We started playing without rests. The start in terms of heroes can be described as cognitive dissonance:) On one hand, Gunnar arrived, and on the other, Stracker as a second necro. And as a result, a handful of skeletons from the start (40), - that's including the external dwelling of skeletons. Since Malcolm was the hero with the army, not Gunnar, there were centaurs for a speed boost. At the start, zombies were built. And thanks to Stracker, there were 27 of them in total. So on 112 I upgraded them. The starting artifact was the Ring of Life (the necro sold it to me cheaply). Even though I was in the dungeon and the respawn seemed small - I still decided to play this deal. But for a whole week there was no money. Constant losses in battles. And as a result, only 100 skeletons by 117. I barely managed to build Liches on the last turn in the Citadel. Sulfur was simply not available until I entered my own computer's territory in the dungeon. On 122 I killed my Inferno computer and headed to my corner treasure zone. But this road to the computer was just like a road straight to HELL. :smile51: It stretched from the very corner of the map. And there was NOTHING USEFUL THERE, except for a Dwarf Cottage along the way.
Only on 124 I captured Boots on the respawn. I miscalculated the guard, otherwise I could have done it much earlier. Such a facepalm :smile35: I lost a ton of movement points.:( On 127 I was just short of reaching my corner village( But by that time I had already gathered 550 skeletons. 100 of which came from 4 external peasant dwellings in zone No. 22. On 131 I arrived at Dragon Utopia 1-2. On 132 I took it with a supply caravan. It turned out to be a mini Dragon Utopia with Sword + 5 All and Shield of the Damned for +6 Def, also on this turn I captured a box of 30 Dragon Flies behind an Army of Fire Elementals. Finally! On 132 a unit for speed! :smile12: There were simply no Griffin Conservatories! On 133 I grab the Cloak of Reckoning for 20+ Unicorns and build Mage Guild 4 in the native town. They give Resurrection. Resources are running out :( On 134 I take a triple Dragon Utopia in zone 22. I lose 6 Necro Horses, 10+ Vampires, 70 Skeletons there. I get KZ! ;) , as well as Cuirass of the Titan for +10 SP and 2 bags of gold. On 135 I rush to the central city. On 135 I jump into the teleporter and use View Earth to see how the road continues and where the city is. I roughly calculate how many moves are needed and decide to take it. On the last moves I just barely manage to also enter the central Conflux city and replenish mana with Expert Intelligence :rolleyes: On 137 I go into a Maxi-Cyclops dwelling with 900 skeletons and 16 Ducks. I didn't take the Dragon Flies, and it was a MISTAKE! :mad: Because with speed 4 I only blocked 2 Stacks, and blocked the Giant Snakes with the Ducks. And what do you think? THE GENERATOR ALWAYS PUNISHES STUPIDITY! 2 uncovered stacks attack with direct arrow and BOTH GET MORALE!! What a pain this is. I threw my mouse off the table. Then quickly picked it up :D , because the timer was at ZERO! At the cost of a hundred skeletons I build Mage Guild 5. They give Air Elemental:D On 141 I rebuild Mage Guild 5: they give Implosion. :o On 142 I rebuild Mage Guild 5 again: Earth Elemental:p On 143 I take a Pandora's Box for 20+ upgraded Necro Horses - they give 35 Storm Elementals, also I find the 3rd Dragon Utopia.:rolleyes: And on this same turn I also rebuild Mage Guild 5: they give Sacrifice:D On 144 I take a Dragon Utopia: Triple with KS, Gladius of the Titan for +12 Attack and Helm for 10 Knowledge.And on 144 after the 5th rebuild they give Dimension Door in the Mage Guild!!! Hooray!! :smile03: I also built an Artifact Market in the Conflux village. And bought 2 missing parts of AOTD there! The Armor of the Damned is assembled!:smile01: On 145 I scout my super treasure zone on the snow, the entrance to which is somewhere unknown. No flight spell, I leave from there to enter from the side of my corner castle with Dimension Door. On 147 I see from the view how the opponent leaves his Army at the loh area near the Castle computer's city. I check gold - I have the least. I think: he must have built a portal. I count moves and jump through the central Conflux village via 2 Dimension Doors to him and cover his entire army with AOTD and KS. Andres surrenders.
PS: I NEVER FOUND A SINGLE GRIFFIN CONSERVATORY! The army consisted of 1800 skeletons, 34 Storm Elementals, 22 Ducks and a few Dragon Flies. The opponent had 8 Angels, 50+ Ducks (30 of them Monarchs), 45 Greater Basilisks, 27 Lizards and a few Dragon Flies.

Thanks to Andres for the match![/SIZE] :smile20:
Lately, I can't even remember why I used to like 8mm6a ). You open half the map - practically no objects. I'm not even talking about Dragon Utopias. There are essentially almost no Crypts, Naga Banks, or Dwarf Cottages. It's not just stats and control, buying and upgrading the army is a problem. The last 3 games have had this tendency. Well, what can I say about the game: I captured castles and even built a Griffin Conservatory and Dragon Fly Hive on the last game week, but what's the point if there's absolutely no control. I found 2 Dragon Utopias - a mini and a triple. In the triple, all 2 + all 3 + Boots of the Sea (the opponent has basic ones all 5 those + shield + 6, so more interesting) and a minimum on shield + 12. 4 Mage Guild rebuilds didn't give control. In the end, it was quite predictable that the opponent crushed me. It felt like some kind of garbage game.
Thanks for the game!
