It's just that although initially all participants are on equal footing, after the map is generated, it's a matter of luck.
You could say this is a tournament of skeleton gathering and player luck! :)
Yeah right, all on equal footing:) . Someone will sit around all day until they generate all the Necromancer castles on the map, as well as the Cloak of the Undead King and much, much more, wait until month 7 and then do a routine map sweep, and in the last days the joined army will descend on the skeleton transformer...
So these so-called equal conditions are not for me, IMHO.
Whoever has more time wins, good luck...
This is exactly what I don't like about Heroes 3! I built up a decent army over 3 months, and then some jerk shows up with super-strong creatures — just 5 hydras, 7 ancient beasts, 5 efreet, 1 RUST and 2 CRYSTAL dragons wiped out half my army! After something like that, it's disgusting to keep playing!
Advice: Generate yourself a Book of Air Magic, or take generated Angel Wings, generated Cloak of the Undead King, and take out the computer by the first week at the latest, then wait until mid-month 7...
