Restarted, both without restarts for luck. Gave a decent respawn, though the forests everywhere made it hard to spread out, but I found 3 consulates by the end of the first week, took 3 hives for 24 ducks and a Kirja Pandora for 15k exp behind the trolls. Found another consulate, collected them and got 10 angels. Came out on 123 from the jump, and immediately took 10 sp, kv, 4 all. Ate the center and sat at home. I made a mistake by sitting at home with Kirja instead of Galtran (he had both tactics and offense). Dave attacks
Tazar: 7 archs, 50 marks, 35 ducks, 15 minos kings, 25 crusaders, single unit stats 29-20 +2 speed red orb
Kirja: 10 angels, 47 ducks, 14 medusa queens, 1 red dragon, single harpies 24-31 +2 speed, +3 morale
Thanks to morale, I pulled through, but it was tough. Thanks for the game.
