I suggested a challenge in this VK group: a challenge involving capturing the "Beast" castle. The goal is to capture the "Beast" castle using the fewest walls and the smallest number of troops. The first criterion is more important. I'll also post it here; maybe more people will be interested:smile15: In the future, I plan to create a short video series showing how to capture objects with the "Sylvan" faction using basic fire magic. A test to see what the newly acquired "Sylvan" faction is capable of:D

Answer to the puzzle.
Out of the proposed options, the best one was 3 walls and two sprites, with one sprite being sacrificed. This strategy is good because it works for almost any map where the sprites' speed on grass is reduced by one.

If you're looking for a solution with 2 walls, there are quite a few ways to deal with 3 walls and one fake sprite. I found at least 8 solutions. There are also a couple of options where, after the second wall, a stack of 20 imps remains, which can be finished off with a stack of sprites without losses with normal RNG, but this is at the expense of the second criterion of the puzzle.

It's a bit unclear.

So, while you're looking for a solution with 2 walls, you can find about 8 different solutions for 3 walls. I even stopped counting them at some point.

For 2 walls, you definitely need to use certain moves where the grid tries to trick us. Example with initial moves.
