Tactics for Necropolis.

I have another question for the esteemed experts. How can you survive on an XL map with an underground against Necropolis? Please don't suggest playing as Necromancers.

P.S. The opponent also knows about Dragon Utopias, Magic Books, Wings, etc.

Or better yet, take a diplomat right away, because who knows when Kiru will offer diplomacy, anything can happen... (if it's elves, then it's Roland, if it's humans, then it's Adela, if it's a Tower, then it's Saira, but it's better to choose elves, the castle is one of the strongest in Sode + Roland has the Leadership skill, which is very useful for a diplomat) And that's it, you'll have many times more troops and resources than the Necromancer, no matter how actively he gathers skeletons (but don't drag out the game for too long, as you will mainly be joined by units of different factions, while your opponent will gather a force of several thousand skeletons).
