Oh, I played a GR yesterday with some guy on Two Minutes. I'll tell you, your carefully calibrated turns of 10-20 minutes each don't come anywhere close in terms of tension and intensity in the game. What I realized is that the rules aren't as important or necessary with a small time control. Because you just don't have enough time to implement all that. And thinking — there's just not enough time for it... ))
In short, the game generated a bunch of troglodyte dwellings for me, it was just insane, an uber stack. I came to him, took his Castle, killed 8 Angels there, he couldn't handle it, the noob) well, I was already sure I had won. Next to him, he had a Fort on a hill and he hadn't upgraded his Archangels. I was in shock. Well, without a logbook, I'm chasing him, at least from stables now. I went and revealed the Cartographer. In short, I'm absolutely sure it's over, GG is a formality. I'm going, going, and he dives into the underground, and there's a Dragon Utopia. Well, so what, of course it gave decent stat boosts. 32 Attack, damn. I attack him the next turn, he buys himself out. Oh my god. I run back to defend the Castle, but he gets there faster from another town with a noob army, splitting it up and setting his main hero there. OK. I have a bigger army, I attack, but I have half the mana. Resurrection and the fact that he could resurrect his own units from killed ones decided it. In short, as I understand it, he has the basic version of Armageddon's Blade and SoD on top of it, Griffin Conservatories, damn, giving 5 Angels per 20 in a stack, what nonsense. And in the battle, his unit died, then mine in the same spot. I thought he wouldn't be able to resurrect, but he could — because of that, I had to retreat... And from a won game, it became a losing one. Now I'm somewhere in the IB...s, trying to play myself out. But it seems nothing's looking good anymore. I have a ton of armies at home, but no money. For some reason, I can't get to the lucrative spots with piles of Dragon Utopias, either it's a generation bug, or the generator in Armageddon's Blade is different from the SoD one, or he rigged something in the RMG. Because the template was 8mm6, without computers, he created it, but it didn't look very similar, and treasure zones were blocked by mountains. We played by his rules without Dimension Door, Fly, and Diplomacy — everything else is ALLOWED.
So that's how it is.

I was also surprised that the ground-based Cartographer revealed an Inferno respawn underground. Well, I just didn't know that.

And the first game, of course, I took him apart like a kitten :D In the late game of the second, I didn't expect him to play like that.

There's something special about this blitz. Completely different impressions from the game.
