I was a little surprised when the army started to disappear rapidly. When I realized that I didn't have enough strength to capture the city in the Dungeon, I started over and, without hesitation, headed there. Bursting in and giving the brown hero a good beating, I moved the entire elven army to guard the gold mine. I hired demons and started building up my forces. In the second week, a neighbor came to congratulate me on settling in :). If I hadn't been building up my defenses (I specifically gathered wood, knowing its scarcity), I could say that I would have had to restart the game. Barely repelling the attack, I bought myself two weeks. During this time, I developed to the point of having Cave Lords, which I jokingly call my favorite unit. However, there were only three of them in the squad. Above, I discovered that two heroes had met. One of them went further into the Dungeon, and the other, empty-handed, ran away. I immediately realized what to do, bought everything I could, and, having accidentally visited an idol beforehand, attacked first. This was the most difficult battle of the entire mission. At the end of the battle, I had nothing left but Cave Lords. Gathering a small army, I emerged on the surface to the east. Moving north, I found a weak hero and a poorly developed city. After defeating the first and capturing the second, I, as usual, built it up to a magistracy. After capturing the gold mine, I solved the main problem. A couple of weeks later, hiding in the demonic city, I repelled another attack. Besides 3 devils and 54 Cave Lords, there was nothing left. Recovering my losses, I discovered another enemy hero above. I had 75 Cave Lords, 15 devils, and 31 Nightmares. The enemy was a significant threat. He had already taken a city with mines from me and was moving towards the entrance. Urgently evacuating everything I had, I moved north. Turning the dragons into twilight dust (Agrael was right, as always; he really didn't have time :)), I made my way to the exit. My appearance was unexpected, and after losing 40 demons, 76 imps, and 20 Nightmares, I cleared the map. :) Difficulty: Veteran.
