The game was intense, and in the end, we chose all the restarts and relied on luck. Fortunately, Ivor appeared with 10 grand units. Overall, the stat advantage was initially with Kosti, but then he didn't quite make it to reach me, and on my turn, I found a quest and a powerful hero from the dungeon with the Amulet of Wisdom and the Air artifact, boosting his intelligence. With them, I quickly started clearing the map. In the end, I amassed 317 monarchs.
Thanks for the game!
It was a very frustrating loss. I also had a good start. 137 could (and should have) defeated Kirr with the Knight Shield, bracers, and superior stats/army. But for some reason, he stopped at a +1 spell power shrine on the way and didn't get the 10 mana points. On his turn, Kirr raised the Castle, and I gained control with 212+, but a bunch of unit upgrades didn't help. CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN WHY YOU NEED +1 SPELL POWER WHEN ATTACKING WITH A KNIGHT SHIELD AND BRACERS??? Thanks for the game!
