Great report - well done (;

of course the units in auto combat were doing whatever they wanted - there was a wall, wooden

the AI cast fireball on the door and had some teleport + web and some fly-ing animals in - the battle was lost due to those nasty goblin pikemen.

Ilaanor had some good timing and i was too cheap to break my 1000gold happiness bonus to get roads
i was getting in relaxed mode - making plans to just slowly cross the map with 5-6 converters, getting every possible t3 unit on the way and park them next to his towns (: 
so glad it didn't happen as my advice for Ilaanor on how to play AD was: get every farm, cross the map with some evolves and summon whatever you can on the way

Interested to know how did the Evangelists behave in the final battle? Was there a wall? The 2 armies seemed more or less of equal size, but IIaanor had more units, and the Butchers can be quite nasty I assume.

POV
Restart of mine and xlnt's game with same set up as last one. Good game with nice learning curve for me again. I did good in tactical combats, not losing units but sometimes played maybe too much safely. Chose two warlord as a heroes, one goblin, one orc. Xlnt was harrasing me a lot with his Cherubs, I lacked proper scouts for a long time. Split my units into two armies, one clearing the NW corner and second SW to help set up cities. Probably wasnt good movement as it cost me a time in closing on xlnt and he could clear the middle of the map eventually.
Finally got the armies near each other around turn 23, start moving to east to confront xlnt. After some movement was able to set up a attack on his positions, capturing 2 cities adn his throne in one turn. From then it was battle of positioning with me waiting for my second army. Was able to got another level on the way and took Blood brothers. After few turns, I was able to gather the armies and finally went for the final attack. And won it.
Thanks to xlnt for the game, saving my leader 2 turns before the end and giving me a lot of tips.

Pros:
- finally got a win
- improvements in tactical combat and city developing
- got better in evolving

Cons:
- need work on scouting
- need better strategic movement
- and also better empire management <smiletext0>
- and probably need to have the armies closer together


Had luck with some thing, not so much with other..but that's how it is. <smiletext0>

Will add some pictures.
