I knew it, we were talking about different heroes. I checked again, quickly cleared the dungeons, and then this player with a similar army (with 10 fewer Archdevils) jumped out in front of me. I managed to defeat him, although it wasn't really planned. With the remaining creatures (8 upgraded Hydras, 1 Matron, and a whopping 335 Assassins (survived), plus a couple of Grim Riders from my companion and one extra Black Dragon from her), I managed to break through the garrison, losing only the Twilight Witch. And only then did that hero with an army that's just laughable compared to the one I defeated appear =))). Now I have to defeat her with the remnants of my army. I'll manage it; he's a total noob. It's a pity that the demons drain all the hero's mana, which makes it even harder)))

No, his appearance is also part of the plan; I just killed him on the way to the garrison. :D This mission isn't difficult at all if you know where to go.

I don't claim to be a genius player, and after 10 attempts, I still can't complete the 3rd mission in the Inferno campaign! It's terrible! This elf always defeats me, the city is guarded from above, the dragons destroy my troops, I have little money, and my growth is slow! Oh! What should I do? Please advise! :-)

Pearl, I'm copying my own post.

Hehe! I killed that elf!))) So, I captured the two upper castles and held them. I gave him the lower elven castle without a fight. When I had gathered more troops, I captured the lower elven castle. Since the elf had fewer troops than me, he didn't dare attack and instead went to capture the right upper castle. Agrail overtook him and settled in the right upper castle. Thus, the elf was left without any castles and had nothing left to do but attack me. After a long and hard battle, I finally killed him. By the way, I recommend building a fountain of luck in this castle; it will be useful!

Perl: I also started this mission about 6 times before I read a walkthrough online. It turns out that you absolutely must not capture the lower castle, but it's better to capture the upper left one first. And then quickly develop and capture the upper right one (it's easier when Gilraen isn't home :)). Then the rest is easy.

But I'm having trouble with this mission. It's so frustrating. :( I killed everyone, captured the castles, killed the druids in the center, but the quest still requires me to kill a hero. What should I do? Is this a bug? I have a licensed copy.

How to complete the "Agril's Decision" mission?

I read your post, but it didn't help me. I already know that you shouldn't take the lower castle. The owner is always there. But I can't take the upper right one. It always has an army three times larger. So...

Melanitta
Yeah... develop quickly... and he shows up right away!

Could you please advise on how to complete the first mission as a Necromancer? I reach the exit from the dungeon, and then a demon appears and defeats me. How can I get there while preserving as many troops as possible? Thank you.

I don't claim to be a genius player, and after 10 attempts, I still couldn't complete the 3rd mission in the Inferno campaign!!!!! It's terrible! This elf defeats me in any case, the upper town is guarded by him, the dragons defeat my troops, there's little money, and the growth is small! Oh! What should I do? Please advise! :-)

I captured the lower castle almost immediately and didn't go anywhere until the green faction cleared the way to the mines and the experience-giving tree. When the second hero arrived, I defeated him in two rounds with a "minor" hero with hellish creatures and immediately attacked with my main hero, who had an army of elves. He is highly developed in terms of movement, so I then ran from castle to castle for reinforcements, and eventually won.
The most important thing is that the green faction practically doesn't attack empty castles "without a hero" in the garrison. I periodically hired a hero who was defeated with hellish creatures, and he brought me reinforcements. Then I "sacrificed" him; he was defeated, and in a new location, I bought him again on the first day.

and when capturing the lower castle, didn't the increase in creatures for the opponent bother you?

Didn't the increased creature production for the opponent when capturing the lower castle bother you?

To be honest, I didn't know about these intricacies and played without any worries. Something appeared, I killed it, and that's it. How? Why? - I didn't care.

But in the last game of the campaign, playing as the Devil, I got seriously stuck.

I personally see two ways to complete this mission.
1. Rush, as already mentioned. In general, this is the most correct way, but if it doesn't work, you can try...
2. A long and exhausting strategy against the AI. We wait for 1 week, buy everything we can in our city, quickly capture the first elven city and start building it (it's better to build Ents right away). We wait and accumulate strength. Then, a hero with superior forces will attack us. We surrender the city without a fight and go to another elven city. Everything will already be built there, we buy everything there. They will come after us again, and we surrender the city again and go to the third. And so on in a circle. The AI will divide its army into parts, and sooner or later, we will defeat first one half of its troops and then the other. And AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, KILL THE DRUIDS! They create neutral creatures on the map that join the AI's army.

I was just completing it using the second method, but it's long and tedious, and it requires experience. Moreover, it's so long that I received 72k experience for the final battle. If there wasn't a limit....

P.S. I wonder what difficulty level everyone completed this mission on? I played on Veteran.

Uff...
Switched to the Necromancers.
Has anyone noticed that the entire demonic faction moves at incredible speed, like a sprinter? :eek:

I didn't notice, I'm only playing battles right now :D. The Haven campaign doesn't count!

I completed the unfortunate mission on veteran difficulty (it took me three attempts).
So far, this is the most interesting campaign, as playing as Necropolis is too easy (thousands of skeletons and the Raise Dead spell).

The mission was quite easy. I immediately captured the first Elven town, bought an Elf with a special ability that adds extra damage (at this time, the main hero, with his starting army, recaptured all possible mines and took a scroll – you can guess which one). In the meantime, I upgraded the Elf's Luck and gave him a special ability that deals racial damage to selected mobs. In the end, the main hero leveled up on the large number of enemies that were scattered across the map.
P.S. After defeating the overpowered army, I sent the Elf to the upper right castle.
