We chose exotic Castles for a new experience. And we enjoyed it! Playing as a Barbarian turned out to be not that difficult, much easier than I expected. Two things significantly eased my game: two Berserker dwellings and a healing wand near the gem mine.

With the Berserkers, I easily got the gloves on day 3, took 2 Castles, and without any problems freed both Lords.
From the start, I developed the Barbarian, Ranger, and Tactician. In the tavern, I bought a Priest, and in the second Castle, I also made the purchased Barbarian learn Life magic. In general, I planned to bring Bears and Stonekin with the Tactician, two Paladins, an Assassin, and a Ranger to the final battle.

To clear the mines and the altar of magic on the way to the Bear dwelling, I didn't dare go with 5 heroes and took monsters with me. By the time I returned to the Castle, I had almost finished upgrading two more Barbarians. Meeting them near the bridge guard to the 3rd Castle, I left my monsters and, with 7 heroes, made my first hit-and-run. After killing almost half of the Bears and Grunters, I fled to the second Castle and, the second time, with 5 heroes and monsters, I finished off the losers.

I immediately dismissed the idea of taking the third Castle because I couldn't figure out how to stop the Stonekin and Birds, and my Barbarian couldn't get GM Melee and GM Resistance. After clearing the southern territory of the 3rd Castle, I finally managed to get GM Melee and Resistance. After teaching the Tactician, Ranger, and Barbarian the advanced skills of Death, I finally decided to attack the 3rd Castle with 7 heroes. It turned out to be quite easy, and I headed north to clear it.

I spent almost the entire journey with my Stonekin and Bears, so the events unfolded slowly. Without collecting anything valuable from the artifacts, I went to the trees of knowledge, where I maxed out my guys to GM Life, GM Life, 5555 Warfare, 5555 Tactics, and Ranger 5145.

On the way, I picked up an army from the 1st and 2nd Castles and ran to the altar near the 3rd Castle, where I managed to learn Resurrection. In the 3rd Castle, I took the Hand of God and, with trembling knees, moved towards the guard.

Only in the battle itself did I realize what 21 Cyclops and 13 Bears against the AI computer meant. In the first battle, I only used General's Amulet of Order, Songs of Peace, and Bless. In the second battle, I had to cast Resurrection twice more.

The Lord was waiting for me in the Castle. As always, with a beer.

Barbarian is awesome.

Thanks for the game :)
