It was interesting to play... I explored the zones, I think faster than my opponent, and I had several excellent heroes, including Septienna :).
I cleared my treasure locations, and I broke into the central treasure location, where I didn't find anything at all. I placed archons on week 4. By the end of the game, I had 14 of them + the last reserve was very far away. From my treasure locations, I found slightly worse stats, but I dug up Crown of Sorcery and Amulet of the Titans. So, my main hero, Septienna, rushed with damage dealers to take my opponent's castle, with +1 speed, wearing equipment that gave her 28 speed points.
Unfortunately, she didn't make it to the castle; she met the enemy mage head-on, who had a huge (112) number of monarchs, and who, unfortunately, had equal speed, meaning the first speed (16), and my birds resisted his chain lightning spell wonderfully, after which a very pleasant Armageddon left 3 stacks of 5 monarchs each :) well, gg.
I agree, I was luckier here; I didn't think that 16 speed would be too little; I should have brought Archangel with me...
Thank you for the game!
