I also had to play the second game as Blue due to an error by Cherk in the first game. Three native computers, with Brown and Green having no Elves from the start but having 50 Centaurs. In the first few days, I crafted a Shield+4. The map generated a bugged path to the Brown computer through Scorpions along the only road. I reached him on day 114, and he was holed up in the Castle with all his power, but there was no choice — I had to attack with Inteus and the shooter. I had 40 Centaur stacks and 6 Elf stacks, while the computer had 50 Centaurs, 12 Elves, 5 Pegasi, and Dwarves. I thought I wouldn't get out of there, but key morale events didn't trigger (not Orange after all), and thanks to the shooter, I managed to pull it off at the cost of almost my entire army. I thought there would be a rematch at the meeting, but Red wasn't in a hurry to break through to the computer, so we played on. Thanks to the external market, I managed to place Horsemen in the Citadel in both Castles. There's nothing else to do on the map — no objects. The only road leads to a teleport to the opponent. I decided to collect all money objects, dump all resources, and with full purchasing either attack the opponent or take the path through the wilderness past a prison, a couple of Dwarf Cottages, and a route to Green and the other computers. Through a chain, I pick up a couple of Medusa Huts and a prison with 100 Golems for a strong hero — Alamor, level 10 with Advanced Earth Magic. On day 123, Scorpion decides for me and makes contact with 2 Birds, 30 Air Elementals, and 5 Psychic Elemental decoys, which was very imprudent on her part against a double. I level up Earth Magic with Alamor, split into the second ramp, and attack with full purchasing. In the face-to-face battle, there was no alternative.
Thanks for the game!
