I always start with a hero; it's more interesting to play that way.
I've already taken out the 3rd green Castle. The Knights promised to arrive soon (it's the 3rd week of the 2nd month) – I wonder what they'll bring. I'm planning to merge their troops with mine and switch to them. I just need to find some gold for upgrades.
It's a pity – I made Sigrif my main hero; he has 8 attack and 6 defense at level 22. I freed Rielag, who has 17 and 21 respectively. If only he had Logistics... =))
I haven't seen the Turquoise player yet; I'm starting to worry about him... I hope that jerk doesn't create 300 vampires. =))

Oh, well. I found a mentor. =)) Now I just need to finish off the green player, meet the Knights, and I can make Rielag my main hero.))))

Increasing the difficulty level doesn't affect the size of the incoming army of humans or the hero's stats.
This army is kind of pathetic; the losses are about a dozen units due to the hero's lightning spells.

Another thing. There's a great artifact lying around, but I can't pick it up. Is that intentional?

How do I remove the magic barrier so I can kill Faidaen? It's already the 3rd month...
I've taken out 3 green Castles... another green player arrived, and I took him out too. How do I force him to surrender?
I've also wanted to increase the difficulty level of the incoming forces for a long time. I just haven't had time to make global changes; I'm working on a new map.
Maybe at least Faidaen will be a bit more challenging.
Regarding the barrier, you need to complete quests for the Prophet; he'll give you a ring, which the hero can use to teleport behind the gates by approaching them closely. The ring must be equipped
