Oh, thank you, there's not even a password needed, that's great.

I want to ask our experts about playing against the AI without scouting.
The same Hot Spot, of course, on King difficulty, any Castle, because I haven't been able to complete it even remotely successfully with any Castle. It takes about 30 days, but I'd like to finish it in, say, 15.
Let's assume that we don't know at all what monsters will hinder us, we only know about Hydras and Phoenixes. What general tactics can be used, and for the first week? Should we try to eliminate the Phoenixes on day 6, and take the other two Castles later? Or should we try to capture the upper Castle as quickly as possible?
Of course, I understand that it's all described in that amazing walkthrough, but for some reason, these weakly-armed chains with capturing an empty Castle don't work for me. Besides, for example, I had about 25 Water Elementals or 30 Fire Elementals twice, and that's quite problematic for a regular hero. And after eliminating such powerful neutrals with heavy losses, the AI hero immediately destroyed all thoughts of an easy victory. And the weakest opponent without any bonuses caused me the most trouble. I also don't want to use cheat codes.
