Walkthroughs for custom maps.

I continued the game and saw a problem. The enemies are too strong in this state (I still don't understand where the bonus of ten Azure Crystals comes from), which means we'll have to resort to guerrilla tactics. Our starting Castle is inaccessible to the enemy, so the survival issue is not insurmountable. The Horn of Plenty hints at the priority of buying 1 Azure Crystal per week. The main thing is not to let the main hero fall into the enemy's clutches. The task is to steal elemental spheres from each of the enemy territories, then take the captain's hat, while not forgetting to upgrade water magic, and then get the Badge of Courage on any of the 4 areas of the map. This is the main goal of the guerrilla tactics (not for nothing is the Badge of Courage depicted on the drawn miniature of the map exactly where it is depicted), although here a more important point is to get to and destroy the stone golem at point 58.69.0. The things in this case are interconnected. Something like that.

Judging by the word "sphinx," I suspect you are playing the WoG version? Then stop and start over, but in SoD. And if you also WoGified the map, then many things may have been replaced on it, which is not permissible on RPG maps. The same applies to the huge additional increase in creatures: it may be the "pranks" of WoG.
