My Shocking Loss


This level, I really screwed it up. I had decided to finally be orc since I didn't like trying to win before anyone got Castle. That was my strategie when I was human so orcs wouldn't get bloodlust. I was orc this time so I could get bloodlust too. I started out doing fine. I was top left and he was top right. We both had walled in towns with barracks on outside. He had a cannon tower on other side of barracks so I couldn't attack him without sappers, dk, or a catupult. I decided to wait till I got sappers for my first attack. I started my first expansion right below my regular city. I walled that in too. I didn't know what he was doing now. I finally got a Stronghold, and I got 2 flying machines up. I explored his town and all he had for defense was walled in cannon tower. Oh man. This was gonna be easy. His peons almost chopped through bottem so I decided I would sapper through those trees. But as my flying machine was exploring, I saw an expansion to the very bottem right. It had walled in barracks with 2 cannon towers. I took 2 sappers and some ogres. He didn't have any ogres guarding so I took one sapper right between his 2 barracks. KABOOM. I started my second sapper and click right between the barracks again. He now had a guard towder working and that one second standing there killed my second sapper. I sent my ogres at the barracks trying to kill them so as to open a hole into the cannon towers. He had peons already repairing them! My ogres died quickly. The rest of the game I tried to get that expansion and worried about nothing else. I was driven mad I guess. I took some dk's and ogres. He had ogres himself and killed the 2 dk's before I could do anything. He kept doing this because I guess I didn't protect my dk's good. I started to really waste guys. After about 5-8 dk's, I only got one attack of death and decay on his towers which I don't think killed them. My first mine had blown up by now. My second was almost gone although I didn't know this then. I did one last attack with dk's and ogres and all my grunts. It failed as usual. My second mine blew but I didn't hear it. I was too busy trying to kill 1 freakin' outpost! I finally noticed it too late. I had 10 gold left and that's how I noticed it had blown. I decided to go bottem left mine. I had explored there but not recently. I sent all my peons there that were from my 1st expansion. He had his own expansion waiting there! His ogres there slaurghted all my peons but one and i took him and the rest to this mine just bottem of him. Eventually he killed those peons and I had to give up. Oh I had 1-4 peons at my first tonw but there was no way I could get enough gold froma distant mine without him killing my peons first and if I did, I would never hold a townhall up there. So I surrendered. I thought I had won a while there. But after I saw his second, I knew I was lost. His pointer he gave me after the game was to protect dk's and explore. I think it was his 2nd expansion that killed me. I thought he would die with no gold had I killed it. I was wrong. Too bad.
