We took almost all restarts (I had 1 left), played relatively average drafts. I had, perhaps, slightly better and more convenient ones.
On day 111 I scouted 2 Dragon Fly Hives, a Dragon Utopia, a Library — seemed great. However, that, essentially, was the extent of my respawn.
On day 113 I scouted a ГО — gr. unicorns, behind them — ЧД. The dragons are panicking, but it's very inconvenient. I took a Castle village. Jeremy leveled up to 7th level on chests — Pathfinding, Attack. Found an external dwelling of hydras!
Took the external dwelling on day 115, by then scouted another couple of 'puffs', but not very convenient ones. And you can't take both cyclopes and wyverns at the same time due to morale...
On day 116 I break back home to the Dragon Fly Hives. I find the Necklace of Swiftness.
On day 117 I get Earth. This turns the draft from mediocre into quite good :). Built hydras in the Stronghold.
At the start of the second week I was still leveling Earth, so the exit was somewhat delayed. The Dragon Fly Hives near home turned out to be 8+4, a bit deeper I found another one with 8, took it while running to the ГО.
Entered the center on day 124, immediately grabbed another Dragon Fly Hive with 4 wyverns.
On day 125 I took the Tome of Air from the devils. Already great. Ran to the opponent's exit, everything is still there, grab a +5 shield.
On day 126 — Shackles of War, a +2+2 sword, a couple of Libraries, Dimension Door — and I refill mana in a dungeon. Nearby — a couple of Dragon Utopias, but it's still hard to take them. I need growth or more army.
However, the opponent pops into the center on his turn. I want to intercept, but there are no troops there at all :) Multiple defeats prevented the opponent from getting a foothold in the game.
Thank you for the game!
played standardly, and overextended :smile16:
the dynamics of Jebus Cross on HotA are significantly slower than in the familiar SoD, much harder to assemble a strike stack! and also with the Cove, whose troops are quite specific in terms of fragility, except for 6-7 lvl, which I had to build
I don't remember the details well due to the time elapsed, but I think I exited as late as day 123, but in the center I got beaten up by some inconvenient nasties (either Sultans or Aspids with their crazy damage) then I also broke through with losses to a ГО near the 2nd exit, but it was already too late, the opponent arrived and GG... thx for the game))
