You're a bit mistaken; nothing like that ever happened.

and overall, it's just great.

I don't know, I'm certainly not an expert, but it seems to me that giving Kirry in SoD and playing Stronghold yourself is a bigger gift than external dwellings for horses etc. :) As far as I know, Rampart is among the strongest castles (Ramp, Dungeon, Castle) in SoD, not counting imba Necros and Flax. Tower and Stronghold are considered weak, and often if they are played, it's against each other. Anyway, you gave away a cheater hero and a super castle, took a sketchy Barb that depends heavily on respawn, and now you're unhappy with the balance :) idk :)

If I had been given 3 Dragon Utopia in 2 days' march from the capital with many very useful artifacts, I would have won easily even as Gurnisson

Then from your words the conclusion is obvious - there's no need to play CMD, since everything depends on who the Dragon Utopia are closer to :)

I would like to suggest a challenge with a specific save file.

The task:
With minimal losses, using the army that Valeska has, capture the Portal of Glory. A satisfactory result would be if not a single Archer is lost. And whoever manages to preserve more units will be even better.
If Valeska's morale drops, do not use her in battles with the guardians of the Hideout and in the Hideout itself. If fighting against neutral creatures, those who want to can continue playing, and those who want to can reload the save file.
In a real game, I didn't try to capture it in the first week and lost a lot of units fighting the guardians. After experimenting, I managed to capture it.

Please, Heroes players, let me know what results you achieve.

Thank you for your attention!

I can't upload the save file, but if anyone is interested in the challenge, please contact me: 482071082 - I'll send it via ICQ.

Tried it out just for fun. It turned out like this. I don't feel like improving it.

Dirty, let's have a walkthrough of this map!!!:smile20: I think after that, Inferno's popularity will increase sharply!:smile13:

Try it yourself first. A little imagination and effort, and you'll succeed. I played the battle against the Nagas twice, and against the Dendroids four times. And even then, I don't rule out that the Scorpion might have done better in an online game. :)
As for popularity, it's a matter of taste. Many players try to get to the black map with a pair of Castle and Rampart, which requires very little brainpower. I suggest a more creative approach, and you'll succeed with any faction. ;)

Pasha, when you first joined the World of Heroes, you played with me, and I had a similar situation – I took the Angel’s Niche on the 1st starting army without any niches. There was a big discussion about it back then. But what’s the catch here?
