Block with 50-99 lizards on the main road, but a big respawn in the underground + upgraded harpies. At first glance there was one stack of minotaurs, then I found another one. Kalid, Sephinroth, and Rizza came. Essentially I had a mine right off the bat. I ran around, leveled Shakti, and collected resources with the rest. On day 1 week 2 I had minotaurs in the castle (without a portal, since I took Troglodytes in the stacks). On day 2 week 2 Shakti ran through the block, easily took a 2-stack conservatory, then another 3-stack. Found a double Tower, fairly upgraded, could have stuck Titans in for the late game. At the end of week 2 I built the 4th level guild, and it gave me Town Portal immediately. The game promised to be tempo-based, since I also had a Conflux town with a university. But then the opponent ran in, killed the green hero. I built the 5th level in the castle, and it gave me Implosion, but I was afraid I wouldn't make it in time and went in as is (my army looked stronger by stats and size). After the initial spell exchange, the opponent realized there was no hope and quit when his Magic Mirror wore off on turn 3 (due to Sorcery 2).

Thanks for the game!
