There's no defense against a lucky streak!
We agreed to play on Diamond difficulty in HotA. I spent 1 rest, and the map generated with a blocked start – but what a start! A zombie horde, a +2/+2 cloak, 10-19 demons for the Sword of the Dead, and 36 nomads for the Runes of Inevitability (-what a lucky opponent!). Jeremy was in the tavern. Scouting showed that there was no money, but there was a stash of horses. Further scouting also showed where the opponent was and that there wouldn't be much to do in the second week. I decided to take the horse stash and go all-in, taking advantage of the situation. On day 116, I rushed to the opponent and took the Companion Castle, which he had taken a couple of days earlier, cutting off his army from the castle. On day 117, the opponent attacked Jeremy, who was blocking the passage. After the first round, the opponent paid a ransom and, a couple of minutes later, typed "gg."
Thanks for the game!
We saw some very cool relics, +6 to all stats, +5 to all stats, knowledge zone, about 5 drowned, but everything was, of course, blocked. In the end, I found the Companion Castle through a bugged passage and started building up from there, but Jeremy arrived, who, in the first week, can probably only be killed by a Dimmer/Aislinn or Solmyr. He traded 7 lizards (a cannon with a curved arrow dealt 99 damage to them :eek:) for 4 grand and paid a ransom because of the red color, and on day 121, I could have tried to attack with a growth bonus, but I didn't have enough money to buy out the hero with an army :), and it was day 117. The opponent skillfully used his vision and the heroes he received.
Thanks for the game!
