Completed the map in 395 days.
After defeating an Elven Scout with Raileg, I decided to try to reach the Dwarf castle. The path to this castle was blocked by several groups of Lava Dragons, each consisting of several tens of thousands. I defeated all the dragon groups. At the same time, I leveled up Raileg to level 39. I entered the Dwarf city with Raileg and learned "City Portal". Using the portal, I sent Raileg to the Dungeon. I divided Raileg's army with Sigrif. And easily defeated all the enemies.
Without Raileg's army, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to cope. Perhaps I should have gone to the Dungeon earlier. But I don't even know how I could have done that. Sigrif moved very well for me. Skilled Logistics + Find Path + Path of War + Boots of Travel. And I never ignored the stables.
The computer handled the map well (Windows 7 32-bit, dual-core Athlon). Occasionally, it crashed when loading saves.
I'm surprised how you managed to defeat the Scout - in the previous version, the computer clearly glitched in his favor during the battle - despite roughly equal skills, the Scout's much smaller group wiped out any of my stacks with a single blow...
With the most optimal logistics, the surface can be traversed in 10.5 - 11 months. So, everything is already ready at the bottom, only Time Magic with a leveled-up resistance to enemy spells can help.
