I'll try to finish it in 7 weeks.
I think I could shave off another week from the result if, after the second Hero with the main forces reaches the top, I don't send him to follow the first Hero for support (because the main Hero is capable of handling most cities and outposts with a couple of dozen ranged units), but instead send him in the opposite direction, i.e., through another coastal outpost (the Dwarf one).
I have very good impressions of the map - excellent design and good layout, so a huge thank you to its author.
(The only thing that was tiring was the long sailing, because the loot you can get in naval battles is no longer that interesting - there's already an abundance of money and other resources, and spending five days just conquering territory is tedious).
I will definitely play it as the Demons and the Orcs when I have time (it's a pity you can't play as the Light Elves).
