Mizrael (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def. horror145 (blue, Stronghold, Crag Hack, Crag Hack) Jebus Cross 125

It went reasonably well; I took a few Hives, and there were no hidden resources or ambushes. Shakti got the Earth artifact and started gathering resources from the village; the first Hive was taken. I moved to the center at the beginning of the second week, grabbing a Guardian Angel from the spawn point. In the center, I found a level 30 Andar with an offensive and armor bonus, but no elemental bonus. I took a few more Dungeons, but the heroes weren't great, and there was no one to replace Shakti. I defeated him for the mana in the Boots of Swiftness, while Andar cleared out what she could with the Dungeons. Then Crag Hack arrived and attacked the scout, who was supported by meat shields, so I had to pay him off. On my turn, Andar got the meat shields and, with over 200 mana, attacked Crag Hack in his Castle. The ballista immediately dealt chain lightning damage, and in response, there was an explosion... On the second round, another chain lightning attack and a bribe; Crag Hack was left with 7 Angels, and Shakti got the meat shields and artifacts and returned to the center, again with mana. I found a treasure chest with 20 Djinns. The plan was to continue into the center, but the opponent, having lost his single-unit heroes, wasn't very successful in fighting with a couple of Guardians and decided to surrender. Thanks for the game.

The start was good; I got the Boots of Swiftness from the skeleton on level 111, and on level 112, I found gloves in another skeleton xD. There were 2 Hives near the Castle, and I found 3-4 Guardians on the way. The army wasn't great, and there were no hidden resources, so I decided to build a group of Bears and start taking Hives. Until level 115, I focused on expanding, taking Crag Hack to the upgrade locations. I moved to the main location. On level 116, I built the group of Bears and checked the first Hive; it was a large one. I decided to attack with all my meat shields. In the end, it was a complete loss. Until level 121, I focused on gathering resources and setting up chain lightning traps. I bought the growth bonus and took 2 Hives near the Castle, then moved and took 2 more Hives. I freed a hero from the Dungeon and moved Crag Hack to the Guardian 3-4 location. I lost 3 ducks in the main location without any single-unit heroes. Then, with 1 Bear, I ran to the Grand Order. Crag Hack still didn't get the Earth artifact. I built chain lightning traps on the remote Guardians, resulting in about 14 Angels and 28 ducks. On level 125, I emerged from the spawn point with 2 Grand Order heroes, Angels, and Unicorns. Immediately near the Grand Order Castle, I took it and then took Pandora, clearing out all the air units. The Utopian received some stat boosts, and with the group of Unicorns, I got the Book of Earth. I moved to the main location to replenish mana. On level 126, I moved back to the Castle, and on the way, I saw the central Castle, dealt damage, and attacked. After that, the opponent told the rest of the story
