I need help with the "Strength and Wit" campaign. I'm stuck on the second mission, where I have to defeat the Knight of Horror with snipers. I've already found everything on this map, collected the anti-magic spell, the slow spell, and all the artifacts (2 on the field + 2 from the peasants), but I can't figure out how to defeat the knights. If I use anti-magic on the snipers to prevent them from killing me with their explosion, I don't have time to slow them down, and they come out. If I slow them down, the explosion still kills me. Please advise on what I should do.

It's quite problematic to record a battle of 18.5 thousand rounds in its entirety. Even considering that the maximum animation speed was enabled, and where manual attacks were needed, an autoclicker was used, this took more than an hour of real time.
But when experimenting, I recorded the beginning of the battle, of course. There's nothing special about it. You just need to position the dragons so they attack each other and then shoot them down with towers. So, winning this battle is quite possible, it's just too long.

I myself didn't really believe that it was possible to win this battle. After experimenting with a similar strategy in "Sylvan", I remembered this battle from Metataks and became curious if it was possible to win it using the same strategy. The presence of elves and the need to destroy the catapult before it breaks the towers made the task a little more difficult, but in principle, everything turned out to be solvable. The only inconvenience is that it takes too long.

Although, the other day, on a well-known channel, I saw an even more incredible battle, in comparison with which this one is just child's play. There, an enemy with thousands of units and a red orb of over 100,000 rounds was killed by a ballista! And it took 5 or 6 hours of real time. That was truly insane. eek

Happy New Year, ladies and gentlemen. I've been working on a second pack of Chinese maps for a while now, and I can finally share it with you. I hope you find just as many interesting maps in it as you did in the first one.

I don't know if this bug has been described before; I wasn't aware of it. There's a way to win any map in a single day. Start a map, delete the map file from the Maps folder, click "replay scenario," pass the turn – and you win! I haven't tested it with mods.

There hasn't been much activity in this thread lately, but I think someone will be interested. In any case, thank you for the maps.

It doesn't work with mods. I remember that if I launched an old save, and the map file was no longer in the maps folder, clicking "replay scenario" would bring up a message saying "map file not found, replay is not possible."

We're waiting for many speedruns from fans who like to use "all the game's possibilities." smile20

Speedrun here – who can click the mouse the fastest?

Not bad, not bad...

Is the point of a speedrun here to see who can click the mouse the fastest?

Not bad, not bad...

Well, someone who enjoys opening tents or starting the game from behind a computer might like this kind of speedrun :D

Found a bug:

If you start a map, then exit to the menu and start another, artifacts are somehow transferred between identical heroes.

Here are a couple of examples:

1) Start The Last Crusade, then Metataxer's Revenge. You get Vertigo with the following artifacts:

2) Start Metataxer's Revenge, then Heroes of Jin Yong. The starting hero has the Vessel of Life artifact from Frend from Metataxer's Revenge:

3) The Last Crusade, then Jedi Strikes Back - you get Cielke with the spellbook from Cielke from TLC in her inventory.

P.S. sod_sp is not involved here (tested without it).

Why go to all that trouble?

0) Save the game.
1) Enter the cheat code for all city buildings.
2) Go through the castles to apply the effect.
3) Exit to the main menu without saving.
4) Load the game.

But why play like that?

Really? And what are these nasty insinuations?

I'm just curious where the line is that "fans of using ALL the game's features" can't cross for speedrunning. The quick battle bug, opening tents, starting with a companion... Now they've shown a bug that allows transferring artifacts from one map to another, and even a bug for a quick victory in 1 day by deleting the map. It's really interesting, where is the line between what's allowed and what's not? :D
