird, and Igra on the bird and fire elementals with an Armageddon finishes off the remaining army, and all the artifacts drop. After that, the surrender occurs.
Thanks for the game!
