"only XL-3"

On the very first day, I got Galthran from the tavern and took the boots at the respawn. True, I lost all the blue units on that breakthrough. So the start was very hard and poor. But Galthran is Galthran, designed to snowball from nothing. By the end of the 2nd week, I already had 3 stacks of 100 skeletons, the AI had Conflux, I bought Earth and Air magic from him, and headed for the super treasure. Since I had nowhere special to spend money, and I had already picked up quite a few Dwarf Cottages and a box for 10k gold, I decided to build the Artifact Merchant right away — and there was the Necromancer's Cloak and Boots. On day 132, I reached the Dragon Utopia and got +5 All. Immediately I went for the 2nd Dragon Utopia on the adjacent zone — there were Wings of the Archangel there.
Actually, after that it was necromancy. Galthran ran around the map on foot and bred his uber stack. The opponent shows Jump and Town Portal, but my guild isn't delivering yet. As a result, I of course built both Dimension Door and Town Portal, fortunately the opponent didn't manage to take my main, I re-split back home and relearned everything on Galthran. Toganash kept trying to armageddon me, but didn't dare attack himself, just sacrificed a hero on efreets. I wisely ran past.
As a result of the running around and recapturing towns, Mullich at one point runs out of mana and gets cornered within reach range on Grecian Birds, hoping to buy himself out, but I already have Shackles of War and a highly-leveled Papa gets buried in the tavern, gifting me a few artifacts.
The running continues, now Moner starts running for the stat boosters. But again, at one point the army splits within reach range — the main hero is on the move, the army is on the 2nd hero, the artifacts are on the 3rd. I take out the troops and the main hero with the Handcuffs one by one — surrender follows. Thanks for the game!
