faj, how are you playing?

It's the 2nd month, 4th week, 1st day. You only have one Castle so far.
By this time, you should have at least two Castles...
You are capturing territory very slowly.
I went down to the worm's lair at the beginning of the fourth month, after clearing everything, and I still thought I had wasted a lot of time searching for Crow Island and running around bonus buildings.

Close the portals; don't be stingy with crystals. You can buy them on the market at the end of the game when you have cleared everything.

My tactic on this map. I'm playing on Hard difficulty. Sandor, Warrior of the Fallen.
I give the Centaurs and Harpies to Airini, and all the rest to Sandor. I send them in different directions to capture everything they can handle, and it turns out that almost everything is within their capabilities. The main thing is to advance without losses, with minimal losses (5-10 Goblins, Crusher) after encountering enemy mages.
I quickly capture a second Castle (sometime in the beginning of the 3rd week). At the beginning of the second month, I capture a third.
Battle for Airini against a mage.
First turn: Earth Elementals (defend throughout the battle) to the enemy archers, and Centaurs and Harpies bombard the enemy.
For Sandor:
Reinforcements to the Jaguars, command to wait, Goblins and Cyclops bombard (if they are already available), Dreamcatchers cast Cloud (or something like "Heaven and Earth"), when the enemies retreat, the Jaguars rush into the crowd, trying to engage as many enemies as possible.
All battles with neutrals should be without losses.
Don't forget to use teleports to the Castle, from the Castle to the Castle, and from the Castle to the Fort.
