It was a crazy marathon, but let me start from the beginning. After the first generation with my poor Inferno against the opponent's Rampart, I told the generator to go screw itself and took a restart. Then I realized I might have been too hasty: I should have waited until after all generations. That "sore loser" deliberately gave me a Citadel against a Dungeon. But I didn't lose heart and, still not fully realizing what I had done, took another restart. Well, of course, I get a pair of Inferno against Rampart. It's not hard to guess which side I was on. One thing was good: the dear generator most likely ended up where I told it to go, because the only way to explain that road from the Castle and two lookout towers at the respawn was that it had to draw the map in the dark — there's simply no light there by definition.

However, not everything was so bad. I leisurely dropped onto the neighboring respawn, lost about 20 Magogs there, but managed to build Efreeti dwellings with my last strength. Then, following Amilus tradition, I spent three weeks proving that they, just like the Magogs, are trash. In short, I wasn't losing completely, but certainly not in a way that would let me win. It was logical to see my opponent in the third week with two Red Dragons and 4 Angels, plus all the riffraff from his native Castle. I had taken three stacks of 18 Wyverns. After that, through various means, I reduced them to 7 — long story short, it's easier for me to do that. In the end, the game turned into a different one: catch me if you can. The brick was Mephala. She caught me twice, but the sneaky Alkin kept buying himself out; thanks to the Boots, he also managed to capture all the villages (at this point I regretted giving up Logistics as well). Through all this, the opponent managed to kill 2 Angels.

I forgot to mention: the wretched generator apparently took all the mages along on the journey. (Why do you think my opponent and I played as Warriors?) I didn't find a single one until the sixth week, when Labetha miraculously showed up (now I know where she got her Earth skill).

In the end, the opponent poorly leveled his hero, and Alkin far surpassed him in stats, especially magic stats, which the opponent openly ignored and didn't even pick up artifacts right under his nose — Alkin had to take them. Then I built two GMs to level 5 and gained full control :smile41: , lucky that a Meteor Shower appeared in the Tower at level 4, as there was nothing else offensive from the high-level spells. In the final battle, my 47 Magogs, 52 Zombies, 16 creatures from Pandora's Box, 10 Efreeti, 14 Pitchforks, and 22 Demons, all with Meteor Shower, utterly destroyed the enemy with 42 Grands, 9 Horns, 6 Dragons, 2 Angels, and a hundred Centaurs. Stats decided the outcome, especially since the fight was on home turf. When 42 Grands killed 8 Magogs, I realized that although the girl Mephala is fat, she has no idea how to fight.

Sorry for the long game and thanks for the game. The Boots decided it, giving control over the map; Mephala was dreadfully behind.
