Confirmed! I didn't set the right goals for myself.

Week 1
I notice 2 Archer and Spearman dwellings, 2 Monasteries. I decide to make Valeska my main hero. I gather gold and resources. I capture a secondary Rampart Castle by defeating the computer. There's a thieves' den nearby, so I notice that my opponent took Necropolis and is building Dark Knights. I build a hippodrome in the castle without any problems. I count 5 Conservatories on the map and decide to take them next week.

Week 2
I buy all the archers and take the conservatories, one after another. In the end, I have 6 Angels (from 4). I gather money/resources. I take the Treasury, break through the dungeon (Inferno) guard with scouts. I break through the prison guard; there's a level 10 Sorceress, but the secondary skills aren't very good, so I use her as a secondary hero.

Week 3
I move towards the Guardian Order. Thanks to the thieves' den, I notice Gunnar with good stats. The Guardian Order (unfortunately) turned out to be 20+ Devils (my opponent has Unicorns). I thought that I could go around to my opponent's Guardian Order (it didn't work), so I lost a couple of days. Gunnar breaks through the Guardian Order and collects everything there. I attack the Guardian Order (with almost no mana) and break through with heavy losses:
"...The Devils blocked our path. I rushed into the attack, but I didn't expect these monsters to appear so quickly. Their sharp scythes were terrifying. The Angels suffered the most - the Devils focused their attention on them. They all fell, but thanks to their selflessness, we managed to shoot down the hellish creatures and pass through..."
Unfortunately, I lost all the Angels, many Swordsmen, Champions, and Spearmen. I started to realize that I had lost. Gunnar attacks me and easily wins (he had a cloak of speed and earth magic).

Thanks for the game!:smile20:
