I got a very weak map for the hives and conservatory. My opponent somehow managed to get a good start, and by week 3, I had taken all his castles except for two villages. But, I have to give him credit; he made me work hard – he found stats, some control, and started playing as a demonologist. In general, as soon as I found the book of air magic, I caught up with him. The red orb also helped; there was a lot of spell power there. Silence-, thanks for the game!!

After restarting, things went completely wrong: no money at the respawn point, a difference of 3 heroes, and a blocked path. The nearest castle was Inferno, so I took it and then decided to go into demonology because I didn't have any money and nothing good seemed likely in the near future. At the same time, I found a necromancer, which I used to harass. Somehow, I managed to improve my stats and army, gathering about 70 demons, 160 skeletons, 70 crossbowmen + some minor units by the beginning of the third week. I saw wings and Dragon Utopia in one treasure zone and a +10 sword and 2 Dragon Utopias in another. I decided to go for the wings, building a chain to transport my army back and forth. But then, my opponent came out from around the corner, broke the chain, killed the hero with 160 skeletons, and everything went very badly. As a result, he cut me off from the sword and, on top of that, found stats of 4 22 4 4 while mine were approximately 10 10 10 10. I decided to give up on the map entirely and try to make something work with the wings while my opponent doesn't have control. In the end, I got the wings and started attacking elementals – I was very surprised when I realized that oil doesn't work on them; I almost lost everything, leaving only 70 demons. I was ready to surrender, but unexpectedly, I got +10 all stats in the Dragon Utopia, losing some demons and meat from the nearest village. I decided to keep playing – I found 3 clues, gained some vipers, and then went to the far treasure zones away from my opponent – there, I found another 3 or 4 hives and Dragon Utopias, totaling about 30 vipers and 60 demons, as well as huge stats, approximately 30 30 25 25. I saw КЗ and thought I was back in the game, but on the same day, my opponent attacked me with KSH. Thank you for the game.
