Have you ever had to kill 30 archangels before day 211?:)

Brogh developed well, but the opponent lost by relying on flying units. Thanks for the game!

On the first week I took a swamp conflux, on week 2 an Inferno conflux and a small Conflux village. Seeing in the tavern that my opponent wasn't doing particularly well and blue flags on the horizon, I bought the army from both Inferno towns and went to the opponent. I took a tier-3 Griffin Conservatory from him, killed a few Looses at the cost of half a stack of Magogs, but news of surrender arrived.

Thanks for the game!

I chose all restarts and, as usual, ended up in the worst possible setup of all that had been before. Peter didn't take any restarts.
It was bad because, aside from long roads and gold, there was essentially nothing else. On the respawn, 1 Dragon Utopia and 1 Dragon Fly Hive, which is very little for this template. No treasure caches. On 113, I broke through a 4-sided guard and ran out onto a swamp adjacent zone. I thought the opponent might be nearby and the idea of a restart on encounter crossed my mind. But that adjacent zone led, as it turned out later, to 2 small villages and 2 computers - Necromancers. In the adjacent zone, there was a front-loaded Griffin Conservatory, which was very handy because Marius got Earth magic. On 115, with Inferno Power, I run into the computer's respawn and visit the stables. On 116, I fought 2 mega battles with over-leveled computer Necromancers on their own turf. As a result, out of all the Inferno Power, only 1 Efreet and 5 Demons remained, plus 3 Liches built in the first Necropolis town.
117 - I capture the second computer, where a bonus awaits me in the form of a Town Hall, Guild, Black Magic amplifier, and most importantly - unbuilt Vampires, which I recruit on 117. Also, right next to the castle, there is a front-loaded Griffin Conservatory, a Dwarven Treasury, and a Naga Bank.
In week 1, I managed to build 1-6 in the Citadel in Inferno, 1-5 in the Citadel in one Necropolis, and 1-4 without a Citadel in the other.
121 - I visit the stables with Marius, transfer 6 upgraded Vampires to him, and run to the second Necropolis to take the goodies.
122 - I recruit Nymus with week 2 Power, give him the Vampires to take the Dwarven Treasury. Nymus gets Logistics and becomes a candidate for Main Papa.
123 - Nymus takes a tier-3 Griffin Conservatory. Marius takes a Dragon Fly Hive for 8 Wyverns. I buy Fionna, give her 3 Angels, and clear a Prison for her containing a horde of Grand Elves, where I lose 1 Angel due to a misclick. Fionna gets Explorer.
After that, I fan out with all three good heroes on Angels and Vampires in different directions. Nymus takes a small village, where there is also a Dragon Utopia and a couple of Dragon Fly Hives. Marius takes another Dragon Fly Hive, gets Scouting and Logistics, and prepares to go into the treasure zone. Fionna on an Angel also runs for Scouting.
End of week 2 - Marius level 11 with Logistics, Explorer class, Water and Earth magic. Nymus level 11 with Logistics, Pathfinding, Wisdom, and Scouting, and Fionna with Explorer. From the Power, 44 Wyverns and 4 Angels; there is also an untaken Dragon Fly Hive and 3 Dragon Utopias which I plan to take starting 131.
In week 3, I take all three Dragon Utopias. In the first max-level one, they give КЗ, Shield +4 to All, +6 to All, Wings. In the home Dragon Utopia, they give Cap of 5 Magic, Sentinel's Shield, and Armor +4/+4. Also, I captured a computer Inferno. There was also contact with Bronhild in the super-treasure, where he had already gathered everything. I attacked with Impla, removed 5 out of 8 Angels. Bronhild responded by removing 10 Wyverns and bought himself free. I assembled the Elixir and was preparing to cut down Demons, thankfully I had plenty to do it with - the stats are impressive, Impla at 3.7K, plus battle creatures at 30 each.
Expert Logistics, Expert Explorer, Boots, Stables. On 142, I jumped to Piterius's castle fully armed, Peter decided not to continue.
Thanks for the game!
