After all the restarts, I got a pretty good map, although the roads were long and inconvenient, but the starting artifacts were +5% Necromancy with Galthran and Nagash's artifacts. So, Kyrre remained a scout. At the end of week 1, I scouted a unicorn dwelling just in time and managed to capture it. I also found a trade post and boots of speed. There was a strong contingent of monsters on the snow, I took it in turns 1, 2, and 3, and it was a maxi stack, but there were no problems with ~260 skeletons and 9 war unicorns. Nagash got Logistics, so I sent him to go along the road and covered another tower AI and fortress town, but the road ended there, so I didn't have much choice but to search for treasure and build a Tower of Magic. Some cyclops stockpiles helped me a great deal. I already had a Town Portal on day 126, but Galthran didn't have Wisdom, and Nagash didn't have Earth (3x Water offered). In the treasure, I found 2 topazes and took them without much loss, however, all I got was +4+4 armor and some gold. Mid-week 3, I got a Dungeon on the 4th build, however, Galthran still had advanced Wisdom, and Nagash was with basic Earth. With the level-up tree, I managed to solve this problem, but I had to skip Logistics on Galthran to get experience in Wisdom. :( I sacrificed some artifacts to have Aine with experience in Earth & Air, and with 3 fast heroes, I managed to take the opponent's castle with an Archangel upgrade. I was lucky to find an unprotected Dessa in that town, so the opponent lost an important hero, and now I surely had the upper hand. A couple of days later, I got Dessa in my tavern, and the opponent gave up.
Thanks for playing!
