The bug might occur if you don't return the defeated garrison. If that doesn't help, you can also use a cheat code for victory (in my opinion, there's nothing unfair about it in case of a bug).

I tried returning them, but it didn't help. I also thought about using a cheat code, but I decided to replay the map. In fact, this time the development went even better. I maxed out Dark Magic, learned Blind and Dominate for the mages, and achieved a defense of 10 without any artifacts. I also have expert Logistics. Overall, everything is good. Just now, a single garrison attacked, and I successfully repelled them. I hope Biara shows up this time as she should. If not, then I'll have to use a cheat code.

It’s quite simple to lure her into your territory by drawing your troops away, and then corner her at the crossroads.

Well, I replayed this damn mission on Recruit difficulty. This time, Biara appeared on the 3rd day of the 2nd week of the 3rd month, as she should. During this time, I leveled up a secondary hero. I was lucky; Letos appeared in the tavern! I maxed out his Chaos magic to Expert, Expert Unstoppable Magic, and Arcane Wave. I also bought the Robe of Sar-Iss from the artifact shop, and before the battle with Biara, I visited the Tower of Mages and learned Armageddon and Explosion. By that point, Letos had 22 in Spell Power. With 22 in Spell Power, I only got Rai'lag in the last mission for the Warlock, but here, in the first mission, I have this beast, Letos! :D Anyway, I put Uncle Faidan in the Castle and went with Letos to beat up Biara.

But she just stood there like a statue and wouldn't move, the pest! I even put Faidan and his army in the Castle, but it didn't help

The first time I played, the event happened on the specified day (scripted), and there wasn't this problem. Now, when I get to the 5th campaign, I'll check again. But honestly, out of all the base campaigns in Heroes 5, I liked this one about the ranger the least.

Did you play on Recruit difficulty the first time? Likewise, the campaign about the ranger is my least favorite, with the exception of the last mission with the endless resurrection of Nicholas.

Was this your first time playing on Recruit difficulty? Likewise, the Ranger campaign is also one of my least favorites, except for the final mission with the endless resurrection of Nicholas.

Yes, I always play on Recruit, or in Heroes 4, I also play on the easiest difficulty for many years. The game should bring pleasure and positivity, not cause stress :smile44:

Therefore, the whole point of tactical strategy games is to come up with tactics and strategies, and not just take everything available and mindlessly destroy everything without understanding the game's mechanics.

There's plenty of that, even on Recruit difficulty.

You don't need to think much on the hero in many missions. And killing an enemy hero with lower stats and a smaller army shouldn't be considered a tactical move.

I agree that the game should be enjoyable; it seems you just haven't outgrown this level of difficulty yet. I myself played Heroes 3 and 5 on Normal/Warrior difficulty for a long time. But now, I'm no longer interested in playing at this level because my gaming experience is now at least equal to the Veteran difficulty. :) I vary between Veteran and Hero. :))

The whole point of tactical-strategic games is to come up with tactics and strategies, and not just take everything and destroy everything automatically, without understanding the game mechanics.

By the way, yes, I agree. In the last mission for Raileigh, I found it extremely interesting to complete the mission without losing a single assassin or dragon until the very end. Oh, and how many battles I had to replay, how many tactics I had to change to achieve such a result!

I'm still learning and getting used to it; I've only been working on the 5th installment for 3.5 months.

I think it's just as engaging as the 4th game, which I played for about 7 years.
