I read the thread and decided to try playing a solo map myself. I chose the simplest map, Lord of The Rings 3.0 by Vallex.

At the beginning, 3 heroes are available: Frodo, Gandalf, and Isildur. Isildur is a powerful hero with good artifacts. But he is killed by an enemy hero on the very first day, as the plot dictates. As suggested in the thread, I decided to dismiss him so that the artifacts wouldn't fall into the enemy's hands, and maybe buy him back in the future.
I continue playing. Gandalf, now powerful, returns from Valinor. Frodo is celebrating Bilbo's birthday in the village. About 3 weeks pass. A message appears saying that I need to leave the village. But the passage is blocked by green gates. Where is the tent? I searched everywhere, but it's nowhere to be found.
It turns out that Isildur, whom I dismissed, was supposed to activate the green tent. I messed up the playthrough. Do I have to start over? Another 3 weeks of tedious battles with golems and dwarves? I'm not sure I can handle it. With my level of attention, these maps are clearly not for me. I admire your patience.

The map you started is not considered too difficult. If you don't have experience playing maps created with the editor, or similar maps, then replaying the map is unlikely to bring you enjoyment. Either you need to work with the map editor to plan your actions for at least 1-2 weeks, or you will have to periodically encounter such problems. Alternatively, choose simpler maps.
