All roads lead to Rome.

I played through a map as the Orcs. The Italy feature is interesting. But for some reason, the AI hero turned out to be very weak. All battles were in auto-battle mode, enemy towns weren't built, and by month 3, no one had come to attack me. With the Necromancer, I used the starting hero, Markel – I thought I'd be in trouble, considering his specialization, and I imagined his MEGA undead army. But no – either there weren't many undead on the map, or something else, so I also won practically without losses in auto-battle. The result: it was a bit boring.
