[spoiler=walkthrough hint - spoiler]It is recommended to use various stat-boosting items for all main heroes towards the end of the game. One of them will participate in the final battle. Who exactly will be clear closer to the end.[/spoiler]

Thank you very much for the new map; at first glance, it looks great. For now, I have one question: are the map's events a continuation after the last mission?

Does the title not tell you anything?

Doesn't the name tell you anything?

A Chukchi doesn't read, a Chukchi writes.:)

That's a fair point, but at the start of the map, it doesn't really explain who came from where. It's quite possible that this was explained in earlier parts, but a small summary would be nice.

It's impossible to tell the story in a few words.
The events of the map are preceded by 2 long campaigns and 2 more maps. I try not to leave any gaps in the story. This map will close several plot arcs that were opened a long time ago.

There, the description that is shown at the start could be placed as information in some kind of task, so that it doesn't get lost from view after the messages are displayed; otherwise, after a week of gameplay, you won't remember everything.

I understand that the mentor will be in charge of two heroes here, the map is small for 7 players, and there's nowhere to level up. :)

Some not-so-weak demon appeared as early as the second week of the game https://c2n.me/48fftaj (stats from the tavern are 24-24-40-30). Even though my Frieda is already level 14, and Zephyr is level 11, if he attacks, it's game over.

I've started playing, and unfortunately, I have a few observations: a) Please synchronize the animations; the lightning strike takes a second or two, and then the devil dies – it's a bit jarring. b) The knight hero has a speaking animation, and Frida has 3 different ones (nervous, calm, solemn), but why are they waving their swords and shields with their mouths closed? c) 7 main heroes – I think that's too many. Not only do I not know which ones to level up (maybe mentoring will help), but I also need to find a place for all the heroes. I guess I'll have to play as Cain (he leveled up after the battles) or Zehir, taking advantage of his special ability, because demoralizing enemy troops with heroes of evil races will be enjoyable. Fayedan's special ability is useless without a lot of archers. Well, I'm starting the walkthrough.

Some pretty strong demon appeared as early as the second week of the game https://c2n.me/48fftaj (stats from the tavern are 24-24-40-30). Even though my Frieda is already level 14, and Zephyr is level 11, if he attacks, it's game over.

If it's the yellow demon, you should only be afraid of him if you go outside the inner garrison. He won't run to the castle (information is in the map description at the start).

By the way, here's a funny thing: catapults require 20 sulfur, but only consume 10. This was a bit confusing, as there isn't much sulfur on the map, and I didn't visit the Oracle because I was constantly short 2-4 units, but if I had, I would have built them earlier, and it would have been better.

7 main heroes – in my opinion, that’s too many. Not only do I not know which ones to level up (maybe mentoring will help), but I also need to find a place for all the heroes. I guess I’ll have to play as Cain (he jumped up levels after the battle) or Zehir because of his special ability, as the heroes of evil races will gladly demoralize human troops. Fae’daen’s special ability is useless without a lot of archers...
Well, I’m starting the Walkthrough.

6 heroes. Cain is not a main hero. You can safely lose him or have him flee the battlefield (he will appear in the tavern when he flees). There is a safe place on the map for each hero. It is not necessary to level them all up to level 35, but it is desirable to visit the upgrade locations.

I was a little confused because there is not much sulfur on the map, and I didn’t go to the prophet because I was constantly short of 2-4 units, but I would have built them earlier and it would have been better.

no, it should require 10. I rechecked the file.

in most videos, the heroes speak with their mouths closed. this is a “feature” of Heroes 5

This feature was only in the basic Heroes 5. But there were advanced animations, and the technology for creating them has been lost! And in the add-ons Hammers of Fate and Tribes of the East, there were no longer advanced animations, but everyone opened their mouths. There are 2 parts of the heroes where the characters speak with their mouths open, and 1 with their mouths closed, and I believe that a feature of the minority cannot be considered a feature.

Ah, I see. The task description says 20 units of sulfur, yes. But the Oracle's message says 10. I forgot to update the description.

Well, my modest (and perhaps underestimated, as when reviewing Master-level maps, I demand too much):
Idea: 10/10;
Scripts: 10/10;
Graphics: 7/10 (I can elaborate on what I didn't like);
Overall: 9/10;
