In half a year, I think the person should have gotten tired of it. As an option – a primitive version with bugs. IMHO.

unique version
I don't remember encountering similar bugs... :rolleyes:

Actually, I'm not as advanced as you might think))) someone here suggested that I simply reinstall the game, BUT then everything will be lost, including downloaded maps, completed games, and the music I added... tell me, how and where can I save all of this?

Create a new folder (in any convenient location/drive), move/copy maps, mods, replays, saves, etc. into it. Then, reinstall the game and move/copy everything back.;)

As far as I remember, saves, replays, settings, and some other information are stored in my documents.
It's always a good idea to back them up.

P.S. Check the scenario in a clean game – without adding all your files (you'll need to add the saves, of course).
It's best to replay the scenario.
Also, try replaying the scenario with codes.
To clarify, quickly use codes to complete all the tasks, get to the desired location, and see if the script works.
If it works, start over legally.

or it would be better to replay the scenario

I've already replayed it more than once....

Thanks guys for the help! I've finished it all. Now I'm playing the next mission, and I'm really annoyed by their constant raids. I don't even have time to buy an army before they start attacking...

Could it be that the turquoise faction is attacking the brown one?! ;) If so, I'll venture to give you a few recommendations.

Something like that, but I’ve already completed it. Now I’m playing as a Wizard.

I couldn't complete it on the first try, naturally, due to the turquoise player's attacks :smile07:. My mistake was that I didn't capture the mines on my territory, I was too protective of my troops, and I didn't want to suffer losses. Because of this, I had too few resources, and Kujin also "developed" very slowly. I started a second time, capturing everything I could and building up my castle. Kujin's experience began to grow rapidly :p. I delayed the battle with the first turquoise player until the very end - I gave him my second castle (formerly brown), and I stayed in the first one. As soon as I saw that the purple players on my side had "Danger: low," as did the turquoise player, who at that point was no longer leaving his acquired castle, I attacked them. After successfully defeating them, I sent the former orange leader out to sea to collect gold, the former brown leader to guard his home castle, and I went to visit the turquoise player, whom I successfully defeated :smile13:. I gathered a small army from two castles, as did the turquoise player! Where did he get :smile42: such a large army every week from a single castle?! Although his danger level was low, he still had as many cyclops every week as I had left after two battles with the purple players and gathering troops from two castles - at first, around 26, then 29, then 31, he was only behind in pao-cai and those of a lower level. In short, I was just wasting my time on the turquoise player; I could have dealt with Letos, the last of the purple players, who had settled near the green player's garrison, a long time ago.
As soon as I sailed to Letos, and I had been defending the territory near the brown castle for about 3 weeks - I don't like giving up my positions - the turquoise player immediately appeared in my territory, capturing first the first castle and then the second. By that time, I had already defeated Letos and befriended the green player, and with my new castle and a large army of troops, including creatures of all levels, which turned out to be simply impossible to buy.
As soon as we defeated Letos, we could safely sail to meet the last khan from the turquoise town - a peaceful and calm guy, who welcomed me with open arms after I broke through his garrison. By the way, I came to visit him with one orc, and I sent the rest to the sacrificial pit, just to check if I would get anything, I left the entire army, and I only received a +3 luck bonus.
By the time I landed on the "turquoise island," I had lost only one of the khans. I developed Kujin to level 20, and she had 180 (or 195) mana, along with sandals, which she didn't really need, as she was doing quite well in battles with "Reinforcements" and "General Rage Increase," which increases everyone's stats by +40, and "Local Rage Increase," i.e., she increased it as needed; for example, the rage of blood-eyed cyclops was increased to 100 units! Mana was only needed once when I summoned reinforcements from my castle while standing not far from the well.
While Kujin was at sea, I left one of the khans in her place, who successfully defended my first castle, maneuvering on the verge of battle with the turquoise player - I managed to bring him to the water and put him on a boat when the turquoise player was already breathing down his neck. I sailed to his boat and took the gathered army, leaving him only one trapper. The turquoise player, of course, attacked the weaker one, "defeated" him, and then I defeated him.
Why does the seer's hut show the "Dragon Eye" ring; will Kujin need it in the next missions? By the way, there were about 150-200 portal guardian wyverns, including both green and pao-cai. I successfully defeated them and went to the portal for the ring and gold, of which there wasn't much, and the ring wasn't needed.
Kujin didn't bother with the abandoned ships at all; why would she need them? To collect trinkets and waste her army just for gold, and how much time would it take to sail around them?! But, after defeating the turquoise garrison near the last castle, I decided to return to the former green player, to his island, and visit the "Knowledge/Spellcasting Enhancer" and the "Military Academy" to increase Kujin's stats; by the way, she also visited the stone of knowledge. I only noticed one Silanna tree on half of the brown territory, and it was guarded by 10 emerald dragons.
The main thing in this mission is to know when to retreat from the turquoise player and to hold on to your profits, i.e., your castles, for as long as possible, so that you have enough troops to fight the purple and turquoise players. By the way, the turquoise garrison was quite weak compared to their troops, which were constantly attacking me; there wasn't even a single cyclops in the garrison :smile49:.

