it happened, immediately took revenge and lost in the second week — a slight tactical mistake!

Alex_R (Dungeon Shakti) def Izgoy767 (Castle Catherine/Tyris) 1-2-3
Used both of my restarts — had to play on a small respawn in the underground …
But fairly quickly found an exit to the surface and stumbled upon a secondary Castle … took it, and at the same time scouted a passage past the GO to the opponent, also spotted his secondary Rampart …
A rush plan is brewing, as we were separated by 10-19 Medusas …
On 1-1-7 at my main: 1-4 in the citadel, in the secondary: 1-4 in the fort (not much gold)
The blue player's main hero ran along the path past the Medusas to the adjacent respawn :)
Gathering 18 Archers, 14 Griffins, about 10 Swordsmen + 160 Troglodytes, 7 Evil Eyes, and 3 Harpies, I try to cut off the blue main hero from the capital …
Tyris returned from the fog with a good army … I'm thinking — take the capital or fight him in the field … decided to defeat his main hero — since capturing the capital would cost me many losses, and Tyris could then march on my capital.
I have a lot of resources (but not down to zero) and transfer another 15 Evil Eyes and 18 Harpies + buy 7 Griffins from the external dwelling on his respawn. Got so carried away with the army transfer and positioning that when I approached his main hero, I didn't have time to attack (((.
As a result, the opponent gathers armies from the capital and the secondary Elf town, combines them with the main hero, and attacks me himself on 1-2-3.
Tyris 5-3-1-1 (35 Elves, 5 Cavaliers, 10 Swordsmen, 14 Griffins, 26 Archers and 12 Crossbowmen and 13 Centaurs) vs Shakti 3-6-1-3 (22 Evil Eyes, 160+1 Troglodytes, 21 Griffins, 24 Harpies, 12 Swordsmen and 18 Archers) no spell books for either, but the opponent has +1 speed and probably some morale bonus, since +3 …
In short, I couldn't avoid direct arrow fire from the Elf — who also kept getting morale boosts (5 shots in 3 rounds ((( )
The Troglodytes lured the cavalry and Griffins onto themselves — while everything else of mine went under the arrows — to get to the Elves, who were protected by 13 Centaurs and 10 Swordsmen.
As soon as I broke through and blocked the Elves — I immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and the Troglodytes, having finished off the Griffins and cavalry, wiped out 20+ Elves in the next round …
In the end, Dima probably didn't have enough gold to buy back, while I had 80-90 Troglodytes, 19 Evil Eyes, 7 Archers, and 2 Swordsmen and Griffins each left.
Thanks for the game, especially the final battle :) … eh, if you had defended the Elves with cavalry and Swordsmen — I might not have had a chance ;)
