Opponent retried twice, there was 1 more respawn. I started immediately without respawns after seeing my native AI town of Rampart and an external dwelling of Grand Elves, and to top it off, Ivor came with 5 Elves and the main with 3. On day 5, I only reached the AI town due to bad roads. By the end of the week, I built Cavalry in my home Castle. On day 121, I traded at 2 markets, moved everything out, and ran to the center. Along the way, I took Necromancy Boots, previously there were 2 Necromancy artifacts. In a couple of turns, I made 100 Skeletons. Reaching the center, I saw the opponent. I checked all passages with scouting in every direction. I realized the opponent was nearby and ran to him. He sat in the Castle wanting to replenish mana without a Stronghold. 45 Grand Elves and 10 Attack on Kyrie were irresistible. Thanks for the game.
I confirm. The game started pretty well: I picked up Speed Boots for free, quickly ran and captured the AI's Castle. But then difficulties arose: there was a catastrophic lack of gold and resources for respawn, even buying through markets wouldn't have helped. In the end, I spent the entire second week running around resources and gathering scraps, saw a level 1 Griffin Conservatory, but the opponent never let me take it, attacking with his entire army. Magic was quite well upgraded, but there was no mana for the fight. Thanks for the game.
