A mage's army controlled by a knight, advantages:
The mage has defense, attack, and leadership with a 2% drop rate, while the knight has 15%, 10%, and 15%.
Very good bonuses like ballistics, archery, resilience, and empathy.
The knight usually gets light magic, which the mage always has in the guild.
Stats go into attack and defense, which is very important for light factions.
The artifact shop can be used to supplement missing skills (although maybe level up twilight?) and knowledge, or to enhance attack potential.
Disadvantages:
Lack of mini-artifacts.
Gameplay focuses on the late game.
Chaos and summoning are not useful.
Hmm, and I think that's all.

Well, you could just as easily take an Elven Winghael, for example; he just has low strength, as most of his strength went into knowledge.

Lack of mini-arts.

that they can be created by a Mage and troops can be transferred to the Knight.

It's easier for a knight to take Vengeance, and yes, an elf spends a lot of stats on Knowledge. Heaven has a hero who is probably better than Wingael in general, hmm, Mive.

Well, about two weeks ago, I was playing with humans, and Axel had about the same level, with 20 mana, 2 spells, 11 defense, and the rest went into attack, so Axel managed to cast mass haste and mass stone skin (he didn't have Divine Power), prayed, and activated Watchtower on the paladins. After that, I became interested in whether it is possible to make the hero's participation in combat more active, given that there are no Knowledge boosts on the map or very few.

Are you sure?

Well, about two weeks ago, I was playing with some people, and Axel had roughly the same level, with 20 mana, 2 spells, 11 defense, and the rest invested in attack. That's why Axel managed to cast mass haste and mass stone skin (he didn't have enough mana for God's Power), prayed, and activated Watchful Presence on the paladins. After that, I became curious about whether it's possible to make the hero's participation in battles more active, given that there are no knowledge boosts on the map or very few of them.
