Hello!
Great map, I haven't sweated this much in a long time, especially in the second month, when the orcs started attacking with a 5-week-old army of 3 each week. So many nerves were frayed, and so many heroes were killed in the remote corners of this map, but... in the end, I managed.

In general, I tried to play it about 6 times, 4 times on the old version, it didn't work, 2 times on the new version, I gave up. Veteran, completed it in 11 months XD

In the first month, I sat around, gathered an army, thinking that the orcs would slowly die out, I killed the weak ones, and hid from the strong ones behind a wall. It's strange that in Remix, they stormed the city, they never tried it on me. In the first month, I bought a unicorn bow in the store, and the whole tactic was based on it, I just shot them down, and those who got close - berserk. I think you can't do anything on this map without Dark magic. Chaos absolutely won't help with this many mobs, the summoning is too twisted, and the bees don't work on black dragons).

P.S. There was a bug with the orc heroes, there were 4 heroes, 1-2 in the early stages, when the groover was in the city, they ran away and got stuck on a skeleton, from which you can get a wand on the first day. I don't know why.

For 5-6 months, I ran around and fought with the orcs, in the end, I defeated them, but my elves from the basement never started to rise, which is strange. It seems that for other people, they went up.

Throughout the game, there were basically two difficult battles: the first with an elf who had a set of dragons. Because of my slowness, I reached him when there were almost 300 dragons with magic immunity :smile07: With 4 attempts, I defended the city through a wall of swords, there is a dynamic in three screenshots. It was interesting. I killed Letosa on the first try, only the poison was a little stressful, then I killed him during the city siege, I just put out golems and gargoyles, his terrible army stood behind the wall, defended itself and killed each other in berserk. And he also buffed obsidian golems with frost nova :D

I killed Harold easily, he needs to get artifacts for his monsters, otherwise, I have artifacts for initiative + a ring of speed = even the golems had 18 initiative.

The second difficult battle was with the bishop's champion, and that was because the battle was in the field, and the paladins and angels managed to attack before I could cast spells.

The final was easy, again, Dark magic solved everything without options. If there was no Dark magic, I would still kill Glen, but I definitely wouldn't kill the bishop, there are too many insane stats, and I wouldn't be able to level up a mage into a warrior.
And the stats in the last screenshot, with which I finished. I liked it, I'm waiting for the next map from the author. GL! :smile12:

P.P.S. In general, I would try this scenario for humans or dwarves, just to have a good fight against the orcs:D


Thank you for such a review :) . I will do something with Harold. I can't give him artifacts with a script (I mean mage artifacts), so I will give him bonuses to creature health, initiative, and defense.

One of the early saves. I already bought the orc.

Strange... I didn't see anything in the console. I'll have to add a check for heroes, cities, etc.
