Went to new t-area and started making skells since i had 25% arts. This t-area was bigger but not very good and I still hadnt seen a tope. I lacked control badly but went to new area where I saw a tope. Tope was nice and gave HH but still no control. I built 4 guilds but they gave nothing. Now opponent came and started taking my towns, but I saw a new tope and finally i got air book. It was last minute cause next day opponent rushed me with a huge army, but I could DD away into safty.
I could get the Health combo and unite my armies. Had 9 hydras, 20 angels, close to 100 wyverns, 1 k skells and more. Took my town back and upgraded wyverns. Went towards a Castle town but opponent sat in town so I kept outside. My stats were clearly better but hard to kill 3+k skells with a destroyed catapult.
I went into unexplored area while opponent took some towns back. I had the mana combo but forgot to put it on so I ended 1 day with 14 mana. This was a mistake that could have cost dearly, but it turned out to be an advantage. Opponent saw this and left the Castle town thinking I couldnt reach it, but I had the mana combo on and could take it. Could upgrade my 20 angels which led to opponent giving up. TFP.
