Walkthroughs for custom maps.

I'm currently playing the The Lord of War map. It was the end of the 4th month, about 1/4 of the map was still unexplored, and then this happened: a Necromancer (Pink) suddenly landed in a secluded spot on my territory in the northwest of the overland, came from a boat, visited a Brown Tent, and rushed to the nearest Citadel. I was doubly upset: he almost reached the city, but most importantly, he flew over the mountains! I did defeat him, although each time (with every attempt) he managed to escape. Flying enemies are the main problem with maps like this.
Yes, I just checked: since the map version is RoE, all spells are allowed. But this means that the further I go, the more territory will be captured by strong enemies, and the worst thing is: they will definitely end up where, according to the author's plan, they shouldn't be! I'll continue, but I can't imagine what will happen next.
Earlier, I noticed using the "Look at Land" ability that the gold mines in the Dungeon, guarded by Dwarves, belonged to the Pink player. After getting there and destroying one of the Pink Necromancers along the way, I wondered: how did he get there? I checked in the editor: indeed, the mines are unclaimed at the start. So, he flew there too. Things are not looking good. And how about you, freesmart, and everyone else who has played it: were there also flying enemies and a lot of problems because of that?
But at the beginning of the 5th month, I got lucky: Nephretetos, level 32, whom I had defeated some time ago, appeared in the tavern. I assessed his skills (he is an expert in all schools of magic) and hired him. Leondegrance is still the main warrior, but now exploring the map will be faster. Overall, I'll say it again: the map is not so much difficult as it is long, and "the further into the woods, the thicker the dendroids," i.e., "the more meat." :)
On day 521 - again, luck: Lomkorus, level 33, also previously defeated by me, visited the tavern. I hired him too: he will be useful!
And the chessboard, as I now know, is not just there, but also plays a crucial role in successfully completing the map: firstly, it contains :smile49:, and secondly, you can greatly improve your main hero there, and also secondary heroes who have already visited the nearest Stones of Knowledge and don't have much else to do can also be improved - let them learn useful skills!
