Interestingly, in my Necropolis campaign, only mages seem to work well. Is there a dependency of attackers on the player's race?

The new version is easier, though. My Necromancer, almost level 18, has 26 Liches, 68 Vampires, 119 Ghosts, 369 Rotting Zombies, and 240 Skeletons, plus a bunch of troops available for hire (though I'm short on gold). He already defeated one opponent with overall slowing and weakening effects. And now he's defeated a second one https://c2n.me/458aILA, and they are quite strong.

Not just strong, but really tough. He defeated two mages, then a Knight appeared and is now running around in the desert, so he's still alive. He also defeated a Dark Elf with his huge attack, and even without any losses – a yellow Knight Axel remains on the map. Then a Ranger appeared.

Soon, a Barbarian followed the Ranger, and that's really scary. With this https://c2n.me/458fuoz, https://c2n.me/458fvpd, and https://c2n.me/458fw7t, it's impossible to win against the Barbarian. I didn't get lucky with the spells; I had Blind and Unholy Word, but I didn't think to take control of the Vampire. Attacking the Barbarian in an open field resulted in my defeat. :(

However, there's a chance to defend by staying in the castle, and there's also a high probability that the AI will get tired of attacking.
And where did you see which creatures being produced? In my case, only Zombies are being produced, and there was also an outpost, but I can't get to it now, and I don't have the money to buy production. Even in the castle, it's scary to defend against this - https://c2n.me/458fzx4.


In short, I abandoned that game because it's impossible to play as the Necropolis. I replayed many battles against the Barbarians, but I only won when defending the castle, either by losing 60 Liches, 300 Ghosts, and 600 Skeletons, or by almost being completely defeated. And this is the only hero; the next ones are even stronger. The Barbarian there is just a regular one.

I started a new game with the overpowered Elves and a Fae - the first time, I was unlucky, and an even stronger Elf appeared. I started again, and this time I managed to defend, then there was a difficult battle with a Necromancer who uses the "Control" skill, where I had light magic, but no "Remove Curse" or "Antimagic" (and the Fae only managed to remove curses on the 5th try) - but after that, everything went smoothly; all the battles were difficult, but with small losses. This is only because of the Dancers with Vampirism and Ghostlyness, and the Fae and Archers with Initiative and Health. I have no idea if anyone can complete the game as the Necropolis, where every battle will halve your army
