OFB-9

a rather tough start for me. absolutely all the pass guards spawned as shooters, and on top of that, the computer dungeon settled in a fort with a bunch of beholders. by day 113, after killing the computer, 16 magogs were left. mariuss gets intelligence, air from the hut, and earth. after doubling mana, things get really good and i already have mass haste. i pick up 8 demons from an external dwelling and from home, and off we go to the center, or so it seemed to me :) in reality, after losing another half of the remaining magogs and 1 demon, i hit a road block and realize that this is a corner, since i found a path into a treasure zone via same-zone movement in another area. money is very tight, only 1-5 in the citadel at>
121 trade from 2 markets. Re-split through the whirlpool, again a ton of mana. Bought what I could and off to shake the hives; spotted 3 of them. Gathered 18 wyverns, upgraded pits along the way, but there's nothing left to cut, and no money anyway. With this lot — 18 ducks, 40 magogs, and 14 demons with ones and mass course — I entered console 3 as Inteus, decided to save Marke some moves. Left 4 ducks and 3 demons there. Both centers are flux-based; I took them without a fight because Dark's road to the centers was blocked by treasure zone guards — 20+ monarchs. By the end of the week, topping up wyverns to 24 and a box of 30 fish, I went into the Dragon Utopia; luckily plenty of mana, earth and air are pumped, even offense prod is already there. Checking — it's maxed. I realize it's pain, but I really want it, so I take it on day 127. I come out with 18 wyverns; 3 angels and everything else died. But they gave me a cap for the whole 5th and a teapot.
131 The opponent is planning to hit monarchs with a miner. I buy everything I can, re-split for double mana with the teapot and exp intelligence, and cover the miner in 2 DDs. Without the teapot, stats are roughly equal and Marke only has 4th SP, though there is an earth orb, so impl is still decent — around 900. The army there is clearly better, and sensing something wrong by the amount of mana and DDs, Dark bursts in with mass haste. I use oil, then impl. In the same manner, I cut everything except 23 demons; the opponent pays to retreat.
Immediately dive into Dark's treasure zone, shake hives, rebuild army from scratch. In the orange computer's confluence at gm4 they gave TP. Well, basically I spent another week and a half running around building an army and eating Dragon Utopias. Judging by the views, the opponent sat in his own corner. As soon as he made a move — covered him via 2 DDs. GG, thanks for the game! A frustrating block, of course.there was a path to the computer and into the treasure zone; there was a block to the center on the first week consisting of 48 fanatics; in the territories mentioned above I found 20 wyv and 1 angel; when I went to the center, the opp had entered 2-3 turns earlier and took the Dragon Utopia there, which as I understand gave +6 all +12 knowledge cap and he found boosters (thanks to which he won fb with his 4 sp).

P.S. also had full control, but little mana; all treasure zones I tried to eat were just pathetic!!!
thanks for the game
