OFB-9

For a long time I dreamed of playing Jebus Cross as Castle, where for the first week you just run around with everyone and collect resources, and on day 121 you come out with Archangels and sweep everything in the center) Especially since I saw that it's possible, and how some people make 20+ Archangels by that time))) My opponent also chose Castle... well okaaaaaay....

I restarted everything, and got Müllich :) Didn't get second level. Scouting showed that the road to the secondary hero and GO is cut off by 20-49 Gold Golems for a scroll and a Dragon Fly Hive, and I can only farm until the end of the week on the meadow from the Castle to the second secondary hero. The visible bugged passage to the swamp zone looked suspicious, and whether I even had a GO was unclear:confused: Ideally, this should be sent to the judges or a trusted person, but I didn't want to bother:o The respawn is basically small, and the meadow even more so) I had to give up the dream of Archangels, since my CON is 0 and there's no Angel dwelling. What to do? Where to go? What to build? How and when to come out and through what?

There are 4 Dragon Fly Hives and behind those Gold Golems, right on the road, two Cavalier dwellings. I went for buildings for Cavaliers in the Fort + I built and upgraded Archers (22) to have something to fight with. Secondary hero is Dungeon. On day 116 I checked/breached the Golems and took the Cavalier dwellings. Found the secondary hero and right next to it, the GO — Castle Cavaliers. Not bad, but Müllich of course took Water Magic (a trait of my heroes in OFB) and Magic Resistance. I split into the wrong Castle, but not critical))

I came out on day 122 with a stack of Grand Cavaliers and a stack of 30+ Wyvern. Lost two Wyvern at the GO — good. My magic is worrying, and no Slow. The road was blocked by 100+ Grand Scorpions:smile07: :smile07: :smile07: I headed into the sand. Looking for approaches to the opponent's Rampart Castle, but only finding mountains, blocks of Angels, Archangels and Grand Pegasi:smile16: I attacked the 100+ Pegasi for a Dragon Fly Hive and a box — in the first round they killed a Wyvern and a Cavalier, but it turned out to be a big Dragon Fly Hive. The box was probably for experience. With nothing better to do, I recaptured the Gold Mine in the opponent's territory and freed a couple of heroes)) Found a small Dragon Utopia, which gave Wings and a Necklace +3 All Stats)) Müllich waved goodbye to the carriers of level 1 units and flew to the opponent's Castle) I build the third level 1 Mage Guild hoping to learn Slow — no, but at least I'll replenish my mana. The opponent still hasn't come, and it's already the end of the second week. The next day, with the meat from the opponent's Castle, I fly to another Dragon Utopia, where I leave all my meat against Liches. Attacking with just Cavaliers and Wyvern is kind of terrifying... I returned to the opponent's Castle)))))))) I think it will be day 131 and I'll go in with new meat + somehow transport it using Wings and transport from the Castle. I had Boots and Logs. But then I see the blue player. I hire a hero with Faerie Dragons — according to the rules this isn't a redraw for some reason — and attack. There are no Archangels, only 2 Angels, and a good stack of Arbalists. My Magic Resistance triggered, the opponent bought the hero back. I immediately took the Cap of the Fifth. We ran around a bit more, and then came the surrender. I did eventually learn Slow in the opponent's main town)

Thanks for the game!
