Favorites, to battle! - 8 - The Battle of Favorites! - 8

It turned out to be a very interesting game with a lot of action and adrenaline .......
Thanks for the game!!

The game really turned out to be insane!

On 111 I thought for a long time about whether to take re. The pros were:
a) Tribute b) Gosh c) Respawn of Dragon Fly Hive and external dwelling of wood and elves, though with hellish guard (which I never broke through)
The cons - very, very little gold and a tiny starting army! And still we play.

First week:
on 114 via no-road I reached my double having 6 elves and 36 Centaurs. I was greeted by a cheerful Eleazar with a crossbow, 50 mana + 25 dwarves + 60 centaurs + 7 elves + 5 pegasuses + 3 treants.... My eyes nearly popped out. I had to micro and lure him out of the Citadel. In short, the double was only taken by 117. Left with 6 heroes, no gold at all, absolutely NO gold!! The rogues didn't even get built. The army was in tatters, the tempo was lost completely.

Second week:
From the army I have 23 Grands, some centaurs + 180 Gosh's skeletons.
I collected the first 2 Griffin Conservatories and both level-1 dwellings + 12 dragon utopias!!! No army, but the reds are crawling very close, and there are 5+ angels + a ton of bones + stats are glowing!

Third week:
Took the Tribute + max Griffin Conservatory.
On 132 Clavius with fort-butt burst into my town, I accidentally killed Gosh's man who was supposed to buy back and go to the treasury!
On 133 he saw my Dragon Utopia and ate it, damn it! On the same turn I eat another Dragon Utopia level-3, left a lot of stuff there, ended up with 5 angels + Grands, gave absolutely nothing!!!
Scout hero wars begin, to stabilize the situation I have to come up with some twisted mega chains, changing to zero every day! By the end of the week I manage to drive all the filth out of my territory, but it cost me all my timer, all gold and all resources.

Fourth week.
Perches+boots+fast scout heroes. Managed to collect 14 angels + leftovers.
And on 143 an accident happens, I wanted to take his Castle because several scout heroes under the cover of the main made another attempt to break into my territory!
Clavius is slow, I figured he can't reach me at all, but he had control there, damn it! Namely Town Portal, and on the LAST (the last move, Carl!) move he reaches me. And even in that case FB would have been carried without problems if not for the time trouble with the timer, those sneaky 4 dragon utopias snuck into my army and ruined all my morale! Had to buy back on 4 angels.
Launched another carousel of scout heroes and micro-warriors, and by 147 I managed to leave the opp with 3 towns against my 8.

Fifth week.
Still no control. Went into a huge and final super-treasure via no-road, I can no longer split or quickly transfer armies, and that filth (opp's scout heroes) crawled out of every crack, equipped with artifacts and decent armies with mana close to 100.
Even though I had 7 towns and a furious Kyrre on 214, two boxes on all fire and all water finished me off.

Thanks for the game! There was really a lot of adrenaline!