Why does the Seer's Hut point to the "Dragon Eye" ring? Will Kujin need it in the following missions?

I'll answer my own question: In the fourth mission, Kujin continues her journey with the "Dragon Eye," and she also has the Turban of Enlightenment and the Chainmail of Enlightenment, which she acquired in this very mission. She has no other artifacts.

A year later, I decided to play Heroes 5 again. At first, I also got stuck in this mission. Then I remembered a trick:
The hero has the Support skill. I apply Support to the centaurs. When they attack a target, the hero also attacks. So, whether it's a ballista or a catapult, the hero's attack destroys it in one hit.
I sit in the castle and, with the first attack through the centaurs, destroy the siege engine. While the enemy breaks through the wall with cyclops, I can damage his troops.
Then the purple hero flees, even though he had more troops during the castle siege.

lol =) great idea =) but why bother, because the computer will first capture all the mines, etc., and only then attack the Castle.
Kujin clears everything around, when we talk to the second leader, we continue clearing and gathering troops (we don't go to the Cyclops).
We keep gathering troops, repel an Orc in the open field who runs to the second Castle (before that, he visits the Fountain/Idol/Baidu, which gives +10% HP), we keep gathering more troops, then we transfer everything to the second hero (I gave Krag, but Tilsek is much better). After that, Kujin stays in the first Castle, gathering troops, and the second hero, from the third Castle, buys his own troops and balances the growth). - We repel everything in the open field. In general, we manage to kill a hero every 2 weeks, with 70+ Cyclops, 250 Earth Daughters, and 100 Wyverns +). It's fun =)
When Kujin has approximately (60 leaders, 300-400 Centaurs, 100 Earth Daughters, about 70 Phoenixes, 20 Bloodeyes, and some Goblins + Warmongers), we go to the Cyclops. We talk to them - the purple faction is activated. First, we eliminate the Dark faction, then the Light faction =) they won't be too eager to attack =). And then everything goes smoothly).
The game lasted 8 months xDDDDD

8 Months makes no sense ) I already sailed away in the second month ) and crushed the blue hero with 18 cyclops and the rest of the army in ascending order; he simply fled the battlefield ) I killed Letos on the first try, but the annoying AI in the 3rd Castle (green) bought up my entire army as soon as I appeared, leaving me with only 400 trappers )))))) But at least I managed to sail to the island where I beat Hotabych and got Retribution+Luck, deleted Education and machines I didn't need (taken for lack of alternatives).

Kujin's build: Blood Rage exp., Aid, Blood Memory, Attack exp. from battles without + Stun Strike (one of the main weapons), Retribution, Advanced Leadership—that's army rally+Battle Euphoria—then Defense exp. (for Letos' reflection), Luck +1, and then Magic Resistance.
And this is how I broke through the second beacon near Hotabych ) 57 Black Dragons.

"Hero" difficulty level.
I acted as fast as possible at the start; here is how to break through in the first week:
First, take the blade bonus +3 attack.
Day 1: capture the wood mine and send only centaurs and orcs into battle (without goblins); after the fight, even about 12-14 will defect to your side ) a small thing, but pleasant )
Day 2: Visit an idol (luck or morale), speak with the chief—waiting a week is complete nonsense ) I managed to get a bunch of things done and build up during that week ), then build centaurs, take Taulan and transfer the entire army and tent to him, then go straight from the city past the centaurs slightly to the right toward the red orcs (old grade); there are about 18 on the hero, they can be killed without losses; pick up the turban and visit +3000 experience. For skills, take Ballista+Machines and upgrade further. In the end, we should get him a rapid-fire ballista (3 shots). Kujin needs Attack+Battle Frenzy+Advanced Blood Rage+Aid, and then Stun Strike ) you can take Leadership if available—that's army rally and Battle Euphoria—and in Attack, then Retribution (+5% attack for every + to morale); the formula is simple: you have 2 levels of Leadership +2 morale, then all troops from one Castle (Faction, race) also +2 = already +4 = 20%. If we visit a fountain, idol, etc., it will be +5; or you can take Expert Leadership, then it will always be +5, or via artifacts. In the end, with Expert Attack + Retribution, we have +40% attack!!! instead of 15 ) And for every successful morale surge on the battlefield, monsters gain rage points ) absolute beauty )
Day 3-4: Taulan kills harpooner dwarves without losses; in the Castle, build/upgrade centaurs and gather them into one squad (stack), then go to the dancers—well, you can't do this without losses, those jerks are too fast and have good defense. I lost 4 centaurs and about 20 or 30 goblins, BUT that's not important; the main thing is to take them now, otherwise it will be hard with building later, and the dancers will get thicker and thicker every week.
On Day 4, build a Town Hall or upgrade goblins to trappers; you can get goblin growth +6. In short, as soon as possible, build money-makers; also, if any trappers are left, split them by 1 (for this, hold SHIFT and divide) + if the crypt defense is weak, you can take it too, but it's better to do that with Kujin. And a tip: don't collect resources from the ground now; do it later, right now you need to capture everything as quickly as possible.
Day 5-6.
Next, break through mercury with Kujin (don't forget to transfer the turban of enlightenment, ballista, and tent), then break through the +1 attack booster without losses using Taulan with his ballista, and use him to break through the elves without losses—I replayed this about 5 times ))) a dancer would reach the centaurs ))) I took two shamans and split them by 1, and used trappers one by one to slow down the dancers.
Day 7: build market/blacksmith/+6 goblins, but don't build level 3 orcs—there won't be enough money to buy them ) chests should only be taken for money, as there is plenty of experience on the map ) I boarded the ship with Kujin at lvl 17 and Taulan was 10 ) Also, the last city has an Altar where you can sacrifice monsters for experience, but that's unnecessary on "Hero" difficulty.
I managed to get Kujin to the stables and killed the red orcs at the outer dwelling without losses; the first time I didn't take the ore and took the outpost in the first week, then I regretted it ) there was a catastrophic lack of ore for cyclops and building the Castle, and no extra money to buy the army either )

