The most comfortable and uncomfortable opponents for the Stronghold.

Why specifically Mages? In terms of initiative, Inferno is dominant and is considered the easiest opponent. Besides, the horses have an aura of fear, which will disrupt the Orcs' morale. Also, the succubus attacks in a chain, and the temptress promises sweet dreams to free Cyclops in exchange for them swinging their clubs at the entire army. And the Orc doesn't even have a way to counter this (or I don't know if it can be countered at all, but it seems like it should). Plus, there are curses, including berserk and mind control. And again, there's nothing to counter them with. And there's the ballista, if you're a weakened Deleb. And there's the Soul Eater, which will create competition and make it harder for the Orcs to regenerate health. Plus, mana drain, which won't allow the already not-so-magical Warboss to cast spells. So all these posts like

are baseless nonsense.
Don't think that I'm defending the Castle, which I have as my status, I just thought about it carefully and realized that Demons can easily defeat Orcs.

Oh yes, and of course, the gate, which increases your army by one and a half times. Of course, the Orcs can gain blood from them, but they can also lose it on them, right? And not only blood, but also troops. And Inferno won't lose. It's still a freebie. -.-

Hmm, I just looked and realized that some of these arguments were listed by Comrade Major, well, whatever, the stronger these statements will be. Besides, I added something new. -.-
