Thanks for the game!
I picked 112 because of road blocks and a triple GO with black dragons.
Next layout, I see: 5 skeleton external dwellings, conservatory, Dragon Fly Hive, and an external dwelling of horses.
True, on day 2 it turned out the horse external dwelling was behind 100+ Orc Chieftains, and the Dragon Fly Hive was the only one on the respawn. But I can't restart anymore — I'm playing.
I accumulated skeletons up to 200, took conservatory-2, found and took the horse external dwelling in the corner of the map. Together with all my army I go at the 100 Orcs, I thought I'd definitely lose an angel or a horse, but it worked out: they took a few skeletons. By the end of the week I found another horse external dwelling, horses in the fort at home, and 2 secondary heroes: Castle and Barbarian. Little gold, no Dragon Fly Hives and no Dragon Utopias, the entire home respawn is scouted.
On day 125 I hit a GO of 50+ gr. ponies and immediately run into an exit to snow. Nothing to do, I go around, find the Book of Earth and Air. The opponent wasn't in a hurry to the center, and I managed to do everything I wanted. I ate all the sand, broke through to grass, there I took Castle and built up to angels. Jebus Cross turned out very poor, I found only 2 Dragon Utopias. Few Dragon Fly Hives, 57 flies, no conservatories, only 1000 skeletons. Galthran: attack 30, other stats 20.
Then the opponent came and GG.

I had a much better map than my opponent and won easily. Thanks for the game!

Disconnected... and I spent so long writing...:smile05:
In the FB it was impossible to predict the winner until the very end, the elves with the Golden Bow took out all the marks in one go, and the dwarves and dendroids steadfastly held the defense, considering that Crag Hack's and Nela's skills were roughly equal, and the Orb of Inhibition prevented casting anything, but... morale, morale, and once again morale... the Archangel did its job...
People, don't give up. If I had seen the starting layout, or even the one on the second month, I would have rated my chances as far from favorable, but "à la guerre comme à la guerre"
Thanks for the game, but, damn, thinking for so long almost every turn is something else... on average I managed to watch one episode of Interns, and the record is 123-3 episodes:D

Respawn is small and full of blocks. I see 2 external dwellings of hydras but the guards are 0_0…
Quickly took 2 villages and built prefectures since it was obvious the respawn was poor and there was nowhere to get money. There is 1 Dragon Fly Hive on the respawn…2 Griffin Conservatories.
But while breaking the guards to the hydras of monks, the external dwelling itself turned out to be difficult…there was no meat left, I didn't go into the pre-max – max Dragon Fly Hive. And without reinforcements, scouts won't take the second external dwelling in the depths of the respawn by themselves. I had to send Taz there with a huge loss of tempo.
The third hydra external dwelling has guards that are just brutal: 50-99 gr of Medusae. It remained as a snack for the second week. I barely scraped together enough for hydras in the castle +2 hydra external dwellings.
While Tazar was returning from the depths of the respawn, he gobbled up that MAX Dragon Fly Hive along the way, and the scouts beat off 2 Griffin Conservatories +2+3… and collected gold from the crypts.
124 Taz fights the GO 64 gr of Unicorns without mass magic, it went hard. -1 angel -1 hydra -2 Wyverns.
Then my opponent comes out, as I thought, from above. And he is exactly one move behind Tazar. Tazar eats everything in his path, while the opponent turned off-road into the treasure zone. Tazar heads towards him and attacks. Bron (7-22) has 8 Archangels. 8 Titans. 8 Green Dragons. and a power stack. Taz (18-25) has 16 hydras, 20 Wyverns, 4 angels, and a power stack. There was a surprise: Bron had a red orb +1 to speed. I almost got stuck, there were 3 Archangels left and my hydra stack…which wouldn't have reached the Archangels and the ГГ, since I had no money for a buyback…but my remaining little army units helped drive the Archangels back, and Bron retreats with 3 Archangels. If the opponent had been more experienced, I would have definitely gotten stuck, but as it is, it was a good lesson for me.
Tazar was left with his 16 hydras, 4 Wyverns, 1 angel. He cleaned up the treasure zone, and by 136, when the opponent decided to take my capital, Tazar quickly recaptured it from Bron.
Thanks for the game!

Respawn is small and entirely blocked off. I see 2 external hydra dwellings but the guard is 0_0…
Quickly took 2 villages and built Prefectures because it was clear the respawn was poor and there was no source of gold. There is 1 Dragon Fly Hive on the respawn… 2 Griffin Conservatories.
But while breaking through the guard to the hydra monks, the external dwelling itself was hard to take… no meat left, and I didn't go into the pre-max/max Dragon Fly Hive. And without reinforcements, the scouts can't take the second external dwelling deep in the respawn on their own. I had to send Taz there with a huge loss of tempo.
The third hydra nook's guard is outright brutal — 50-99 gr medusas. It was left as a treat by the second week. Barely scraped together enough for hydras in the castle + 2 hydra external dwellings.
While Tazar was returning from the depths of the respawn, he gobbled up that MAX Dragon Fly Hive along the way, and the scouts knocked out 2 Griffin Conservatories +2+3.. and collected gold from the crypts.
124 Taz hits GG 64 gr unicorns — without mass magic it was a tough fight. -1 angel -1 hydra -2 Wyverns.
Then the opponent comes out from above as I expected. And is exactly one turn behind Tazar. Tazik eats everything in his path, while the opponent turned into the treasure zone off-road. Tazar heads toward him and attacks. Bron (7-22) has 8 archers. 8 titans. 8 ducks. and a power stack. Taz (18-25) has 16 hydras, 20 ducks, 4 angels and a power stack. There was a surprise: Bron had a red orb +1 to speed. I almost got stuck — 3 archers remained and my hydra stack… which wouldn't have reached the archers and GG for lack of gold to buy back… but my remaining single units helped drive the archers back, and Bron retreats with 3 Archers. If the opponent were more experienced, I'd definitely have been stuck; as it was, a good lesson for me.
Tazar was left with his 16 hydras, 4 Wyverns, 1 angel. Cleaned up the treasure zone, and by 136 when the opponent decided to take my capital, Tazar quickly retook it from Bron.
Thanks for the game!
were the hydras un-upgraded?

Hard start for me with little gold and lots of blocks. But i had some hives near road and got exp slow, so i was able to break on 122. I was not very concentrated and made some stupid mistakes which costed me army and moves, but after i 123 i started to play better. Got stronger army and stats and won easy on 133. Thx for game!
