On 121, my cat headed toward a Dragon Utopia. It turned out to be a max one (I wouldn't have handled it). I had to break and head to another one. That one turned out to be a min one with +4 all. I lost a lot of time and only got the archangels on 124. By 125, I took the red orb, gladius, and cap. I broke back home for a max Dragon Utopia; the 3rd one also turned out to be max. But besides some small stats, I didn't roll any of the 8 relics. The opponent was operating in their part of the center.
By the 3rd day, it became obvious that we were cramped and, after checking for shackles and putting on the red orb, I attacked Gosha. I had 11 archangels and everything else decent; Gosha had 8 angels, 3 CDs, and 43 ducks among the notable units. Stats are roughly equal, but Müllich has neither offense nor armor, while Gosha has the full set. I traded 8 angels for some trash and paid my way out. Gosha ran off into the snow or back to his respawn. I captured the 2nd central town and took a couple of hives and boxes (2 with 15 cats gr. and negr.).
The further grinding worked in my favor. гг. Thanks for the game!
