“Two Seasons: Winter-Spring 2016” Tournament. Online games for rating (reports, discussions).

The megashock hit: Griffin Conservatories all over the respawn. The pope was Mullich, who got Logistics, Offense, Defense, Tactics, and Earth Magic. He leveled Necromancer and farmed skeletons to create a Dragon Utopia. On the second [turn/week], in the adjacent zone, I snatched a Dragon Utopia from under the opponent's nose, and it was a single unit with red boots. Among the artifacts for stats, only a Scroll of +4. As a result, Mullich had stats 10 16 versus the opponent's 21 16. On the fourth [turn/week], while I was scouring the underworld for goodies, the opponent bursts in with control into my territory. A few turns earlier, I commented that my 20 angels were terrifying, but he himself had 68 dragonflies against my 20... He didn't reach the capital and, to my joy, turned away for some reason and went to take the secondary Necromancer town. There, of course, the 4th mage guild was already built (Town Portal wasn't given), and that was at least some hope for control, but still, hope for archers is more important, and the opponent's 4 angels could have become them. Besides, the opponent could have created problems for transferring power. Perhaps it was that decision that prevented him from winning. In the end, I set up chains to return to the capital and went to intercept. I took a risk and attacked. He had 4 angels, 4 unicorns, 68 dragonflies, nearly 40 Grand Elves, 2 single units of pegasus, 58 upgraded Centaurs. I had 20 angels, 11 unicorns, 58 Marksmen, 12 upgraded Monks, 20 dragonflies, 17 Crusaders. Surprisingly, the battle went well, especially since the angels got morale when striking the dragonflies. In the end, I lost 2 angels, 20 dragonflies, and 5 unicorns; I killed 4 angels, 28 dragonflies, 30 Grand Elves, the Centaurs, and the pegasus. Then comes the ransom, which gives me some funds for upgrading the angels. I now have 12 Archangels and 6 angels. I plan to hunt; I have 2 more logisticians, a Gundula, and to one Necromancer with Expert Necromancy, another was added.
Surrender follows.

Thanks for the game!
