I don't know if it's even possible to capture a single dwelling – if it is, then only in the first week. I tried on the 4th day, and demons kicked me out, I almost caught up to the fast unit and gave it a good beating.
However, this time I prepared a little better.
A 23rd-level Mage Mentor and a 24th-level General, with reasonably decent artifacts – https://c2n.me/48fKQTP
I couldn't quite max out the battle to the last, it's a difficult skill for a Knight, but https://c2n.me/48fKRrQ – we'll break through.
The army is a little better –
366 upgraded Peasants
152 upgraded Archers
42 Blue Archers
91 Obsidian Gargoyles (they are a bit over-leveled)
281 Gremlin Saboteurs
19 Djinn Sultans
89 Men-at-Arms
And 12 unredeemed Dark Knights, who can be sacrificed for 2 resources. I think it's playable, I'm going to go on a raid with the single units now, the machine will shoot down some demons.
I didn't receive reinforcements, even though I held the inner garrisons at the time of the messages – apparently, there's a 1 in 5 chance that they'll make it through the outer gates.
I fought them off https://c2n.me/48fMJtx and got the armor of the Forgotten Hero. I wonder how much time is left until the next attack.
I defeated the second guest as well, he's quite overpowered. Luckily, there was a general slowdown. The outcome of the battle https://c2n.me/48fSK6k. The artifacts were these https://c2n.me/48fSMXq. This is after I managed to make one sortie and destroy all his Liches and some of the others with 14 Gargoyles. In general, I managed to send the Mage into the zone with the yellow demons and capture two outposts, grab the Knight's hat, and give it to whoever needed it for defense – Grok disappeared somewhere, and Nibros appeared in his place with an army of Phoenixes and Elementals. He shot down a lot of my Archers and almost all of the Djinns, but there aren't enough slots for troops, so I sent the Djinns back to the Mage's Castle. Now I need to capture two Elven Archers while I have time, they shoot well despite their small numbers. BDP still helped, and it still made sense to make the General the main one – 3 sorties against the first demon left him with only a group of Succubi, and one sortie against the Necromancer left him without Liches. If I hadn't messed up, I could have made one more sortie against the Necromancer and reduced his forces even further.
