I have an excellent respawn with 3 roads, plenty of gold, +3 crypts, and a Dwarf Cottage (15). On day 2, an 8-hero split, and Alkin comes in and immediately grabs the log (also a stable at the respawn). On 117, I took the adjacent Dungeon, and on 121, I broke Griffin Conservatory 1 at my own location. Then I moved towards the adjacent Stronghold and picked up boots and Griffin Conservatory 2 there, plus a couple of Naga Banks, and by 127, Angels were built in the Castle. Meanwhile, the opponent arrives at the adjacent Dungeon and steals Griffin Conservatory 2 right from under my nose and runs. I chase him through the treasure zone, which has +2 all and Dragon Utopia 2 (gave KB hat 4+4 and Golden Bow). A few days later, the final battle, but no chance.
Thanks for the game.
