How interesting, how long did you sail there? ;) Mine:
1 day - landing
1 day - sailing
1 day - disembarking
1 day - everyone is doomed :)
I'll add, before that:
1 day - capturing the Fortress, buying a Sorcerer, capturing a gold mine
1 day - running to the gazebo
1 day - running to the spellcasting building + a chest for experience + landing (This day is the landing)
For this, I also had to finish building the magic portal at the Barbarians, and the Mages' Fortress remained without a magic portal, but I got lucky. :)
I should have analyzed the results of the first tournament in the First game. I paid attention to the glitches with building construction in the computer's Fortresses. This time, even if by chance, I figured it out. :) And yet, during the first playthrough, out of three Fortresses, magic was built only in two, and in the final one, I only had it in one, and I had to finish building it myself in one of the Fortresses. That's it.
