Yes, that's exactly how it happened:( .

Beer and Heroes apparently don't mix:D. I was playing haphazardly...

111. 4 heroes, including Gervulf with a ballista; at the exit from the castle, up to 50 of my own archers are blocked - well, Valya with 3 stacks + built structures = 29 marksmen - and the blockade dissolved on its own, which I didn't object to;) , but on one of the roads, the archers block again, even upgraded at that - I run along the remaining path, painting a guardhouse along the way.
112. +2 heroes; secondary swamp (and flies were already there with Gervulfych:) , so speed is fine), a hive spotted there.
113. +1 hero and an artifact for sword growth captured.
114. overview with a view of the grassy treasure zone.
115. my key mistake: Gervulf got Logistics on the 2nd level-up, but I preferred to keep leveling Valka, who had already managed to get Water Magic (it was a supposedly thought-out strategy - behind the hill I could see the edge of an Orb resembling the Orb of Water:cool: :D :smile52:), and she was only level 4.
116. 30 imps in a stack, and a nearby identical one simply ignored for now, since under the influence of beer I managed to sacrifice my own marksmen first:mad:, and before that I was also breaking through orcs - only 23 remained (inadequately assessing the situation, I decided not to push yet:rolleyes: )... but a mega external dwelling was taken - GNOLLS:smile08: :D :D :D!
117. horses in the Citadel, flies with a thousand in the swamp.

121. from the overview, I spot a bunch of crypts, a box behind iron golems, the guard of that very Orb (over a hundred white dwarves), and an external dwelling of archers - but all of this is in the middle of nowhere, and I really want to go there:rolleyes: ...
122. 8th hero and finally the path to the stable is opened, but I never used it properly until the end of the game - just sped up a few horses running around in that area, but I didn't upgrade the horses or send the main hero there, in short I'm a moron (well, it was inconveniently placed:confused: ...).
123-126. long run through the rough terrain of the starting respawn, 3 crypts (interestingly, all 3 on 5 cloth artifacts), 1 of those Griffin Conservatories that Valentin wrote about was revealed, and if I had looked closely, I could have even distinguished the Boots behind the blue fairies, but they were barely protruding from the darkness at the edges...
127. a rather eventful day - without a Spellbook, and also without horses and other heavy stuff, the Orb was taken (which turned out to be of Air, not Water - my eye is not yet trained:( , wasted getting Water Magic for Valyusha:mad: ) and a chest for 10000 experience - level 12, but stats of just 6-7-3-3 and no Earth Magic, Air Magic, Logistics, Offense, Tactics - in short, a useless level-up:( :smile15:; Wyverns with a magistrate in the swamp, Monks recruited at home in the castle (I could have safely built Angels, but decided to save the gold - almost 10000 left at the end of the day).

The entire 3rd week, Valka, instead of splitting up like normal main heroes do, hoofs it across the entire respawn (this is called greed:smile08: ) and as a result, the pace isn't just lost - it's flushed down the toilet:D . The Griffin Conservatories were ignored (I have some kind of conservatory-phobia: I don't like losing troops...:o ) and besides, I would have had to take them with low-tier units due to their scattered placement - which I'm not yet ready for:rolleyes:. In short: this week can be safely crossed out.

On the 4th, I managed to take - finally my tree in the swamp:D and stuck my nose into the treasure zone, where I only managed to shake another tree. Then Gurni with unreal stats broke through the GO and I simply exited the game without waiting for the capture of the capital and the "finale" - i.e., the beating. In the entire game, I didn't find a single stat artifact:mad: !..

Thank you for the game! I probably misunderstood something in this game (in "Heroes 3") - and I'll never learn to play even decently:( .

P.S. KostyaN warns: drinking beer during the game is harmful to the result!:D
