Before the Fortress Battle, we fought on week 2 and week 3, the first two times with magic. Tazar dominated in mana and +3 speed was decisive. In the Fortress Battle, critical strike and shackles were a problem for Tazar; his stats were 21/24, and his morale was low, so he didn't stand a chance.
Thanks for the game!
On day 126, I got a great maxed-out Utopia (without it, I could have immediately conceded), but it turned out to be the only one in my entire realm, the entire huge adjacent realm, and my half of the center. I could have taken the Castle and hoped that there were no more Castles on the map, but my opponent had too overwhelming an advantage in the growth of his native stronghold. Plus, I couldn't raise my stats anywhere, not even theoretically, and I didn't gain any control anywhere. But there was a chance - after the second Fortress Battle on day 133, I should have just gone straight for my opponent's capital with my own forces. But I decided to hold onto the now useless center (there were 2 dungeons there), and I also got distracted by a +2 HP flask, which I needed for an elixir. But I didn't reach it by 2 steps and left it for my opponent. In such games, your skills really improve; Bishop fought brilliantly, and it was very interesting to watch his actions. Thanks for the game!
p.s. I barely slept all night; I kept replaying in my head the different ways I could have won, but I'm ready for a rematch today!:smile24:
