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

Started playing because of the КВ, spotted on 111 for 20-49 trolls. The beginning turned out to be quite tough; there were few creature banks and those were behind fierce guards. But I managed to set up the economy reasonably well by placing thousands in 5 villages and building up 12346 in the castle, while on 121 I bought almost everything and took the first clue for 40 diamonds. Then I took 2 consas for 3 angels. Next, I broke through the block into the underground treasure zone and there was plenty of room to maneuver—hives, Dragon Utopias, boxes. I collected all this during the second and start of the 3rd week. Also captured a green dragon external dwelling on the second week and portaled in 2 dungeon villages. Parallelly, Kreg was leveling up, who eventually went to crush the reds on 133, but didn't reach the power in the village by a couple of moves. On his turn, Kirry tries to buy off Kreg, gets -17 ducks and surrenders. Thanks for the game!

A promising start, 2 native heroes in the tavern, consa 1ka on 115. On 116, due to elf morale over clues, this same feathered one went to heaven, but by 117 took 2 clues for 16 vives, a giant external dwelling and their portal. And then the problems started. In 5 gms, 16 scrolls, and 7 shrines, I still didn't find slow. Without oil, I lost tons of vives in difficult battles and only found it on 127 via the arriving Gundula by retraining it with Alamar. On 132, the tavern shows Tazar already has 30 defense and views show him in a very fat treasure zone. Having no choice, I jump into an adjacent treasure zone, where I see a Dragon Utopia and +10 sp. But then Kreg hopped over too. Alamar teaches Kirry resurrect. I take the 1ka Dragon Utopia, they give +4 all shield, which is already there. I think about buying off Kreg using tactics, but Kreg also has tactics and first speed, oil = -17 ducks. I try to res, but there's a bonus. I realize that with comrades like Kreg and Tazar it's impossible to compete and I surrender.
Thanks for the game.
