But what if you get attacked? You're walking around the map, scouting, for example, you've split your army into slots to summon only the necessary units, and suddenly you get attacked... That's what I'm talking about... The army is scattered, and it's a surprise attack.
Anything can happen, who's arguing? But here, you need to consider it in conjunction with your next question, namely, when to level up? Personally, I level up when magic is either fully maxed out, or at least at level 3-4. The situation is different then. In the castle, you have time to build a lot. There's no need to split the army into slots. Because, in principle, only two slots remain free. I level up two heroes. That's it. I put one unit in one, and leave the other empty.
I don't level up at the beginning because I don't want to sacrifice magic. But even if you take level 1-2 of Summoning at the beginning, I don't think anyone will attack you early on. Especially the AI. And it seems like we're talking about it.
I didn't quite understand what you meant.
I'm talking about convenience. You might say that it's inconvenient to split the army back and forth, etc. So, I gave an example with artifacts. Because you often have to switch them. A sailor's hat for sailing, a helmet for battle, etc.
I want to mention another example. Some people keep slow units (like ballistas, poisonous creatures, etc.) in the castle while they move around the map. I think that's even worse. If they get attacked, it could be a disaster...
Regarding elementals, getting 1 every two days isn't much, but it's a great addition to the elementals from the portal, in my opinion. They are almost level 3 monsters.
Hey, according to the scenario, my line should be :D You don't like elementals!
I want to try all this now, it's a pity I don't have a video, but I'll try to get used to Nature somehow during work hours.
That's all I do, I explain everything... So that at least someone will have the desire to re-evaluate. I'm not asking anyone to change their opinion or anything. I'm just explaining mine.
By the way, it's interesting what will happen if you swap units, remove one from your army, and put a "charmed" unit in its place.
They disappear :(
