These are very powerful stats, I would even say Great! How did you manage to level up so much?

Druids with a deer head!!!!????:smile52: :smile52:

There's a problem with the Druids. The deer head appears in two upgrades. Which one exactly? The brown one or the blue one?:D :)

A lot depends on proper skill allocation.
Show off your skills. Here are mine.


I cleared the garrisons without any losses. But it was a bit more challenging with Faidaen. I lost all my melee fighters. Only the archers survived.

Oops, I mixed things up. Faidaen immediately killed the assassins at the beginning of the battle. The survivors on my side were: Furies, Twilight Witches, Master Archers, and Druids with deer antlers.

When leveling up, I aimed for "Fury of the Elements," and I invested in Logistics and Machine Management.

By the way, I appreciated that a large part of the quest elements on the second map were taken from Gothic 3. Is the author a fan?

I'm also a fan of Gothic, but I didn't see anything similar.

Well, if you didn't notice anything, it means you haven't played the third part of Gothic. Divine artifacts in the pyramids, barrels with food, a human spy in the orc city, luring the slave guards in the orc city (a quest for the rebels in Montera), all of Urok's quests in the orc city are quests for the orc chief in Geldern - to check the mines and bring an artifact from the ruins. This is just what I remembered right away.

I played Gothic 3, and not just once. I simply forgot the quests from the second mission of this Campaign. But yes, there is a very strong similarity.

What lag in the 3rd scenario are you talking about? Does the map author know about it?

Another very noticeable similarity to the Gothic game series is the nonsensical explanation of why the hero loses all their skills and abilities each time. After 2 maps, this gimmick didn't appeal to me very much. I sincerely apologize for what I'm about to say, but I can't put it any other way; I've already spent a lot of time on the campaign (about 3 days, and I've only completed 2 maps).
Yeah, I understand that randomness is good, and balance in strategy games is built on randomness. But when, on the 3rd map, at the very beginning, the artifact guarded by Death Knights was a Scroll of Phantom Creation in my first playthrough, and in my second playthrough, it was Dragonbone Greaves, I don't need this randomness, GIVE ME MY SCROLL!!! First, I have to recover from the fact that I have to level up my character again on each map, then recover from the terrible plot and dialogues (forcing a canonical hell with the devil into any of the Heroes universes – and in Heroes 5, it's as if Shio and the Overlord are missing – this seems like such nonsense that I simply couldn't read the dialogues; in the first map, it's the lands of the Wood Elves, where all races live except for the Wood Elves, among whom there are many of their dark brethren who want to join the main character. The plot is, of course, not the most important thing in the Heroes universes, and it can be sacrificed for the sake of gameplay, but this theater of the absurd somehow greatly affects my peace of mind), then recover from the lag in the 3rd scenario(!), which I've never had on any other map. I'm afraid I just won't be able to complete the 3rd map.
