I understand – online maps are more balanced. In RPGs, especially those made by amateurs, there are sometimes significant flaws. Or the game is just a product of the creator's wild imagination. In the third game, for example, when you don't have a starting hero, on the 3rd day, the enemy is already near the city, but you can only accumulate enough money for a hero on the 5th day... I don't know yet what other flaws are found in the fourth game. In the third game, speed is often more important than strength. And here, sometimes there is a significant slowdown in development. By the way, in terms of army building, the Necropolis is the fastest and cheapest, but I only use them for variety, and in general, I prefer to pay attention to all factions.
I think the game also depends on your mood – sometimes it goes easily and without problems, and sometimes it doesn't.

By the way, here's a recent example (I started the game before writing this post, but I put it aside – I got tired of carrying the tomb to Sanctuary). A Marksman of level 14, all three combat skills maxed out, and the only valuable artifact is the Soul Eater. In the walkthrough, there are 61 Crusaders, 39 Archers, and 52 Squires. I tried 2 or 3 times – they killed me, and even the Potion of Healing didn't help (I had only one). Apparently, the Crusaders' morale was dropping – half of them were still left. And carrying the tomb is a long way, even on a small map, it takes about 3 days (the hero is broke). I changed my tactics – I drank a Potion of Strength and, for the last time, didn't shoot, but went into melee combat – I killed everyone, and I didn't even need the Potion of Healing. And in general, I completed the entire small map without an army (I sometimes took a Fairy), although in the captured cities, I also built an army of all levels – it was quite impressive. I spent 6 weeks, and in the first 2 weeks, I only did one thing: carried the broke hero's tomb to Sanctuary (although he had a starting level of 5, but no defense could save him from 14 Crusaders or 32 Monks).
And in general, guys, thanks for the moral support. By the way, I was a little surprised – for this playthrough, the AI gave me 994 points (Mega Dragon). For what? – the map is clearly weaker (at least 100 points less) and there are many easy ways to level up.
