Tactics for the Stronghold.

I build Orcs to take Gnomish Mines and Crypts – and at the same time, some random hero shows up. (20 Orcs and a couple of Goblins). And the main hero walks around with Griffins and Ogres, giving them to some neutral creatures. And I end up with two fairly strong heroes who quickly explore the map and gather resources. And by the end of the second week, I've almost conquered the entire castle. And I don't have any money problems. :-) at 200% difficulty.
