It was a bit challenging with the difficult and slow roads. But I managed to gain an advantage through good luck with artifacts, acquired several Necropolises and Fortresses, and was preparing to attack the bird creatures when my opponent arrived and defeated my hero. I wasn't upset; I attacked his heroes, bought a Toad through the tavern, and defeated Adel and two other heroes. My opponent couldn't handle it and surrendered.
Thank you for the game!
