What will be the difference between "Isra and Vidomina attacking heroes, towns, and mines with a garrison of the opponent using expert-level magic" and "Isra and Vidomina attacking heroes, towns, and mines with a garrison of the opponent using non-expert-level magic"?

When it comes to neutral creatures, everything is clear, and you can even dismiss all the skeletons raised with their help. But why here? Sometimes, even these Isra and Vidomina will be at the end of the chain (or released from prison - and it doesn't matter which hero is in prison, even if it's Kraagor - the mere presence of a hero is what matters), and you need to use them to capture something or attack. But it turns out that in some situations, I will be simply restricted by the rules, even though I can attack the opponent and win. In my opinion, it's some kind of nonsense...

The difference lies in the number of skeletons raised with different levels of magic. Essentially, when this rule was introduced, it completely prohibited these two heroes from using Necromancy to avoid cheating, which is very, very difficult to check. With expert-level magic, she will raise more skeletons.

Imagine a situation where, for example, it's the 4th week, your main hero is Galtron, and Isra and Vidomina are also in the chain, and maybe even a couple more Necromancers. The game itself ends somewhere around 222. During some confusing and complex turns, you can cheat by not deleting skeletons or deleting fewer of them. Imagine you have hidden peasants, converters, a bunch of different castles, and a lot of resources for skeletons, many battles on the move, etc. It will be extremely difficult to track the Necromancer, and it turns out that you have to track all the moves when Isra and Vidomina appear with someone.

You are already restricted by the rules: you can't create 2 damage dealers, use scrolls without a Grand Master, and you can continue indefinitely.
