I have 111 left, roads are average, the scout gives a general idea that the respawn is far away, one Medusa dwelling from the banks, no external dwellings, mines are open, a few stacks of 3 creatures each, 2 roads, one leads to the GO, the other to a grassy adjacent zone behind the zombies. Monere enters as the final hero and decides to play.

On day 114, I captured the opponent's adjacent zone, scouted an external dwelling with Rogues and a Griffin Conservatory, all guarded by 84 Elves and a Mace +5 protected by Monks, and another external dwelling with Rogues behind Marksmen, far away. Monere got Earth Magic and I took Tactics, because Charna and Isra were visible there.

On day 117, I barely had enough money for the Cavalry in the Citadel, plus Elves in the Fort. I scouted one treasure zone far away, on snow terrain.

There was nothing to do; I didn't want to go through pathless terrain towards a possible contact. I claimed two external dwellings, and the Griffin Conservatory turned out to be tier 1. I didn't have enough money to build Unicorns; the 4 Crypts turned out to be small, and there were no other money-generating objects.

On day 127, I gathered 40 mana and moved towards the treasure zone in the snow. Monere got Pathfinding; unfortunately, I had to give up Wisdom and Armorer to level up Earth Magic further.

The treasure zone was empty, a Dragon Fly Hive, a quest requiring 30 Ducks, and a familiar Hut. I quickly ran straight through the zone, exiting onto grass — our shared adjacent zone with the opponent. I used View Earth; a mine was flagged. I thought about going into battle; on the way, I found a Monolith leading to the treasure zone (later I would find a Dragon Utopia near it). I dove in, took the Dragon Fly Hive, two Prisons, a quest artifact (the Hut is there; by the way, it gave 3 Titans), KZ, and I see a Dragon Utopia. Just as a new week starts, I set up a chain of 7 heroes to ferry supplies; I have mana for Shield, Stone Skin, and Town Portal. The Dragon Utopia (3) gave Wings, Shield +4 (OL), Shield +10. I Town Portaled home for mana and, using the Wings, reached that Dragon Utopia the next day. It was maximum KV, KVO, Sword +12, KSh.

We ran around a bit, captured towns from each other; in the end, I cornered Charna in a single town. I had an attack advantage of 10. They had 32 Monks, 9 Thunderbirds, about 300 Skeletons, +2 HP, -2 Morale. I had 4 Angels, 3 Titans, 13 Monks, 19 Battle Rogues, 12 Cavalrymen, 55 Marksmen, and 35 Grand Elves. I didn't attack the castle. The next day, Charna surrendered.

Thanks for the game!
