Played Dunkler Horizont on 200% completely stress-free! Apparently, there's still a serious imbalance somewhere in the map's logic. I started with Orrin, rightly assuming that shooters would be the main damage-dealing stacks. On week 2, I took the second Castle; on week 3, I built Angels. On week 4, after purchasing everything I could afford, I went for the Barbarians. The main Barbarian hero had buggered off somewhere, so I captured both Barbarian towns without any effort. After that, I did nothing for about a month, saving money to buy troops. By that time, a Necromancer showed up, captured the Rampant just above our starting towns, and holed up there for a long time. There was no other activity from the Necromancers at all (they never even read the green tent)! In the end, after a couple of months, having amassed an army, I took out that Necro and then systematically cleared the entire map with almost no resistance. It even got boring. Moreover, the Necromancer towns had a huge number of unclaimed troops, which later came in very handy (5k Vampires easily dismantle a legion of Azure Dragons). This level of passivity from the Necros is hard to explain.

Yes, Gelu was very useful

P.S. I didn't come across any Necros in the tavern, so it seems that player with the Cloak of the Undead King was cheating))
