Liberation

I played the hard version with a specific hero and completed the first mission in about six months. Honestly, my feelings are quite mixed. I didn't like the following things. First, the map feels bare; there's a lot of empty space, and, most importantly, it lacks the usual buildings found on normal maps that provide money, resources, artifacts, or boost stats. I was especially disappointed by the absence of a mentor and a church (where I could have hidden that useless general; I don't remember his name). Second, despite their power, the AI heroes behave rather foolishly. Instead of joining forces, they attack individually and sometimes get defeated (although, at first, it was with significant losses). Furthermore, they ignore the possibility of preparing their troops, so I ran around the castles and collected the "harvest." Also, near the end of the game, I encountered highly leveled human heroes (level 27) in the tavern, which I hadn't seen before. The question is, if it wasn't me who defeated them, then who did? The ending was disappointing; I expected something more epic. In general, after starting the second mission and seeing that it would be roughly the same, but with elves, I decided to take a break. Nevertheless, thank you, and good luck to the author.
