To be honest, I struggled to understand the meaning of the phrase...

A link/image (screenshot) confirming what was said.

So, has anyone managed to defeat the Fortress yet?

Dear ANGELzz! Please stop speaking in riddles. What did you mean when you talked about defeating a Fortress: capturing one of the castles of that type, or a complete and unconditional victory over the Fortress faction? Sincerely, Gur

oh, not a Fortress, but a Stronghold – that’s what I meant, complete and unconditional.

Actually, it's impossible to pass through there. After 7 days, the heroes die. Both paths are blocked by border guards, a purple one and a brown one. I couldn't even find a way to pass through in the editor =[br][/br]
And in general, I didn't like the abundance of "hidden" objects right away. It's impossible to find that brown guard without the editor or a random click on its tile.

And the gnomes can be easily defeated with a ballista or a tent + cart.

Zybr!

It is possible to complete. In my opinion, the abundance of "hidden" objects is one of the most interesting features of this map.

Good luck with the walkthrough,
Gur

ZybrIf you spend time building a campfire on the shore, you won't have time to capture the castle in 7 days. Also, the lower hero needs to obtain the shield from the brown guard and use the shield to pass the guardian of the question...

the lower unit cannot pick up the shield because of the border guard (there is no tent). And the upper unit (the one that runs away from the Fafnir with the Titans) gets stuck after the ship on the swamp. The campfire isn't really needed, but what's the point...

In reality, it's not as simple as it might seem at first glance; the map is recommended only for professionals, as others simply won't be able to complete it.

Zybr Yes, there's a tent there; look more carefully!

gets stuck after the ship on the swamp.

What does "gets stuck" mean? He actually reaches the tent; search around the bushes.

Hmm... honestly, I have no desire to wander around the bushes. If the entire map requires only straining your eyes and not your brain, then, in my opinion, the map is simply silly.

Oh, after three attempts in the editor, I finally managed to "see" the passage. Hmm, I used to create such "complications" myself, but it was so long ago that I'm almost ashamed to remember it.

No, there aren't actually that many such places; there's just the right amount, and the fun will really start soon.

Well, I explored a bit at the beginning. To reach the village, you need to wander through the bushes; to reach the dungeon, you need to wander through the bushes; to pass the guard asking for a shield, you need to see the brown border guard in the smoke and the infamous shield; after crossing over to the Inferno castle, to continue, you need to find a teleport, which is naturally hidden by the Inferno castle itself...
I don't know what you consider a large number, but, in my opinion, this is it.
Well, never mind, it seems like this argument is pointless =[br][/br]
p.s. Pandora's Box is a great XL map. It's quite difficult, especially if you set a high difficulty level. Although, it wouldn't hurt to remove flight and the portal.

Zybr Could you please share a link to this map?

ANGELzz, it seems to be included in the standard set of maps for Conflux, and maybe even for The Restoration of Erathia...

Well, never mind, I've attached the map.

What nonsense, there's nothing complicated about it, tons of resources, and enemies that are easily defeated? It's just a typical, ordinary map...
