1) Monks are still in the Necromancer lands.
2) Nothing is connected to them except provisions.
3) You need 80 of them to make the market work.
Were there any issues with the first map?
Added 1 minute ago
I changed one xdb file, artifacts. One necessary item was missing there.
Well, I haven't even started the campaign yet; I just started the Outcast's Path scenario on Veteran difficulty and decided to finish it.
And where do you get 80 of them?
I think the maximum you can get is 70 (if you help the allies):
1) Elementals
2) 2 Arenas
3) 2 Mines
4) 2 Farms
5) Rescuing the owner of the shipyard
All completed.
Did I miss anything?
