Abdication

Markel turned out to be very powerful - 111 dragons, 197 towers, 408 liches, 981 vampires, 1635 ghosts, 3084 zombies, 4206 skeletons. I miscalculated when switching to the Dungeon faction; I should have switched to the Mentor faction and replaced the imps, succubi, and devils in the guild fort. He has 2 magic items, all the Dungeon creatures, and all my artifacts, including the staff. The Sandro's Cloak is not equipped - vampirism removes its control effect. I'll replay from the beginning of the second part; it's difficult, but possible - there's a Sanctuary available. By the way, you can gain experience through battles in the passage - I had Necropolis units fight several battles (I went to fight dragons and the Temple before the quest, then a second time, but they didn't let me in the second time). Sigrif is missing 1 skill point; maybe it's worth having 2-3 extra battles. And Sigrif doesn't have Wave of Fire and Devil's Chain. And why does Devil's Strike suddenly not transfer through the Scholar??? In the Sigrif3 campaign, I found it in the guild.
