I only play on the computer; I don't have time, and some maps take more than a week to complete...
Yes, I think so too, but I still hope that at least someone manages to reach 30 knowledge points sometimes.

I think getting 30 knowledge points is quite achievable. A lot also depends on the artifacts and the presence of education.

Well, I always choose attack and defense, and there's really nothing to debate here – defense is better. You can always take down an opponent, but how do you counter an opponent with a larger army? The answer is defense, which also helps preserve as many creatures as possible in battle. Attack gives a 5%, 10%, or 15% damage increase, while defense provides twice as much – a 10%, 20%, or 30% damage reduction.

You need to upgrade the defense of the Mages and Necropolis – one faction will overwhelm everyone with spells, and the other will raise all the fallen. It’s better for the other factions to focus on attack.

Defense is the best. Defense reduces damage by 30%, while attack only increases damage by 15%.

I once voted for defense, but that's not quite right. It all depends on the faction you're playing as (and the overall situation). For Necropolis, for example, defense is better. But when playing as Haven, getting an attack bonus is a huge advantage, especially considering the great tactics and ranged attacks! And so on, there's a lot to discuss here.

so, some races need defense, while others need attack.

In my opinion, Attack is better.

So:
1) For Necropolis – defense
2) For Academy – 50% defense, 50% attack
3) Elves also 50% defense and attack
4) Fortress – defense
5) Humans – attack (their hero is built for defense)
6) Inferno – defense (it’s very weak, but their attack is decent)
7) Stronghold – attack (since their units are built entirely for defense)
8) Stronghold – they need both ;)
P.S.: Based on all this, the conclusion is: defense is preferable.

7) Dwarves, attack (since their units are entirely focused on defense).

So, their not-so-large damage will increase by 15%, and what? The tactic provides little benefit, and shooting is almost useless, except perhaps for fire arrows. But reducing the damage received by 30% + additional skills, considering that they already take little damage, can turn tanks into super tanks.
