Campaigns of Heroes of Might and Magic I.Auto-translated
Yes, that's it... four sides, 99 griffons each – but the real highlight is the dragon castle itself: five stacks of four dragons each (a total of 20)... an unprecedented occurrence in Heroes 1.
I just finished the campaign playing as the Wizard (I actually downloaded the first Heroes game recently and immediately started playing the campaign :D).
I used the following tactic:
1. Build a Dragon Tower as quickly as possible.
2. Start accumulating a small army of dragons (forget about everything else).
3. Acquire powerful magic like Armageddon or Storm, eliminate enemy heroes, and level up my main hero.
Then, using Armageddon, I defeated armies that were significantly stronger than my 5-15 dragons. In particular, I did this against Ironfist, Sleer, and the female hero (I forgot her name :D). It's really fun – I stand behind the walls and cast spells until almost the entire enemy army is destroyed. And if archers start taking down my dragons, I bribe them and run away. After a few such raids, the accumulated enemy army dwindles :D
Overall, it's a fun game, especially the music – in my opinion, it's better than in the other parts)))
I completed the campaign for Queen Lamanda in 110 days, and I had to redo many sections to optimize the main hero's moves and replay battles.
The first level is completed in 3 days.
And yes, I took all the chests for money, quickly built dragons, and arrived at the enemies' locations early. Usually, 4 dragons with reinforcements were enough, except for the level where I had to defeat the warlock in the volcano, which required 7 dragons, 4 phoenixes, and reinforcements.
In all levels, the main hero was a barbarian, sometimes a knight if the terrain was suitable. I only bought the spellbook at the very end of each level and used only level 1 magic because there wasn't enough time to build level 2.
Attached are the save files for levels 5-8 before the final battles. On levels 8 and, especially, 7, I had to replay the battles many times to achieve victory. The setup is already suitable; you just need to make the right moves. Morale and luck also have an impact, but not as much as the correct moves and surviving units.
