Your first faction.

I started playing the fourth game in 200? and my first faction was Necropolis. Before that, I played the third game a little. During three unsuccessful attempts to capture a gold mine, I lost almost all my troops. I played with friends, and we were all playing for the first time. So, the game boiled down to exploring the map and looking at the sights. During this wandering for a couple of hours, the only computer player was defeated, after which the war ended. Well, but I still remember the Poisonous Horrors and Bone Dragons, and Cerberuses (although later I mostly used Undead).
