I'll take a look.

Fixed the crash; there was an error with the Necromancer event (when the castle is captured). Also, prevented the Turquoise player from searching for the Tear of Ash. The first post has been updated.

Uploaded a new version of the map, replayed the battle against the Necromancer - three days after that, just like last time, the game crashed during the Turquoise player's turn.
Should I start from the beginning?? I don't think it will help:smile07:
And, I've been wanting to ask for a long time - why was the portal to the town disabled? It's so hard to get a 2% luck bonus for the Mage, and even harder to find boots in the shop... Maybe it should be placed somewhere under heavy guard?
Regarding the Dwarves - IMHO, they shouldn't have been given a tavern. After clearing the dungeon, the heroes rush in like cockroaches, and the second Dwarf even stole the hero's boat:eek:
And another question bothers me - why does a Djinn sometimes appear and disappear in places of power instead of the spawning army? Is that intentional?

No, if you start playing from the beginning, everything is fine; I finally reached the finale. I accidentally took the turquoise castle – I went in a direction I didn't intend to, and it turned out that this was the winning condition. I prepared for the encounter with Hafiz and Nura for nothing...
Thank you for the well-made scenario!

Thanks for the test! By the way, I also fixed that small issue so that it wouldn't "accidentally" happen to capture an empty castle.

Stupefaction.
I completed the druid's quest, and I was marked. I have 23 mages, 80 gremlins, and 21 genies in my army.
But what's next? Where can I buy a Castle or war machines? I wandered around for a long time, trying to figure it out.

I wandered around aimlessly and returned to the druid. I received a quest (why was it given on the second try, and not immediately after completing the first one?).

I attacked the pyramid. I have 21 genies, 36 mages, and 100 gremlins. My hero has a sign and a bow, and nothing else. In the pyramid, there are 10 orange Rakshasa, 18 Viziers, and 42 Obsidian Golems. It's the 4th day of the second month, Heroic difficulty. How can I deal with such losses in every battle, and most importantly, how can I survive with what's left?

The problem is that the time is dragging on because I don't understand what to do.

I managed to complete the map in about 200 days, “heroically.” I don’t know who this kind of scenario is designed for; I found it boring. The main impression is endless, pointless running around. The surface itself is drawn very well and is pleasing to the eye, but the way everything is planned raises many questions.
There was probably a bug with the Necromancers appearing. I only met one – Kaspar. After that, no one else appeared, although they were supposed to appear once a week. By this point, I had already found the Necromancer’s castle, but I didn’t touch it (the conditions stated that Necromancers would appear until their castle was captured).
Why give a starting mage hero without magic, and even with the “Chaos” skill, when the only spell that can be learned will be from “Light”? Why doesn’t he even have a cart (you can’t buy any vehicles at the start)? Vasik is absolutely right about the “logistics” and the incomprehensible druid. Why was it necessary to close the city portal and the ship summoning, what could that have hindered? Why is it not possible to hire a hero in the first castle? The hero is in prison, next to the castle where the tavern is being built. What’s the point of freeing him if he is the same level as a purchased hero? How can you defend your castle (from the weekly Necromancer) and explore anything if the hero is alone and moves very slowly? The assigned mentor has a mockingly decorative purpose. I was forced to restart the map from the beginning only because I missed the logistics (I thought I could manage without it using several heroes). The reward for bringing in four volumes of magic; the ability to recruit elementals – is laughable. Why do almost all opponents have no magic? The green one didn’t know any spells, the turquoise and yellow ones had some simple spells, mostly built into the hero. (Ora used arrow and blessing, Svea – lightning.) No one, even the final hero, used mass spells. In the last third of the game, everything played out on autopilot, so I somehow won by chance. I captured the city in auto-battle, and it turns out that was the finale.
