Two dwellings of level 2 and two dwellings of level 4 + Narhiz at the start.
I tried to surround myself with as many mages as possible, hoping to level up Narhiz, but on the second day, a blue-skinned lady appeared, and it was hard to refuse her becoming my main hero. On level 13, I found a lair in a hut, and that's when things started to escalate... At the end of the first month, I finally found a portal to my opponent's castle. Instead of recruiting more troops from my castle, I decided to attack with mages and gremlins, relying on my hero's abilities. In the lair, I almost didn't reach the opponent's castle, but it turned out that the opponent was far from his castle, and this was my chance. Also, the week was quite lucky for me (without luck and BD), so I settled in an Orcish castle, bought meat, and managed to defend myself against the onslaught of the bloodthirsty horde using magic.
Thank you for the game!
