HELP ME BEAT IT!!!! The demons have too big of an army and there are a ton of heroes!!!!!!!!!!:D

I have the same problem. I take an army, move away or not, and I get destroyed anyway!

I completed it! You just need to spend 2-3 weeks building up your army, and THEN storm the Castle located in the north, then the castle in the west (very difficult, but achievable), and then the castle in the east. I recommend having two heroes.

Army:
!Elven Archer - 60 units.
!High Druid - 40 units.
!!!Ancient Ent - 60 units (recommended).

damn... all my castles...
and I gathered dragons... but there's no activity.
no movement at all... I checked the box that the main task is completed, and that's it.
what should I do?

There should be exactly 20 dragons – no more, no less. If you have 21 or more, delete one, and that’s it!!! :D

I think the goal isn't to collect 20 dragons (I, for example, only collected 19), but to visit all the obelisks.

people...
how can I split up units...?
like, how can I make 20 units out of 30 dragons and have 10 left over?

Use Shift. Select and drag.
P.S. Please use the search function, dear forum members, before asking a question, as it may have already been answered (many times).

I tried all day to complete this campaign using the strategy you suggested, but it's not working.:( Could you please provide a more detailed walkthrough? Thank you in advance!

HELP!!! How do I defeat the demons?! :mad:

quickly, please, if possible. I was also struggling here, but since you completed it for Inferno, you should be able to do it here too. I played quickly, drove everyone out of the upper castle, and then took control of the central one.

Okay, I'll try to help (this is the third time I'm writing a Walkthrough; if I knew who deleted the previous one, I would have...). As far as I remember, the starting position for the Elves is in the lower right corner. The enemies are directly above, on one island; you can only reach it by sailing. Directly to the left, in the corner, is the second island, which can also only be reached by sea. And to the left-up is the third island, which can be reached both by land and underground. (All my advice is oriented as if the map is displayed from bottom to top.)
My hero was developed with Light Magic, without summoning (this has an impact on the Walkthrough).
In the first week, we clear our entire island, except for the passage downwards, WITHOUT any losses.
Then, we buy troops (preferably already having Ents in the Castle), prioritizing Archers, Druids, Ents, and meat in the form of Dryad Dancers; Unicorns can be left. And we go through the Dungeon to capture the middle Castle (we must manage to do this by the end of the week). There is one nuance here: at the start of the mission, a hero with a strong army runs/swims from the left Castle towards us. I distracted him with my left hero in a boat, moving him 3-4 steps in different directions. Thanks to this maneuver, we manage to capture the Inferno and return.
After this, we have two Castles each. And then, the computer either sails from the upper Castle to recapture the Inferno (while we go to his Castle), or attacks us (then we defend the Castle and go to him again).
After capturing this Castle, it usually isn't a problem to finish off the last Castle... Although, the computer from the lower-left corner can recapture the central Castle by sea (the main thing is to buy up the troops in it), but this is no longer a problem, since the main armies have already been destroyed.
Some small tips: try to get at least a couple of Dragons in your army as soon as possible (some of them are very easy to recruit).
And, of course, conduct battles while losing as few troops as possible.
The main forces were Hunters, Druids, Ents, Lords, and meat in the form of Dancer-Dryads, and Dragons.

Thank you for your comment. But which one is the northernmost, and which one is the central? They are both in the north. How many weeks does it take to capture the castles? I'll probably be playing it for the rest of my life!

Thank you very much! I'll try it now.

As far as I remember, in this mission, it's not necessary to gather 20 dragons. You can simply accumulate them in the castle.