In the second week: build the remaining dwellings based on money, but I didn't find any shamans, orcs, executioners, or cyclops until taking the second castle.
And what is VERY important: if you are lucky, in one of the castles on the second level, you will get a battle cry—frightening roar... oh how I love it )))) it's the only thing that saved me )))) It seems you can learn it from level 8, so build and check what was given at level 2 of the guild in the first city.
At the start of the second week, do the following:
Take sulfur with Taulan and his ballista, then Kujin takes 3 types of goblins, then break through precious stones (mine) with Taulan; I split them by 1 goblin trapper (7 cells), 1 stayed alive ))) next take the outpost and hire wyverns there; in the city build a traveler's hut + wyverns, visit +10%. Taulan was given a first aid tent, so Kujin ran to the city for wyverns and centaurs and took the gold mine without losses.
Here is the video of how it happened.

Then I killed the blue elves, then the crystal mine; broke through with Taulan using the ballista and tent. The fight with druids was long; I took wyverns and 6 goblins, endured a series of lightning bolts, then used the ballista to whittle them down to 1 stack where 1-2 druids remained, and then swarmed them with goblins while flying the wyvern back and forth until it fully regenerated ))) so I exited the battle without losses )
Here is the fight with archers ) funny )

And here is another time

http://depositfiles.com/files/jz7ouqt44

In the 4th week, I broke through the garrison; put out Wyverns, centaurs, 2 shamans (one by one to slow down) and 3 trappers one by one to stall the enemy. Losses were about 10 cents, 4 wyverns, but I wasn't upset ) a fully built city awaited me there, while in my first castle by week 4 all dwellings and even the castle were built, only goblins and cents were upgraded; but there, the castle and level 4s were upgraded. Then over a month I cleared everything around the second castle, lost more wyverns to Erls since I attacked them at the end of week 4 with only wyverns +2 upgraded shamans and 4 trappers (as fodder for the shamans); 2 wyverns died. I stalled for a long time so more could regenerate; after that, I had an enlightenment set +45% exp and +15% expert education. In the end, in the second month and 2nd week, the blue hero arrived with 18 cyclops and started running away from me on my own territory )) eventually I attacked, and he fled and didn't bother me anymore )))
Here is the fight with him )
http://depositfiles.com/files/xurcta2ad

Then I sailed to Letos and beat him like this on the first try, didn't bother replaying ) To make it more interesting and difficult )

http://depositfiles.com/files/0nowtkvi2

And then Gork got a taste of it; the AI bought up my entire army ))) while I was running around with hundreds of thousands and nowhere to spend it ) two purples sailed in and landed, but they couldn't get past the dead bodies of the unicorn, fury, and minotaur, so I didn't touch them—too bad to waste time and my level after Letos was already 20 ) Although they were annoying, they moved very slowly ) although essentially they stood in place, and I waited for 2-3 minutes )

Here is the fight with Gork )
http://depositfiles.com/files/pbgwhbtyx

By the way, on the left on the last island there is a +1 defense booster, don't forget it ) Anyway, I finished in the 4th month because I wasted time at Hotabych and on various chests, peasants, and ships at sea; I meticulously collected money that ended up being useless ) Regarding the difficulty of battles for me personally... well, I'd give it 2-3 points out of 5—I mean against flags, not neutrals. The neutrals were the ones who really annoyed me )))))) especially when they split into 4 stacks of archers or druids )

And here is an example of brutality )))) difficulty 5 out of 5 )))))))))))))))))
451 Blood-eyed cyclops, 700+ executioners, etc. ))) But I took them down ) I won't hide that I replayed it 10 times )) each battle lasted 15-20 minutes ))
http://depositfiles.com/files/bqyprzhx4
But at least I immediately leveled up to the required level )))))

Please help! I can't pass this, the purple player keeps defeating me. What should I do? How do I get to the green player?
