Armageddets (Red, Dungeon, Geon, Alamar) loses to Ubity (Blue, Stronghold, Wei, Vokial) in a Skirmish m200

After two restarts, we started the game. Near the Castle, there was a good amount of resources, and a bunch of mills were located close to the Castle. Two Necropolises were quickly captured. Two Troglodyte dwellings and a Cyclops lair. So, there was no question of restarting. I clear my starting area. Taking a second Castle was not feasible – the path to the secondary Castle was blocked by Griffons guarding the Beastiary. The path from below is also blocked by Demons. On the third week, I take a second Castle, grabbing a gold mine with my Thieves. Then, I plan to run for a third Castle, but an opponent appears from above. I bring my hero and army back along the chain, but the opponent turns around and leaves. I end up being pushed back. I set off again, clearing out the Demons along the way, but the third Castle is also blocked by upgraded Demons, so I pass by it. I speed up and prepare to attack a new starting area. And then I see the opponent speeding up. I attack him. He has two upgraded Harpies. I kill one, and he flees with the second. I manage to damage his army with my hero. Then, the opponent buys reinforcements and attacks. I kill his birds and flee with a large army to avoid losing my hero. He starts scouting my area. I take one of his Castles with my hero, and then the second while he was heading towards me. Then, he retakes his Castles, gathers all possible artifacts, takes the only Utopia on the map, and comes to attack me. Thanks to magic, I could have won in the Castle, but his magic resistance skill deflected my spells four times. So, with heavy losses on both sides, the opponent won. Thanks for the game.
