demonic heroes come through the portal, 5 at a time, and then you can wait for ages... and I didn't manage to complete the ghost mission myself... and as a result, I didn't get access to one-way portals.

Finally, I made some progress. I created something so cool that I was amazed myself. Basically, I go to the ghost to receive a quest, then I go and kill the assassins, come back to the ghost, and the game shows the endless hourglass, while at the same time, I can see the troops in the castles and with the hero, but everything else is loading. I tried sending the assassins to attack the demon, but the same thing happens. After reloading the game six times, I gave up on the ghost, broke through the gates, and went to the castle (successfully defeated it and filled it with corpses). Unfortunately, I didn't get to use the portals, which is a shame because I was hoping to get the "Sylvan" artifact from the trees. Has anyone else experienced this?
By the way, in this last mission, Arantir developed to the level of Ornella, even though I had been leveling her up in all the previous missions.

Finally, I made progress. I came up with such a trick that I was even surprised myself. In short, I go to the ghost, receive a quest, go to kill the assassins, come back to the ghost, and the game shows an infinite hourglass, while at the same time, the troops in the castles and with the hero can be viewed, but everything else is loading. I tried to send the assassins to the demoness, but alas, the same thing happens. After restarting the game six times, I gave up on the ghost, broke through the gates, and went to the Castle (successfully defeated it, filled it with corpses). Unfortunately, I didn't get to use the portals, which is a pity, I was counting on getting the "Supreme Artifact" from the Dryads. Has anyone else experienced this?
By the way, in this last mission, Arantir developed to the level of Ornella, although I was leveling her up in all the previous missions.

It happened to me, but not exactly like that, not in this add-on, not in a Campaign (but in a scenario), and not quite the same.
It just kicked me out of the game when capturing a city; therefore, I had to finish the scenario, being forced to tolerate the presence of an opponent that I could have crushed long ago.
In your case, it really turned out badly; you, as I understand, were going for the ULTIMATE ABILITY (if I correctly deciphered the abbreviation "Supreme Artifact") and you didn't get it... but Arantir won't be in the following Campaigns, so in my opinion, it's not a big loss...

Since Arantir won't be available, it's not all that bad. His special ability is great. And is the "Ultimate Ability" even better, or is it the same? It's a shame that I never got to use his special ability; I never achieved it and never saw it in action, so I just have to imagine it.

SA and ULTIMATE Ability are the same thing. I obtained it once in the original game's campaign while playing as demons. In this campaign, I didn't even try to get it. Also, I don't aim to get SA when playing with friends as Necropolis in HotS. However, in the next campaign, I might try to obtain it. I haven't decided yet. I leveled up both heroes in Darkness, Summoning, Education, Sorcery, and Luck. Currently, I'm at the beginning of this mission. I've captured one castle and defeated one demon.

I don't know, maybe I'm the only one, but I can't complete this accursed mission - "Will of Ashi".
I've tried different approaches:
1. I didn't kill the assassins, but sent them to the demonesses, and placed 4 heroes in the circles of the House - nothing happened.
2. I killed the assassins, placed 4 heroes in the circles of the House, and had an additional hero run to the spirit - it didn't open; I also had all of them run to the spirit one by one, changing their positions - nothing happens.
3. I killed the assassins, entered the portal with the trees, gained a few levels, placed 4 heroes in the circles of the House - and still nothing happens.
4. I even captured the gold mines in the last portal - still nothing.

All that's left is to reinstall the game.

I don't know, maybe I'm the only one, but I can't complete this accursed mission – The Will of Askh.
I've already tried different approaches:
1. I didn't kill the assassins; instead, I sent them to the demonesses. I placed 4 heroes in the circles of chaos – nothing happened. =(
2. I killed the assassins, placed 4 heroes in the circles of chaos, and had an additional hero run to the spirit – it didn't open; I also had all of them run to the spirit one by one, changing their positions – nothing happens.

