Дегустация Horn of the Abyss

We started with one restart from the opponent. Ultimately, I only got 12 pirates from the start, nothing special in the starting zone, so I wanted to take a restart. To do this, I entered an external dwelling of Wyverns on 111 with 12 pirates, 7 sailors, and single fairies. I cleared the wyverns without losses. Had to continue playing. On 112, I approached the swamp computer. They barricaded themselves in the castle and bought up wyverns. Again, I wanted to restart for this reason, but two heroes, including the starting Anabel, got Logistics. I passed the turn, the computer killed off two of my heroes but remained with its army in the castle.
On 113, I thought I would definitely restart. In the castle, there were 29 basilisks, 2 wyverns, and a dozen gnolls under Vistan. But no, I took it with the loss of two pirates. Had to play. The setup, I must say, was great.
In the first week, after the swamp computer, I also killed a Castle (player), couldn't reach the barbarian (player); minotaurs blocked the Zephyr (guards). I built Nix in the Citadel. Anabel picked up a lot of good skills, but upgrading them won't happen soon. There are 3 Zephyrs and a couple of Hives.
On 121, I played sloppily, losing 7 pirates at the Medusa dwelling. Then I lost a few more troops, so on 122, the Golem Factory with 3 giants was tough. From it, I got a Zephyr and crushed the barbarian computer. Then I split the army into two parts. Anabel with pirates, giants, and nymphs went to the treasure zone. Cyclopes and upgraded Wyverns went to clear objects on the respawn. Result – 20 cyclopes, 15 monarchs – with this army, Miriam went to another treasure zone. Anabel found a couple of Fire Birds, 10 cyclopes, quite a lot of experience, an external dwelling of Serpent Flies, a chapel with Resurrection. When Miriam hit hard blocks, the army was brought to her, she ran to a village, Anabel bought there and took a Dragon Utopia. The first Dragon Utopia gave only a red orb, taken without losses thanks to the found 30 Wyverns and Resurrection. Overall, the treasure zone turned out to be very good, there were about 15 Dragon Fly Hives, most of them near the road. At the start of the third week, I take another couple of Dragon Utopias here. They give everything needed – the cap of 5th level magic, the +6 all stats helmet, gloves. Then I go to the central treasure zone, where I grab the Book of Earth. I collect Dragon Fly Hives and Zephyrs, and on 136 I reach the opponent's respawn with a hundred monarchs, 50 Cyclops Kings, pirates, Serpent Flies, and minor troops. I take the capital, on 137 – the Tower, where Titans are built. And then – the opponent also has full control and Kyrre. A chase begins, in which my situation was poor. I was late sending a hero to my last treasure zone, it was quite rich there, but I only managed to grab a little.
In the end, in the middle of the 4th week, I finally managed to push enough castles to reach Kyrre. I killed 12 Titans with an explosion, they exploded my Wyverns, wounded the Cyclopes, and bought (army). I lose again, restore control over towns, but very stupidly give away my Castle; the timer wasn't enough to bring troops there… And there's an unclaimed Dragon Utopia, which is very important because Maretti also didn't have much gold. However, it wasn't that important, because in the end I could have caught Kyrre again and killed her very important helper, but I made a stupid mistake, failed to reach (them), and also wasted my Dimension Door. And without Dimension Door, the chances became zero, so I had to surrender.
The timer pressured me more than the opponent :smile34:
Thank you for the game.
Thanks for playing.
