Through trial and error, I figured out how to deal with the blue faction in the first month of the game. You need to let two of the first blue messengers (not very strong ones) live, but also not let them reach the castle (their task is to attack it). It's difficult, but it turned out to be possible (although it's hard to believe). I'll keep playing, and if I find anything else, I'll let you know.

I encountered another bug: Holy Flame is taken without an artifact, just like that! Banning the portal to the city is a bad idea. The constantly spawning blue units are also not the best move.

Alaric is quite annoying; you kill him, and he immediately revives near Holyflame (a very bad design; I haven't encountered him in the crypt, and I haven't received the quest for the Castle). Here's another issue: the cloak increases spell power not by 10, but by 60, which is great! And here's something else that surprised me: the red faction can move through the underground passage, but I'm not allowed to pass (this is where the bridge was built).

The same bug with the demon: all enemies are killed, but the battle doesn't end. I'm speechless, just cursing. I strongly request that the author play through their map from beginning to end without using the console, at least on the easiest difficulty, and fix all this mess.

I deleted all my old saves. After about a dozen playthroughs, I finally managed to complete the battle with Chaos. The question is, was it worth it to exploit a bug just to summon essentially useless troops? I dug up the Ash and built it in Mythgard. I went to Holyflame and nothing happened. For some reason, Melchior obeys me. Okay, fine, I kill him, but I can't enter the city (even though it was mine before), so I don't get the amulet and can't go through the portal. The game ends there. I haven't encountered a more buggy map (the behavior of the blue faction, especially Alaric the Lich, the battle with the demons, the weirdness with magic, not getting the amulet, and other minor glitches). Hello to everyone, and good luck, but I'm getting tired of all this.

BlueHeavenHero, perhaps Antik can attach his save files here, you can load them and get a relatively good idea of his progress.

Regarding the Tear. It's located RIGHT IN FRONT of Alaric. We pass through the reapers, turn around, and calmly dig it up without going up to the crypt and Alaric.

Yeah, that's right. It's impossible to get it without a fight now. I tried to use teleportation cheats as much as I could.

Well, if you teleport there right away, you can dig it up even without the quest. But without the intense... uh... battle with Alaric, it's impossible, even with cheats.
