Battle for the North
As we advanced north, winter arrived. Movement became more difficult, and time was running out. After building a Fortress, we began planning an attack. Since the snow hindered movement, I decided to summon the fastest warriors from my army to quickly reach our northern allies. But it turned out to be more complicated than I thought. In addition to the two enemy camps surrounding the allied Fortress, there was a third one. It was located to the south, to the left of our Fortress, so we had to send part of our troops there to prevent them from attacking first. By dividing our forces, I took a significant risk, as the army only had two healers (and for some reason, both of them were positioned at the front). This made the battle in the south particularly challenging. As you can see in the screenshot, only 7 people participated in the attack (a dwarf is behind them, but he didn't fit in the screenshot): two level 3 cavalry, a level 2 mage, an elf hero (level 2), a level 3 avenger, and an elf marshal (level 3), plus a dwarf with a rifle who didn't participate much in the battle. To avoid casualties, I sent reinforcements of two cavalry (they were level 1, I think) and another avenger, who distracted part of the enemy forces. As a result, we surrounded them.
At the same time, battles were also taking place in the forest to the north. We helped our ally repel the eastern orcs, and then I sent a dwarf, an archer, and a healer (all of them were story heroes) to the orc camp, and together they killed the leader (he managed to summon orcs, which caused some difficulties, but we still managed to cope, because my guys are strong). The rest of the army headed west. It mainly consisted of archers (4-5), a cavalry unit, a couple of warriors, and the Lord (the main character). In the end, not only this part of the army reached the last base, but also the troops from the south, which left the enemy with no chance (see screenshot).
The enemy is defeated, victory is ours!

After the battle, we returned home, but our adventure didn't end there... The invisibility potion that the mage gave us when we went to kill the orc leader began to have side effects. The old man warned us about them (evil begins to take over you, and you become bad, or maybe even turn into undead), but saving the people was more important than anything else. Fortunately, only I and my friend Landar (an elf archer) drank the potion. I feel that I am starting to change, but what about my friend? Perhaps the potion is affecting him more strongly... He was already too aggressive, warlike, and almost didn't trust other races, he disliked dwarves and others, and the effect of the potion seems to have amplified these qualities. Recently, a dwarf's corpse was found in our camp :O We started investigating who did it, but it ended in a conflict, and the dwarves left. Now, the two of us will have to attack the lizardmen and finish them off once and for all. (Yes, we haven't forgotten that they helped the orcs attack us; now it's time for revenge!!!)
