I bought the blue Castle for 3500. Then Gunnar arrived, a couple of Hives and a Consulate (a trio) were revealed, along with a Cloak of 2/2 and Pandora for 8. I gathered 10 Ducks on the first week, Angels in the Citadel, and leveled up Gunnar, focusing on Air expertise towards Giants, although I couldn't find any Haste items until the end of the game. I also got Passfind, Offense, and Fire skills. On the second week, I took the Consulate, added 2 more Hives, totaling 32 Ducks, and got Pandora for the entire map. I took Gunnar without Wisdom :smile49:. I defeated the Utopian and, with the Archons, reached level 125. I managed to kill the opponent's hero and extract a level 23 Melody from the dungeon, equipped with Armor, Earth, and Logistics. On the next turn, the opponent's Miner sniped Gunnar, but I didn't give up, hoping for the revealed Utopian. I took a single hero, and they gave me what I needed: a Crown. The opponent's Castle was nearby, so I flew over, sent in the hero, defeated the enemy, and scouted for good items. I tried to find Gunnar, but to no avail; he never appeared until the end of the game. In general, I cut off the opponent from the center, which turned out to be their home. I kept an eye on them, using Air scouting to track their movements. As a result, I got 10 Angels from Pandora, plus I painted the opponent's Angel lair with my hero. I also got Boots (I already had Gloves) and leveled up my allied heroes: Green, Ziel, and Brissa. I saw movement near the Utopian, close to the opponent's spawn, on day 132. I sent in a hero, and it turned out to be Shaktar, but the Utopian wasn't taken. I teleported home, upgraded the Archons to level 13, and used my hero to get Boots and Pandora for the Devils. There were also 5 more Angels, but I didn't have enough money to upgrade them further. I went to take the Utopian, which gave +5 to all stats on the second level, and Knowledge of the Spheres under Fortress Bonus turned out to be useful because my 14 spells against the opponent's 25 could have been decisive. I was one move short of reaching the opponent, but on their turn, they attacked. Their forces were weaker, and their combat stats were worse because they were relying on magic - GG. Thank you for the interesting game!
