Saw by observatory that my starting zone contained a lot of gold and decided by day 3 to try to go for Sea Serpents week 1 + castle even without a level 7 dwelling in my zone. Unfortunately, because of my own mistakes I only had Citadel by 121. The plan week 1 was also to go to Brown, however, I managed to move in the wrong direction and instead decided to try and rush towards Blue, but then ended up in Orange's zone instead. By 125 took my first con which provided two angels and I started gaining some momentum. Later caught Cassiopeia without her whole army and she surrendered within possible reach of Blue's main town through a portal, but the road on the other side proved too long without fly - and so I retreated back looking for more cons and control. Some rounds later I found TP in Shrine of Magic and then took my first Utopia which gave a lot of much needed stats. I was now in a good position of control with many towns and thus opportunities, but when Cassiopeia moved towards one of my towns with her whole army, I saw that I could defeat her now rather than later. In FB I caught most of Blue's weaker army with a deadly Meteor Shower before he had a chance to surrender. The rest of the battle was a mop up. Afterwards, opponent called 'gg'.

Thanks for playing !
