version 1.3.0, difficulty - I decided to start with Warrior.
In the first week, the AI repelled both garrisons, then a long tactical war began, because I thought that it could only attack the city by passing through its central garrison, near which it was constantly located. Well, then I made a clever move and locked the commander in the center, thereby gaining time, then I captured the center and all the towers + visited 3 out of 4 artifact locations. I decided to end the game, because it turned out that the AI was already on the verge of defeat, but it ran into an impassable wall.
Then I wanted to capture my outposts (those that were mine at the beginning of the game), but I ran into a Cloud-Swarm. After that, it turned into Legions. And this is only the end of the second month of the game. I know, probably, the problem is that I played too much, now the troops in the outpost grow by 300% per week (from 8 to 24 thousand immediately).
And I can imagine what the army in the center looks like, based on my own outpost; soon there will be millions there.
But overall, the map is great.
