I'd like to share my impressions of completing the first mission of the 566 AD - Day of Fiery Tears campaign.
My game ratings:
Plot: 10/10
Gameplay: 9.7/10
Design: 10/10
Originality: 9.9/10
Game atmosphere: 10/10
Quests: 9.8/10 (some are quite difficult)
Overall impression: 10 out of 10
The author (Ogo) did a great job and filled his scenarios with scripts, as well as came up with interesting tasks and situations during the playthrough. The work with scripts is truly immense. I also really liked some of the battles - almost on the edge, and it's necessary to minimize losses for future battles. The game is a masterpiece, difficult, interesting, and develops intelligence!
About the playthrough: as a bonus, it's better to choose stone spikes. Furthermore, since the main hero is a High Elf, I developed luck + defense + specialized skills (I didn't take logistics). I reached the first garrison in 12 days, while completing all the additional quests!
Attention: after taking soldier's luck + travel luck, I was given a useful skill: elven luck!
I finished the first mission at level 22!

Playthrough of the 2nd mission
I must admit, I didn't manage to complete the 2nd mission on the Hero difficulty level right away. It was not easy. Strong neutral creatures, some of which almost mowed down my troops, constantly stood in my way. Yes, there are about 3 ways to complete this mission, the author tried hard, but whatever option you choose, believe me - you will have to play extremely carefully, practically without mistakes.
I'll add that I only managed to complete this mission thanks to well-planned battles in tactical terms, without losses. But the most difficult was the last battle with the advanced elite squad of demons that blocked my hero's path. The demons refused to retreat (although according to the scenario, they were supposed to), and I had to accept a battle that was extremely unfavorable for me, but there were no other options! The battle was long - almost on the edge, and it took a lot of losses to win, but at what cost!!!! Less than 5% of the army remained!
Playthrough of the 3rd mission:
1. At the beginning of the mission, the hero has only 4 assassins, who must destroy 36 Ancient Ents (otherwise, it's impossible to proceed). Question to the author: what is the purpose of such an unreasonably high difficulty at the initial stage? It was very difficult to destroy them, and only after a large number of attempts.
2. Unjustifiably high difficulty in capturing the castle in one week (too large an army as a guard for the castle). I got stuck for a long time on the third mission. It is very difficult to complete it.
In general, the campaign is created for masters of Heroes, because warriors have nothing to do in it (at least in the third mission).
