Mupy-Mup!

my Mardakor strategy (or however I keep confusing it)
losses: 4 nymphs and one red ent. The red one simply didn't resurrect. I had to upgrade them once; the culprit of this whole mess went next, so I decided not to tempt fate, just in case he casts something nasty. We'll manage.
the idea was this:
I took a tactic to counter his tactic. What else does he have? Light and darkness, all area-of-effect spells.
the battle also took place during the Week of Renunciation, meaning we definitely need to dispel buffs in large numbers. He casts spells based on luck; in this playthrough, he cast Mass Slow right away, but I managed to destroy one unit of vamps. There were options that he wouldn't cast Mass Slow immediately, but instead things like Stone Skin or Confusion on us, etc. The latter is also unpleasant at the beginning, so I preferred Mass Slow. The main thing is to hold out in the Castle and then we'll deal with it.
Storm Wind to slow down the vampire dragons and ghosts.
of course, the Staff and Cloak of the Embrace of Death reduce speed and initiative; in Sanctuary, they give +1 initiative on Fridays.
extra troops – dragons, unicorns, dancers, and fairies – go into the mine. We lure the enemy into the desired locations with 4 individual nymph kamikazes, covering them from those who can fly in.
one can be placed directly at the gate, and the first dead horse will block the entrance to the Castle – then place another nymph there, then the Wall of Swords. During this time, we will have time to do everything we need – create a Phantom, speed it up, destroy his machines, etc.
and as usual, we sit back, smoke bamboo, and shoot at whoever flies in and messes around at the gate with the swords.
the ents cover the archers and druids in the corner. We place them at the other end and buy machines. Whoever flies over the fence will spend even more turns dealing with the machines.
something like that.
it's a pity that this is, they say, the last one, because Greta was just getting into the swing of things, building up her army.
I don't know about you, but I liked the Necropolis; at first glance, it seemed a bit creepy, but then everything was fine.
