The original map is good, but I encountered my opponent too early. My main force, along with a small contingent of troops, was completely surrounded and captured, forcing me to retreat and losing my initial advantage. My opponent also had excellent luck, building two Griffin Towers in the first week and obtaining two Angels. They then encountered Kyrre and headed straight for my main city. I couldn't defend, and although I managed to acquire 5 Angels in the end, my forces were still outnumbered, and I couldn't turn the tide.
Thanks for the good game.
