The most UNPOPULAR faction in Heroes 5.

Cheri@, it's not that difficult to earn points. First, focus on upgrading "Blood Memory" (without it, you'll suffer greater losses on the creep wave), and of course, try to build the structure that provides a rage bonus as early as possible. This partially solves the problem. Secondly, it's important to build and upgrade Centaurs in the first week. I only choose those that specialize in melee combat, because if they get into melee, they can definitely defend themselves. And personally, I actively use trappers. I divide them into 2-3 stacks and place traps on slow-moving neutral creatures. Even if they're not necessarily slow, it often helps. In this way, the creep wave is handled more or less successfully, and in the first week, you capture the wood and ore mines, and in the second week, the mercury mine. There are losses, but they are not significant in most cases.
