Favorites, to battle! - 9 - The Battle of Favorites! - 9

The first week went by at a good pace - all 3 AIs were captured, but due to money issues the nagas weren't built, though the unicorns were. The end of the first week and the start of the next were under the motto of Rabinovich "carefully between the drops" - I maneuvered against Ramp's Sielle and Elshar, with only remnants of gremlins left from the army that I wanted to preserve, and no money for splitting either, so the first Griffin Conservatory was only taken on 125. By the start of the third week, 2 treasure zones were cleared - the 2nd Griffin Conservatory and 3 hives were taken, GO - gr cyclopes, plus a small and sandy Inferno Center - I'm moving into the unexplored treasure zone just as slowly, splitting only with the main hero(( Only by 137 did I clear everything, have 900 skeletons, 34 vives and 6 angels - at least someone will reach the cyclopes) Next I took the opponent's unbuilt main, made demons (with no external dwellings only 200 of them by FB), searched for cyclopean forges, because it suddenly turned out that there aren't many ore mines)) The opponent with almost 2 times better stats and control (but with 2 times smaller army) ran, jumped and bounced, but with an act of will I didn't agree to a draw, waited a week or two (artifacts for resources rule)), finally built up control, albeit without Dimension Door, found AOTD to the already existing Crown of the Supreme King and left no chance in the agreed-upon finale. It would have worked out even without that probably - but I was afraid of the growth of ducks and hydras from an external dwelling of 2 swamps (even though the 2nd opponent didn't build it). Still better than taking a beating from a hero with 2 times better stats while having a 2 times advantage in meat) Thanks for the game.
