Hello comrades, I completed this mission on Veteran difficulty... The secret is simple: take a Warlock as your hero and choose the corresponding faction. In the beginning, build only magic structures and focus on upgrading magic skills (Chaos). Therefore, the most suitable hero is Sinithar... and recruit everything you can in the beginning... In the first week, I had 3 heroes... I moved everything to Sinithar... Also: mobility, mobility, and more mobility... As proof, I'm attaching a save file. Profile: Komrad. Load it, and you'll be on the final stage (2 battles). Thank you to the author – it's an interesting map... Significantly complicating the game by banning Astral Gates (but don't forget to unlock one of the castles)... Oops, I can't upload the save file – neither in zip nor in sav format – the size limit is exceeded... (in zip 7,936 kb) :smile14:
