Played on medium map, normal research, PBEM 1.30, random leaders.
AD first hero, friendly neighbour, but didn’t give me a quest in time and so was captured and absorbed. With help of rune cleared sphinx temple on turn 7 and researched golems early. Leveled up 3 engineers to elites to use them in conjunction with golems in secondary stacks, but managed to build only one stack with 2 golems, engineer and second DN hero which was able to clear ziggurat and dungeon. AD hero converted a few animals and the main stack cleared 2 dungeons and another ziggurat with help of shrine and regrowth.
Shit happened on turn 16 when roaming animals attacked my secondary stack and killed 4 units including an almost evolved elite spider.
My main stack vassalized feys in the middle of the map and discovered a max leveled opponent’s theocrat hero with elite mammoth riders. Stack was buffed by a wizard king shrine and was in one turn from the wizard tower which I was going to take myself in 2 turns. It was obvious that he was going to take it on the next turn and I decided to set up a trap. I concealed one stack in the forest with my AD hero and left only a little army visible. Trap worked, he cleared the wizard tower and next turn I attacked his stack with outnumbered forces. There was a shooting stars cosmic event active and we both had good morale with 15-25% luck chances, so the result was less predictable, but in the end outcome was really good for me. I counted 8 crits and 28/102 lucks in that battle.
Needless to say that after such huge win, I tried to end the game fast and so I went directly to the opponent's cities. Chasing his rest stack of units I wasn't afraid of ambush, because thanks to two artifacts I had 10 vision range with true sight on my AD hero. There was a naga vassal on the way, but for some reason he didn’t place any units there to force auto combat and so I captured it easily without any troubles. Two more turns later Lightform has surrendered without battles.
Cannons with flowrock machinery and modern warfare training? Maybe next time.
