Ready for battle, attack! ICQ: 411719767

Yesterday, I tried playing online 1v1 for the first time. I'm still experiencing a moral high :-) Before, I only played on a single computer, so it was rare. So now I'll be playing almost every evening...

Guys, if it's not too much trouble, tell me what "getting wrecked in your own castle" means. Is it when you're a strong hero early in the game, but you don't have much of an army and you'd like to appear back at your home castle? If so, how do you "get wrecked"? If you attack an opponent and pay them off, that's understandable. But if there are no enemy heroes, what do you do – attack monsters and surrender? Then all your units are lost, right?...

Enlighten me, please? :-)

I'll play now. Sod, Platinum. Turn time: 4-6 minutes. 419691449

Usually, a strong hero doesn't go alone. There should be at least one other hero nearby to support him – to pick up slow units at the end of each turn. You'll give all the troops to this supporting hero, and they'll move in a chain from hero to hero to reach your intended destination. The main hero, who you leave with only one unit, will attack someone and then retreat, after which he'll return to the castle. This is called "breaking into the castle."

I have a question… I’ve been playing Heroes for many years, but I don’t really bother with meticulously studying all the nuances of each race, etc. That is, I’ve grasped the basics – from day one, build a lot of heroes, use them to scout the territory, and collect free resources, because the armies will quickly pay for themselves. Capture a secondary town or village faster to generate income there, and in your main town, focus solely on units, preferably building the structure with the strongest monster by the first week. And if you manage to build a Castle – that’s even better…
That is, I don’t care which race I play – the algorithm is the same. But, of course, there are experienced players. They probably play much better (I don’t know, I haven’t played against any of the strong players yet, I really want to test my skills…).
Now, the question: many will agree that in a 1v1 tournament, what you do in the first week is very important. Are there demos (not save files where you have to guess, but actual videos) showing experienced players’ gameplay in the first week? Or the entire battle week? The question arose because some such videos are available on YouTube.com, but there are few of them, and they mostly show the battles themselves. But I’m interested in the development specifically in the first week.
Please provide a link where I can watch or download them. Thanks.

P.S. Thank you – I understand how to split up and build a Castle. I hope the artifacts remain with the hero when he surrenders? Or does he have to transfer them along with the units?

2Predator. This topic is, of course, a mess, but it's still better to ask such questions here:

or here:

They will definitely answer there.

Okay. I'm waiting for answers in the newbie topic.

By the way, tell me, which of the "FATHERS" play online in the evenings? I'd like to crush a couple of local "dads"... :-) If I can... :-)

Okay, I'll off-topic for the last time  I just wanted to get answers from those who play "Player vs. Player" online. Advice from those who just play in single-player is not relevant, as in any other game (single-player is always very different from multiplayer). This is how I explained why I went off-topic… 
