There are even enough free cells for 8 heroes so that the AI doesn't deploy its troops.
It seems to be true. We hide behind the Castle, summoning a boat for it beforehand, and wait for it to sail away. Then we take the Castle, buy 7 heroes, and block the landing with burrows or heroes. Then, when it reveals the entire map, we put 1 hero in a boat and make sure the AI kills it by getting as close as possible to the shore. Then, we use a trickster to blow it up.
That's all correct! The trickster option is for those who want to complete it as quickly as possible. You can simply sink its boat when it lands, and it will wait forever. Well, that's obvious.
I didn't read every sentence from the Chinese players, but it seems they didn't suggest any options to block it, which is a bit strange. I was led to this option by the first comments in this thread, regarding the map.
From this feature, by the way, comes an option with a tent. Or rather, a theory. Because I haven't tried it yet =) Perhaps it will sail to the city and take a tent from another hero from the Rampart. You can create a bait - stand with your hero at the gates of the Rampart and wait for it. Or the Rampart hero will summon a ship, an exchange will occur, and it will get a tent. Summoning a ship is among the possible options in the Rampart guild.
But I'm not sure if all this is possible with this arrangement of the Rampart (on the edge of the water). But in any case, when we stand with our hero next to the Rampart, the hero from the Rampart can attack us.
This map seems to be designed so that you spend about four months building up your army and then, with heavy losses, defeat the enemy's armada. So, does it make sense to edit it for a faster playthrough?
The map can be completed in about 3 minutes (if you consider completing it to be killing the hero).
In general, there is only one option in two versions. I'll wait and won't post video spoilers yet; I'll do it tomorrow. Perhaps someone else will join, as not much time has passed =)
