In week 1, I cleared my compact starting area, took Pandora with 30 Ogres, and added some more Ogres to the mix. I built up Ogres and Bears in my Fortress. On turn 121, I defended against a rush with Ifrits and 2 all-powerful units. I have an Earth expert – I can see that the way to the center is through the opponent's outpost. On turn 122, I take a level 3 Consulate with a sneaky move and break through my own Gate of the Month (20+ Devils with Great Scroll) and the opponent's Gate of the Month – a horde of Manticores. On my turn, Arlash attacks and then retreats after an exchange. On turn 123, I reach the city and settle in to replenish mana. After that, there was another battle and a retreat. I built Monarchs in the village, finally found all the Air creatures in Pandora, and on turn 141, the opponent made a mistake, and I was able to break through and win. Thanks for the game!
