04.01.2016 Nikolaev (red, Stronghold, Crag Hack) lose Freesha (blue, Dragon Utopia, Vessan, Kirr') Jebus Cross 145 The respawn was excellent: my own Castle + Tower, and 2 external dwellings with hippogryphs. I lost momentum trying to capture both external dwellings before turn 117; on the far one, I ran into an upgraded stack of swordsmen, and after that, my opponent gave me an autosave, resulting in a loss of about 2 days. In the end, by turn 121, I had a stack of 7 hippogryphs. The General Order was weak – hydras, but earth magic just wasn't working for me, somewhere around levels 10-12, let alone expert level. Our entrances to the treasure zone were close together, and he exited a day earlier than I planned. We decided to take two Dragon Utopias on our main respawn first. My opponent went deep into the treasure zone along rough terrain, emerged in the center, reached it, and captured the main and only Castle on his respawn. Here, we made a second major mistake: we lingered on his respawn instead of going for the nearby Dragon Utopia. After that, my opponent gathered all the good stuff from the treasure zone and attacked. There was no chance. Although almost demoralized him)) - it just needed a couple more times)). Thank you for the game
