I rarely abandon partially completed maps. But I no longer have the strength. It's impossible to build anything properly. She broke through the outpost, lost everyone, and somehow managed with an angel/angels later. The mines are too difficult. While I'm skipping turns, the opponent is building. Everything comes down to brute force. Brute force depends on random chance and the player's skill (really, you might as well play as a Warrior). In normal maps, playing as a hero, you compensate for the resource difference with smart skill development. I barely managed to defend the mines with more acceptable random chance, scraped together enough for knights, and then, fed up, I opened the map with a cheat – the opponent already has a castle built. Forget it...

I rarely abandon half-finished maps. But I don't have the strength anymore. It's impossible to build anything properly.

Everything comes down to brute force. Brute force depends on luck and the player's skill (really, you might as well play as a Warrior). In normal maps, playing as a hero, you compensate for the resource difference with smart leveling.

If it weren't for your comment, I would have missed it. Heroes don't go well with fools; I'm against turning chess into a laughingstock. No offense to the author. We are all intelligent people here... playing Heroes is not the same as playing Dota. Serious scenarios evoke serious interest, but it's worth watching to form your own opinion.

Now that the main mines are accessible, it's passable. I like experiments, and it can be played as an experiment, but the enjoyment is questionable. Everything depends on random chance. In the middle of the game, I also revealed the map using a cheat – the computer, with random events in the mines, was unlucky and fell significantly behind in building. I was also lucky with the training scenarios (4 luck points). If the main idea is simply to play with level 1 heroes, then, although it's interesting due to its unconventional nature, it's still flawed because it cuts out half of the gameplay (and it's not really "heroes" anymore). If the idea is to train "dummies," then, perhaps, some training stages could have been implemented – a level awarded for something (for example, exam zones in which you need to defeat someone using a clever method; maybe at the entrance, give scrolls with spells to choose from before the exam battle – choose the right one, win, pass, level up, etc.). Also, make the training hut scenarios not random, but think through several builds and, in accordance with them, offer a choice of several skills in the huts. And put non-random, well-thought-out armies on all the mines. As it is now, it's a strange exhibit in a freak show.

in the worst case, there are heroes in dungeons with decent skills here
