I checked the map properties in the editor; it seems you can only ban neutral races, not specific types of creatures.

level - hero.
Okay, then there's no point in banning. But I'll have to go back to all this later when we've accumulated enough troops.
On the 1st day of the 3rd month, I managed to take the (yellow) town – they broke through the bridge, and I went to them. After that, everything seems passable, at least UNTIL THE VISIT TO THE DWARVES. It seems that the only thing that somehow bothers me (well, this is purely subjective:) ) is that I'll have to run around a lot... and somewhere above it was said
"It makes sense to maximize the upgrades in the first part, but without dragging it out"
what does it mean not to drag it out and where exactly? because when we're at the bottom, we still sit and wait for the initiative from the guys in the neighboring areas. In my case, the initiative happened at the very end of the 2nd month.
In general, that's it, I hope I explained my thought clearly, because sometimes it comes out a bit chaotic, sorry.
Personally, my wishes would be to add a mentor in our area (not very well-protected), somewhere in the middle, around the crystal, to make an abandoned mine (preferably with gold, the money will go to the mentor and then be needed for troops), so that at the start, we can unload troops there just for convenience and peace of mind, move the fountain to the bridge where the witch's hut is, and remove the sulfur mine. The balance of troops can basically be left as it is for the hero... of course, the defense of the libraries could be weakened a little, because it seems like it's not a library, but a liquor store. I think we'll have to run around there again somewhere at the end and break through with brute force... but for now, I don't feel like it. That's all for now.
And what does it mean not to drag it out with all this running around.... we'll see

As soon as I finish with the guys at the bottom, I'll write, then I'll try to replay the first 2 months once - if there are no problems, then for the hero, as it is now, UP TO THE DWARVES, you can basically leave it, including the balance of forces. I don't know about veteran, I hope it's not more difficult there)

Master, please upload the files properly! They can’t be extracted from WinRAR; it shows an error or some other nonsense!

I started a hardcore campaign with a hero. I spent 2 months running around my territory, clearing everything except for the titans at the library and breaking through a one-way portal. By that point, the demon gathering had been reduced to a single Alastor, who, upon seeing me, immediately teleported to his castle. I ran around almost the entire map looking for upgrades and attacked him in his castle . After the victory, there was a cutscene, and I was moved to the next level. At the same time, all skills were taken away, attack and defense were reset to zero, and magic and knowledge were reduced to one. I was a little surprised, but I thought it was supposed to be that way. Fortunately, the first and second-level spells were preserved, and I had 300 mana. I attacked two hundred bears with 18 imps and slowly and tediously spat out 35 damage at them . After the battle, I was given level 5, and I learned new skills, but the stats remained at zero! This is clearly too much. The save file is 8 MB – unfortunately, I can’t upload it.

I started a hardcore Campaign on a hero. I spent 2 months running around my territory, clearing everything except for the Titans near the library and opening a one-way portal. By that time, the demon gathering had been reduced to just one Alastor, who, upon seeing me, immediately teleported back to his Castle . I ran around almost the entire map looking for upgrades and attacked him in his Castle. After the victory, there was a cutscene, and I was moved to the next level. At the same time, all skills were taken away, attack and defense were reset to zero, and magic and knowledge were reduced to one. I was a little surprised, but I thought that's how it should be. Fortunately, the first and second-level spells were preserved, and I had a mana reserve of 300. I attacked two hundred bears with 18 Imps and slowly and tediously spat fire at them, dealing 35 damage . After the battle, I was given level 5, and I learned new skills, but the stats remained at zero! This is clearly an exaggeration. The save file is 8 MB - unfortunately, I can't upload it.

The Campaign version is outdated. This was fixed a day after the Campaign was released.
You can upload the save file to any file-sharing service, for example, dropmefiles.ru. I can fix the stats through the console so you don't have to start over.

So, the Hell invasion.zip file on the first page is bugged, and only the Hell invasion (spell boost).zip file works correctly?

No. Both are normal. The Master simply updated the first file the day after the release, and before that, it was buggy.

Added after 46 seconds
And the second version appeared later. It has the old spell power of Sigrif.

Is this a feature of the campaign ? Guarding the portal. I'm tired of clicking with the mouse. They gave me level 20 right away from level 16.
By the way, is the Trident of the Titans forbidden? Because I've started over many times and never seen it.

The AI's stupidity on the Secret Crystals is a common occurrence.
Yes, it is prohibited. It is a quest artifact.

Well, it's understandable when it comes to crystals. But here, I couldn't use crystals for cover, and he was still acting strangely. Usually, to make him act strangely, you need to set up a double barrier so he can't break through on the first try, but here, I have no idea where it is. In short, I'm encountering this level of AI stupidity for the first time:eek:

Yes, I know the feeling. He reacts differently to these things.

Has anyone managed to progress beyond the second level?

Yes, I don’t think I’ll get any further than this transfer to the surface. I downloaded it again, started a new game, fought the demons underground – it transferred me to the surface, but the level is still the first one – although it didn’t reset all the stats. I fought two battles – it gave me 5k experience – but the level is still the first!. In general, the hardcore version is still buggy. In the video, before the transfer, it mentions a pendant of mastery, for capturing Wolfenstein – but the inventory is empty. What should happen after the transfer to the surface? Should the level reset? Should the stats decrease, and if so, what’s the point of running around the level-up areas in the dungeons?

I remember that they reduced the stats, but there were no problems with the level. I completed it normally, and if needed, I can look for the save file after the transfer, although it was on Veteran difficulty.

I also didn't have any problems with the level.

I don't have a save file from before the transfer to the surface. Maybe it will help to catch the bug.
