"only XL-2"

I entered with 31 archers, Shiva, and a cons, decided to play. Very little money, the road to the teleport turned out to be long, but there's a very good junction leading to the center and my teammate (though it's blocked by a chord of gr. pegasi).
In the end, on turn 1 I went toward the purple bot, who turned out to be Inferno; I land on 117 in Castle, everything there is set up for ifrits, so I plug them in instead of horses.
Army is very small, home cons turned out to be 3+, masslow isn't leveled up, so I decide to start with the hives, take two - 6+6 and plan to break back home. Meanwhile, Tiris pops out of the teleport with decent stats and an army of 5-9 angels, 1-4 fire birds, 5-9 psychos, and a zoo with good combat stats. Great :(
I break into Castle with underleveled earth and prepare to lose in a max cons, but the last battle finally gives the coveted skill and the three lands are set without any issues.
Meanwhile Tiris, without a book (as the autopsy showed), got scared and broke back home :p
My Shiva flies toward two scouted cons and a Dragon Utopia with 3400 mp, picking up money banks along the way. But the cons turned out to be ones and there's nothing to do in a Dragon Utopia with such a set.
Plan changes - on Inferno there is another cons and a Dragon Utopia near the far corner village; eventually I break Shiva into Inferno, but I make a mistake by overestimating the army and rushing into a cons without checking it first as a zero-luck pawn. Naturally, it's a max one, the bot on quick loses without killing even half :D
With a heavy heart, I start fighting back and barely pull through, losing everything except 7 ruhs and 4 angels.
The mother gets some power delivered and dives into a two-star Dragon Utopia. They give her royal treatment: +2 all and КЗ :smile03:
But the opponent still has much more power; the plan is to demonize everything possible and field a hundred demons and archs on week 4.
Shiva runs to another corner village with 8 angels while the rest of the crew powers up demons in another corner of the map. In the corner, I found a one-star Dragon Utopia with a crown +4+4, which isn't too bad overall.
I TP home and with those same 8 angels run toward 2 more spotted Dragon Utopias (in the very back of a huge respawn).
In the first Dragon Utopia, jackpot on stats: +6 and +3 all and a sword +12 (there was no sword or pendant before this at all). In the end, the stats are already cosmic compared to the opponent's weak main.
The second Dragon Utopia gives an even more valuable air book + 2 two-star cons and an external dwelling of angels nearby.
In the end, on 145 we have Shiva 39 28 with 14 archs, 97 demons, 14 ruhs, 3 bears, and one-star sultans with full control and maximum movement allowance. :smile10:
I go visit the opponent; there's no one to meet me, the whole crew is wandering around the orange and purple respawn, no chains or control.
And on the next move, an unexpected finale happened:
My level 1 Eleshar with an arrow and 1+1+1+1+1+1+8 buddies against
level 1 Aeris with lightning and 4+4+4+3+3+3+3 fairies.
Completely unexpectedly, I managed to carry. Having lost a key hero and most of the army, the opponent surrenders! :smile03:
Thanks for the game!
