We played without restarts; my main ended up on 1/4 of the map. On the first turn, I found a hidden spot with archers, then discovered 2 hidden spots with crusaders and 2 more hidden spots with archers. Later, I found boots +5 to creatures of level 2. I was already thinking about breaking into the Guardian Order on the 2nd week, but I decided not to risk it. At the beginning of the second week, I broke into the adjacent zone with the Necropolis, had some fun there, then broke into the main and ran towards the Guardian Order. On day 131, I killed about 120 trolls. Wistan was not far away. After playing hide-and-seek for 5 days, Wistan ran towards his main, where he managed to send reinforcements. Valeska, with 147 upgraded archers, quickly shot down the entire army. Thanks for the game.
p.s. are there always so many hidden spots on small maps?:)
thanks for the game)
The game turned out to be very long - the general secondary zone between us was inconvenient to access.
I started as Bron; in the first week, I took about three crypts and built up hydras in the Stronghold with wyverns. My home zone was simply monstrously large.
The passage between us was guarded by a lot of phoenixes, which no one ever broke through. I quickly took 4 castles (two in the underground) and took Utopia, where I was given a level 5 magic hat. To complement this, I built up the guild in the Necropolis, which happened to have Town Portal and Implosion. However, I lacked Knowledge. I had to wander around the zone and raise my level. The opponent was the first to break into the surface treasure zone and cleared out the hives there, but was afraid to attack 50 Lord Vampires (on the 4th week) for a +6 helmet. I wasn't afraid, grabbed the helmet, and thanks to that, killed the opponent in the final battle with negligible losses.
The opponent had boots and gloves (plus, he is a logistics specialist) and a built-up DD.

It happened, I confirm!
But there were 86 lords, not 50. And I had 12 non-buffed wyverns, 6 non-buffed behemoths, 60 goblins, 43 riders, and 13 rushes. I was afraid to take the helmet with heavy losses, and besides, I didn't have proper magic then. In short, one artifact decided the game! Thanks to the opponent for the game! We ran around quite well. =)
We picked several restarts until the distribution seemed playable to both of us.
Crag came with two stacks, Zubin brought three more; Wolf Raiders are not built.
111 - 4 heroes, I spread out to respawn, immediately see a Dragon Utopia and 1 Griffin Conservatory, I move Crag along the road, there are 50-99 Pikemen blocking the entrance down, I break through, on the exit there are 20-49 Guards, I decided not to engage, went further along the road.
112 - Crag gets Loc 1, level 2, a scout finds a second Griffin Conservatory, I see an Orc external dwelling; 5 heroes
113 - I see ГО (20-49) Giants, I smile, I keep moving =) Scouts are still exploring the respawn, which takes up quite a large territory of the entire map. Birds (Griffins) are being built, one is recruited.
114 - minor skirmishes.
115 - I see a prison, under 100 Gnolls, Crag takes it - gets Air Magic, inside is Bron (5 Basilisks, Expert Defense), well I think he'll go great as a second front. But then comes unexpected news that the opponent surrendered on 99 upgraded Wolf Raiders, it's a shame we couldn't finish the game, it should have been an interesting match.
The timeline of events may suffer a bit, since I forgot to start the autosave.
Thank you to the opponent for the game, good luck and success in future games!

Kreg arrived with two stacks, Zubin brought three more; Wolves are not built.
111 - 4 heroes, spreading out across the respawn, I immediately see the Dragon Utopia and 1 consu, Kreg goes along the road, there are 50-99 spearmen guarding the entrance down, I break through, at the exit there are 20-49 guards, decided not to push, continued along the road.
112 - Kreg gets a local 1, level 2, the loser finds the second consu, I see an external dwelling of orcs; 5 heroes
113 - I see ГО (20-49) giants, I smile and move on =) The losers scout the rest of the respawn, which occupies a fairly large territory of the entire map. Birds are being built, one is bought out.
114 - minor skirmishes.
115 - I see a prison with nearly 100 gnolls, Kreg takes it - gets air, inside is Bron (5 basilisks, expert def), well I think he'll work great as a second front. But then comes the unexpected news that the opponent wiped on 99 upgraded wolves, pity we couldn't finish, it should have been an interesting game.
The chronology of events may suffer slightly because I forgot to start the autosaver.

Kuts Alexander Vladimirovich, after the weekend, we might need to replace someone, so be prepared. We'll have interim results on Monday :)
Let me know when you're available to play.
I cleared all the rest stacks, the map generated a huge respawn, not a single external dwelling, not even useless dwarves; not a single hero brought an elf, neither on day 1 nor day 2. Kyrre got Earth and Tactics though, and leveled up quickly. I only took the ore mine in week 2 — couldn't find the passage, then found it blocked. Ran around the respawn for piles of wood, only on turn 124 did I break through to a Necro secondary with 5 upgraded unicorns, 80 upgraded Centaurs, 16 Grand Elves, and 4 Pegasi; on turn 125 the opponent surrendered. Thanks for the game!!
P.S. There was only one mistake) Giving me Rampart))
Ingersol, were you building a Mage Guild under a level 5 hat to use its spells?
I was leveling up a guy with expert fire skills, and I built a guild in Necropolis for him. They didn't give me a Berserker there, so I had to switch back to a Knight with earth skills.
And the level 5 hat – there's only one level left to upgrade it.

And the level 5 hat – it only needs one more level to be completed.

I cleaned out all the external dwellings, it spawned a huge respawn, not a single external dwelling even of useless dwarves, not a single hero on 1 or 2 or brought an elf, Kyrre did get Earth and Tactics and leveled up quickly. I took the lumber mill only on week 2, couldn't find a path, then found it with a block. I rushed around the respawn for piles of wood, only on 124 I broke through to the necro secondary with 5 upgraded unicorns, 80 upgraded Centaur, 16 grand elves, and 4 pegasi. On 125 the opponent surrendered. Thanks for the game!!
