Good respawn, plenty of money, native second town, one consulate, home Dragon Utopia, flask +2hp. Horses in the citadel, dragons in the second Castle. I planned to hit two Dragon Utopias, both doubles, but a surrender message arrived; they also had a good start, but the treasure zone was unforgiving, birds pecked me to death for the earth book.
Thanks for the game!

I took a long time deciding whether it was worth taking the Dragon Utopia at the start of week 3. I went for it anyway and it paid off. The Wood Elves died, 8 dragons and almost a hundred Centaurs, but no Captain's Hat, but at least I have all the earth magic, so we live.
By the end of the week the opponent showed up, and we had a fight.
Thanks for the game

I played as if on autopilot. I immediately went to visit the computer. I didn't even pay attention to the starting hero, and that was a mistake. A miner on native soil wiped out the entire army – both the Dragon Flies, the Lizardmen, and the Gnolls.

Found a fast passage to the opponent. It was hard to miss, since the generator was stingy with roads. In terms of army, I had 3 Angels from two Conservatories, 5 Cavaliers, and roughly 60 Archers. The opponent had 5 Birds, 23 Air Elementals, and a hundred Skeletons. Aislinn's mana was only enough for one Shield (Oil), and on top of that, the Birds got Anti-Morale in the first round. Without much of a chance, in my opinion.

The spawn was very generous. Within vision range there were 6 Dragon Fly Hives, 2 Conservatories, 2 external dwellings for Cavaliers, 2 Libraries, a Shield granting +3 Attack and Defense, two artifacts giving +1 to Speed. The main difficulty was not knowing what to approach first – the Hives were either max or near-max, the Conservatories were third or fourth level. Before the final push I took 4 Hives, a level-4 Conservatory, both external Cavalier dwellings, all the useful artifacts, and visited one Library. I also made one serious mistake. I overcomplicated the chains – I had to hire 2 more heroes to make everything work out. As a result, I had no gold left to fight Galthran. A whole day wasted, and because of that, I couldn't pick up the second Conservatory, another Hive, and visit another Library. In the end, the final push came on day 123 with 31 Dragon Flies, 4 Angels, 15 Grand Cavaliers, and two hundred Skeletons. I was very lucky that the opponent wasn't in a hurry and only broke through the Main Town only on day 126. The entire center was, of course, already cleared.
Thanks for the games!

There's not much to describe - I went to the center with 1 angel, 26 ducks, 3 grays, and some minor units. I have mass haste and full mana. The next day, I saw the Miner - his army only had ducks and single pixie units, and he had no mana... I attacked - mass haste, onslaught, and GG.
Thanks for the game.

Why did it take so long, you ask, considering we could have reached each other without going through the Global Order? It's simple: the opponent had a fourth town, and even with double 12346 in the Citadel and 12346 in the Fortress, I couldn't kill him on level 121. So, I headed to the Treasury, where it connected with another Treasury. As a result, we scattered, and I slowly advanced towards the Snowy Treasury, as the double town was yielding its benefits, and Shakti was perfectly upgraded with Offense, Tactics, Earth, Logistics, Wisdom, Shooting, Defense, and Air. After consuming a huge Snowy Treasury and having armies of armies (including a Utopia, by the way), I returned and took his main Castle in 2 turns on the 4th week. He went to another Treasury at that time, and I discovered another Utopia in the snow in 2-3 turns – I decided to return because I was stronger in magical stats, and he only had Chain Lightning and Ice Bolt. Also, the opponent had all his Earth magic with Teleport. As a result, in the Utopia, I got a royal boost: armor +4+4, armor +10 strength (which brought my strength to 26), and Knowledge. After that, the game ended in 2 turns.
Shakti 20-15 - 26 (230) vs Tamika 21 - 13 - 9 -(95)
Shakti's army: 200 upgraded halberdiers, 177 archers, 11 angels, 34 champions, 77 crusaders, 89 griffins, 35 vivs
Opponent's army: 600 skeletons, 66 vivs, 1 angel, 9 liches, 6 death knights, and 1 mythical dragon with 15 trolls
I don't know why there were so few skeletons ;( I immediately attacked his vivs with Implosion for 3300 - 44 vivs or so :) (by the way, the opponent had a Cloak of Resistance, but he didn't wear it because he was standing 2 turns away from his main town on the road and didn't know that I had Teleport to the town, and I reached him with 3500 movement points).
Thanks for the game.
