First of all, the Author deserves respect for their efforts and promptness.

I enjoy playing as the Human Castle, so I have no doubt that starting from there on this map will be "fun." If I were playing this map for speed, I would choose Humans. But I was interested in seeing what it's like to start from the weakest position. This is an opportunity to discover something interesting for myself. Again, the map author should always be interested in perspectives from different positions. People have already commented on Elves (and will comment again), and I think people will soon comment on Humans.

I started playing as Humans. Of course, I didn't develop as quickly as with Elves. I didn't have much luck with mine protection, so I initially had resource problems. But I hired Ellaine, and the problems solved themselves. I transferred all the peasants to this hero, as a result of which I could calmly build up cities, exchange resources, and buy an army. If you play against the AI, then only the Elf is a potential opponent. The Dwarves are annoying. They run around with 1 Harpooner, recapturing mines. As soon as I kill Rolf, the computer immediately hires him again. It's strange, as the map doesn't seem to have any scripts