Which heroes are you placing in the circles of chaos? You wrote that you had an additional hero run to the spirit; you need to place Ornella and three other Necromancers, who can be hired in the tavern, in the circles. Personally, I sent the assassins to the demoness, and everything worked out easily with the circles. Try it, good luck!

Which heroes do you send to the Circles of Chaos? You mentioned using an extra hero to reach the Spirit, so you should send Ornella and three more Necromancers to the Circles, who can be hired at the tavern. Personally, I sent the Assassins to the Demoness, and I had no problems with the Circles. Try it, good luck!

I can only hire 2 heroes from the Necropolis, so I end up with:
Arantir, Ornella, Kaspar, Naadir + there's also a Knight, Valeria, who's stuck in the Dungeon, and I can't hire anyone else.
I've already tried all the combinations - nothing works.

I don't remember the names of the Necromancer heroes I hired; I hired two of them at the beginning of the campaign in the tavern, and another one the next day. I couldn't hire any more after that. I'll try replaying the game and let you know. I don't remember anything about the knight in the dungeon.

, I'll try replaying it – I'll let you know.

No need to do it because of me; maybe someone else will come and give me a hint, and I've already replayed this mission for the third time, it's a pity that it's been unsuccessful :(
But on the third try, the hero had 43 liches by the second week :D

Added after 2 hours 37 minutes
Well, I really don't know, I made 4 heroes above level 20 using the Sacrificial Altar, I slaughtered a bunch of infidels :))) - sent them to the portals of the Haven and the gates near the spirit still don't open =((((
But I learned a big advantage of playing as Necropolis, when you have many heroes! They increase dark magic, probably not news, but it's very new to me =)<

Don't worry about me, maybe someone else will come and give me some advice, and I've already replayed this mission three times, it's a shame that it's been unsuccessful :(
But on the third try, the hero had 43 liches by the second week :D

I'm replaying because I'm curious myself, after the first two turns)).
In the first turn, I hire necromancers in the castle tavern: the hero Naadir - level 1, and in the second turn, two more: Kaspar - level 6 and Ravenna - level 3. In total, Arantir, Ornella, and three from the tavern. That's four necromancers + Arantir to perform the ritual.
I'll try to complete it later, but when I played, everything went smoothly without any problems.

Estel_Laiquacalma, you're amazing! Thank you so much. I probably couldn't complete it because I needed one more Necromancer. But with your method: *On the first turn, I hire Necropolis heroes in the castle tavern: Naadir - level 1. On the second turn, I hire two more: Kaspar - level 6 and Ravenna - level 3. In total, Arantir, Ornella, and three from the tavern. That's four Necromancers + Arantir to perform the ritual.* I was also able to hire three!!! So, I'll be able to complete it! Hooray! I was struggling with it for about two days, then I started looking for hints on the internet, and I found this site, and here's such great help!!!
Hooray!:smile03: :smile03: :smile03:

I've only bought two heroes so far – I'm short on funds. I think it's never too late to buy a third. I captured three castles. I went looking for a fourth, following the trail of an enemy hero. But then, two demons suddenly appeared, very close to two of my captured castles. One castle is empty, and the other has Ornella with a small army. I had to abandon the search for the fourth castle and deal with the demons. Luckily, instead of heading for the castles, they moved towards each other. Now they can't escape from Arantir. Besides, he has a portal to the city, just in case.

Estel_Laiquacalma, you're amazing! Thank you, I probably couldn't pass it because I was missing one more Necromancer, but with your method:

See, it turned out not to be that difficult after all. I hope I helped, good luck, and feel free to ask if you need anything else))

I've only bought two heroes so far - I don't have enough money. I think buying a 3rd one is never too late.

What difficulty level are you playing on? I played on Veteran, and I didn't have any particular problems with finances, especially with having several castles. I think buying a third one is never too late, but I was describing how I passed it; everyone has their own tactics, although who knows, there can be glitches, we've all encountered them))
