Sold the red ramp for 4800. Fully resurrected — played for luck. Found an external dwelling of efreeti at home with good guard, an external dwelling of gogs and a Griffin Conservatory under the castle. Bought two necro heroes in the tavern — Vidomina and Nimbus. Decided to go necro, since on 112 I got an artifact for +10 necromancy. Only one road leads to the crossroads, which is good, but further on there is a fork into two one-way portals. Nimbus quickly got expert necromancy and also found another +5 necromancy. Necroed the entire first week to take the efreeti and the Griffin Conservatory 1-2 without issues, cleared the crossroads. By 117 I had gathered 130 skeletons, took the efreeti, checked the Griffin Conservatory — it turned out to be a level 1. Placed the efreeti in the citadel at home. The bad news was that the opponent had Gunnar lit up on 111.
121 started by capturing the Griffin Conservatory almost without losses, then a medusa dwelling and a dwarf dwelling along the way. As a result, I managed to buy everything and had enough resources to start building the Mage Guild and upgrading pits. Neither Marius nor Crag has been leveled up yet, since I broke through almost everything with necros. Split the army a bit: part went forward into the corner treasure zone, part necroed, the third part collected mines in the crossroads. On 123 I upgraded pits, gathered the army into a fist for Marius, who entered the corner treasure zone, but left an angel to the necro so he could go take the castle-company via roadless terrain. In the corner treasure zone I found another level 1 Griffin Conservatory and a mini relic. The necro ran into a block of 20+ cyclopes. The corner treasure zone turned out to have a dungeon village, which was nice. Took the naga dwelling + cyclops dwelling and dropped the entire army on the necro to break through the block and take the castle. At the same time, sent a scout into another one-way portal — it led to the central zone, blocks everywhere, but there is a path to a village that was guarded. Behind the cyclops block was a relic of about 6 vives. Didn't manage to take the castle-company before growth.
On 132 I took the castle company, found a large dwarf dwelling and another naga dwelling at his place, which was nice, and also built Mage Guild level 5 at home — it immediately gave Dimension Door. Marius had expert wisdom and expert earth, but also got a ballista. Re-specced, learned Dimension Door, stayed to replenish mana. On 133 I rebuilt the Mage Guild level 4 — got Town Portal. Not too far away I saw the opponent with an army of 20+ vives, 20+ elves, 1-4 angels and a couple of unicorns. I myself had about 9 vives, ~50 demons, 2 angels, 9 efreeti. Then sent necros forward to necro/scout, while Marius herself went to the central zone to pick up boots and a box. Saw a super treasure zone with a bible and a sword +2 +2 guarded by 100+ monks. Jumped, broke through not without losses, took the bible, moved further ahead — blocks, and I had little mana left. Went to replenish mana, meanwhile necros found a purple company and a corner treasure zone with gloves at the entrance. On 136 I jumped into another super treasure zone, but found nothing useful there either, a couple of hives and a library. Urgently needed a Dragon Utopia to be able to buy the growth and continue demoning, as well as to get angels/archers in the castle. On 137 the scout spotted a Dragon Utopia on the edge in the super treasure zone, decided to leave the second super treasure zone, just in time to double mana, get stables, and go back to the first super treasure zone. At the same time, captured the main of the purple company — a citadel, more meat for demoning.
141 — jumped to the Dragon Utopia, it turned out to be a level 3, decided to take a couple of hives nearby and the Dragon Utopia the next turn. 142 — took the Dragon Utopia, got a sword +12 -3 and trash, losing ~200 bone dragons. Placed angels. Then cleaned up the treasure zone a bit more, but didn't find another Dragon Utopia. By this time Nimbus had necroed about 300 more bone dragons. Captured a village that became a fort under purple's influence, and a tower with the second necro. Prepared to jump from there to take the opponent's village. 144 — finished in the treasure zone, returned home to cut demons and placed archers. 145 had 59 efreeti, 3 archers, 141 demons, 300 bone dragons, good stats thanks to 3 libraries — jumped and took the opponent's village — a swamp, to upgrade the efreeti. The opponent surrendered.
Thanks for the game!
