A normal start, 2 heroes 350, Moner. On the 1st, horses in the citadel; on 121 I took a comp-tavern, upgraded the horses via the stable, cons were two, then Kreg arrived and I leveled him up. On the 2nd, I placed angels, used Tamika to sneak 350 bones (had boots and a fur coat from the grave) for the Dragon Utopia. Later both Moner and Kreg got screwed, getting complete garbage; I decided to level Tamika, who after taking the Dragon Utopia on 131 (1 with wings) got logu and then perfect leveling. 132 second Dragon Utopia with +4+4, cloak of renunciation. 134 flew over the rocks and stole a hive + Dragon Utopia with slag and boots from an opp; 135 box nearby for 6 archdevils for the whole land, TP home upgrade to 6 archs. Flew into the super-treasure, which I decided not to touch on the 2nd — there were only boxes, no objects. Deeper inside, 2 max Dragon Utopias, 2 libraries, besetniks, a couple of hives were found.
By 143, took a couple of Castles from the opp, had 1300+ bones, ~10 archs, 60 ducks. Realizing that I'm about to crush Solmir, the blues surrender.
Thanks for the game.
That was then. After the restarts expired, "g" started playing — a bypass block by a horde of lizards on the only road from the Castle. Money was catastrophically low not only at the respawn but also in adjacent areas; there were no buildings there either. On the first, also harsh clashes with comps; green — Demer was strengthening with a shovel. I couldn't avoid attacking the comps because there was simply nowhere else to get money. The tempo was very low. Started running through the metro and teleports, hitting blocks everywhere in the guts and observing a hopeless void. Took double and bought items, also upgraded using resource consumption; scouted 2 Dragon Utopias and decided to play through them. Led Taz to the first of them via the forest. Since I only found 3 cons in 2.5 weeks, it was inconvenient in the stone and snow roadless areas, and eventually totaling 4 angels, so the strike stack for the Dragon Utopias consisted of about a dozen nagakwins. But when the opp at the start of the third flashed stats near 40 and a pile of money, I realized things were getting heated. Another day later he takes the forest and the Dragon Utopia where I had led Taz. It became clear that everything is heading towards ГГ, but there was still one more Dragon Utopia; I continue to hope for a miracle. I take it — a double with all 2 and a bag of money.
Meanwhile, the opponent demonstrates total domination, possessing full control and a wonderful army. He didn't hesitate and went for the Castle selection. Neither did I.
ГГ, thanks for the game!
