Ranger - "Higher Vampire" [5th Campaign, 5th Mission]

If you delay this mission, the Ghost Dragon units on the map will generate a lot of Dark Energy, and "The Great Night reaches its peak, and the undead can no longer be stopped," as stated in the script. So, you need to destroy them as quickly as possible. If you're late, the process becomes irreversible – every day, 666 Ghost Dragons will be added to Kolk's army.

Thank you very much! You're an expert! Did you find this in the code? And where is the description about the Great Night?

I don't know. I'm saving every turn. Every turn, Carl!!! In the end, I decided to act faster, and it didn't help... I took Phoenixes, killed three Dragon nests, which were all outside Nicholas's part of the map. And then, incredibly, Nicholas and Vlad catch up to me in three turns (points), even though I have absolutely maxed-out logistics. How is this even possible? Do they have super-logistics in addition to their super-speed?!

Has anyone completed this mission in version 1.6 on Veteran difficulty or higher? I'm currently playing on Veteran, and I think I've completed it before, but I don't remember having these problems. This is something:eek: Maybe patch 1.6 is to blame? Maybe they improved the creatures in 1.6 and didn't test anything? Did the developers even play through this themselves?

I've completed the entire game at least twice. The first time on Warrior difficulty (version 1.0), and the second time on Veteran (probably version 1.6), although I might have lowered the difficulty to Warrior in some places, I don't remember. And I completed it without using a forum and played much worse...

Can anyone provide the skills of Nicholas and Vlad?
