I thought I wouldn't be able to pull it off. The treasury guards were generated at their maximum, I even sent a save to the judge, thinking the template was bugged. 50+ monks, 20+ scorpios, 10+ bears. The last group seemed the weakest – I attacked. There were 11 of them with upgraded stats, and they almost wiped me out twice at the beginning – I barely managed to escape. And their morale kept haunting me throughout the early game. What saved me was having enough potions; I summoned enough angels, took a few decent mermaids, but the problem with the main hero remained relevant until the end of the game. Even when good fighters joined, their level was low :smile18:. Luckily, my opponent turned out to be even less mobile, and after I took the castle with archers, he surrendered.
