Biara appears around day 30-40, depending on the difficulty level. If she doesn't show up after that time, you can safely restart the game; the scripts in this mission are clearly poorly written. I saw somewhere a bizarre suggestion to save at the very beginning and then skip 40 turns to make sure the script isn't lagging and Biara does appear. If she does, everything is fine; load the save you made on the first day and continue playing.

What kind of nonsense is that?

In 40 turns, the enemies will capture all the garrisons. Perhaps, in version 1.41, you can also take Ents out of the garrison. I haven't tried. Only in version 1.5 did they join the army on their own. I didn't even notice them right away.

No, not taking them from the garrison, but rather they join on their own. I didn't notice them right away either. Moreover, they join after recapturing each of the garrisons captured by the enemy.

Regarding Ents, I thought it was a bug when they suddenly appeared for me. By the way, I think trying to kill 20-30 Dungeon Lords for a map is suicide! :smile42:

In my opinion, in this mission, you should first secure the sawmill, the mine, and 1-2 quarries, and a few dwellings. You can also take a Fortress. There isn't much you can build in the town. Therefore, you don't need many resources. You also don't need many dwellings – you won't have enough money to buy troops. And then, try to quickly secure as many upgrade buildings as possible – they will help you in completing the following missions. You need to make the most of the time before Biara arrives.

That's what I'm saying – "I saw some weird advice somewhere."
I haven't done it myself, but maybe it will help someone?

I don't know how likely it is for a buggy script to trigger in different versions. Biara appeared for me on the first try. I played version 1.5.

I don't know about the probability, but I played versions 1.0 and 1.41. Biara appeared as she should. Maybe the main problem is that you need to fulfill the mission requirements.:confused: Or it's a licensing issue.:confused:

I just finished playing this mission in 1.5 (I wanted to see the elf with a ballista and chaos magic). And I managed to repel all attacks on the garrisons. As a result, first the red player appeared (as a turn indicator), and on the next turn, we finally captured the first garrison (a human army arrived, with over 10 cavalry units). On the following turn, Briara entered my territory, and the "Hold the Line" objective was completed (although the "repel the garrisons" objective remained incomplete). During this time, I managed to visit all the upgrade locations and defeated Briara in the field, without waiting for her to reach the castle.

My "Hold the Line" quest was completed as soon as Biara appeared, even before she reached the border. I didn't find her on the map right away – she's small, like a fly. Alan, you probably encountered a minor bug that doesn't affect the outcome. Ideally, the computer shouldn't have attacked the garrison after she appeared.

Well, that's correct. The "Hold the Border" quest implies holding it until the red player arrives. And unfortunately, after Briara's death, it's no longer possible to capture the garrisons.

I only encountered a glitch on the easiest difficulty. Because of this, I switched to the highest difficulty, "Hero," and the carnage began. It wasn't easy to hold the line. They came with an army larger than on the "Warrior" difficulty! But I still won and defeated Biara without any problems:smile13:

I've been struggling with this mission for a very long time. I installed patch 1.3, but I still can't complete it. It's been 3 months, and the Necromancer hasn't attacked even once (but of course, the army on the border is strong). I haven't even seen Biara. What should I do next? Please help!:smile05:

Kalipsochka, if you've already installed patch 1.3, then proceed further – install patches 1.4 and 1.5. In any case, you'll need to start the mission again through the campaign start menu. I completed this mission twice in versions 1.41 and 1.5. I didn't encounter any glitches. However, your phrase "the Necromancer never attacked (but of course, the army on the border is strong)" raised my suspicion. I didn't keep an army on the border; instead, I tried to conquer as many stat-boosting locations as possible. First and foremost, I focused on magic and attack. I generally try to get the maximum possible benefit from each mission to make the subsequent missions easier. Perhaps the game starts glitching because
