Which faction is the most interesting to play as, and what strategy do you find most engaging?

I agree, it's very difficult to play as mages against Necropolis.

:smile34: But I think it depends on the size of the map and who is playing as Necropolis. If they quickly capture a castle and convert its inhabitants + recruit from neutral creatures, then everything is fine, but what if the mages are more aggressive?
I think that in the early stages, Necropolis is significantly weaker than other factions. (Here, almost any faction can defeat them, but later, they have fewer chances, not as many as mages, but fewer than everyone else.):smile13:
