We took all the restarts. No Air elementals were present, but there was a nearby hideout of theirs, a hideout of the Berserkers, Faerie Dragons, and Manticores a bit further away, and large Crypts. Mullich was dug up. On the first day, I scouted the bird hideout and three Griffin Conservatories (later saw a fourth nearby). The Mage Guild gave me what I have in the picture under each post :smile20:

The nearest Griffin Conservatory had 2 Grand Elves, two others were behind strong guards: 50+ Green Wyrms, Necroconi with a Balloon. I checked the last one — 2-4. So I couldn't take it quickly yet. During the week, I did scouting, took three Dragon Fly Hives: 6+6+8, and then two Griffin Conservatories and the bird hideout on day 117. There was risk with the first Dragon Fly Hive, as I couldn't take the big one, but I went there with my main hero for tempo :D I lost two Wyverns while taking the Griffin Conservatories. I gathered Angels: 2+3+2+4 = 11. All good, except the Greedy Offering gave Efreet Sultans with no other options, unfortunately. No Cape, no Antimagic. I visited a Witch Hut, got +5 Spell Power, and next to it, using the Box of 5000, I learned Earth Magic) I was worried that in the middle of the week, HellLight had a lot of gold (I thought *I* had a lot because of the Crypts!), and he was ending turns quickly, but towards the end of the week, he became, how should I put it, average-paced :)

I exited on day 122 using all moves on autobattle, as I was in time trouble according to the timer, losing 4 Angels, 13 Wyverns, and all the 'meat' from the town except Faerie Dragons. There I immediately got the Level 5 Helm, which I had seen earlier and wanted for a long time) I grabbed the missing artifact for the Well. I am Blue — excellent. Central Rampart.

On day 123, I took the Crystal Sphere and Boots of Speed, losing the last Wyverns there, although I could have avoided the loss, but the timer was pressing and I made a stupid mistake. The army was still good — 9 Birds, 5 Angels, and 1-stacks of Faerie Dragons + a hero was loitering nearby with additional Faerie Dragons. We freed a hero from prison, used him to take a Rampart town with Fly, then a new hero returned the army and artifacts. A Dimensional Door seal was revealed under a Castle, but due to the timer, I couldn't collect it with extra scouts. In the last seconds, I rushed with the scout who took the central Rampart forward, but for some reason he didn't fly over the Pegasi, or I clicked Attack on them :confused:, he died, but scouted Shakti with Efreet Sultans :eek: I didn't expect to see him on that side at all, as the terrain was revealed from my spawn on the left) But, as it turned out, the generator gave two more Dungeon zones besides HellLight's. Sometimes it gives an extra Tower for Diabler and Bishop, but now it decided to give *me* a fun late game :D I didn't have time to scout him fully, was worried about the Faerie Dragon carrier)

On day 124, I watched HellLight break through 20+ Hydras for a Box, a Scroll, and a Prison, captured the C Castle, saw my heroes, left Shakti on two Harpies, and took everything else away; I realized it wasn't his main hero. He also ran out of time) On *my* day 124, I took the Shackles of War, recaptured the C Castle, killed Shakti with the Birds, and collected the Dimensional Door seal. Corbac was revealed there. On day 125, we attacked him near the second C Castle. HellLight did a lot of work during the game, even defeating the Devils of the neighboring Greedy Offering to access the C, but I had everything ready for the Final Battle.
During the game, I made two mistakes, not counting the timer waste, but they didn't affect the outcome in the end: after loading, I forgot to split my main hero immediately after taking the first Dragon Fly Hive, but instead went to a treasure chest for experience, resulting in a lack of movement points; the second mistake was not hedging against moral quirks and losing 5 Wyverns in the C.

Thanks for the game!
