Well, Death is a slightly overpowered faction, especially regarding necromancy... Pandor, vampires will be more useful than earth, fire, and air elementals. Water elementals aren't always available.

Aren't elementals comparable to vampires in terms of level? Nature has Unicorn, Griffin, and Medusa (Hive) at level 3.
P.S. Elementals are weaker than 3rd-tier creatures but stronger than 2nd-tier ones.

Elementals of the 3rd level! Otherwise, what level are we talking about? What is this level called "worse than 3rd rank, but better than 2nd"? And it is precisely they that are summoned, not griffins and...

They will appear, maybe not on the first turn, but they will appear anyway.

Elementals are 3rd level! Otherwise, what else could they be. What kind of level is "worse than 3rd rank, but better than 2nd". And it's specifically them that are summoned, not griffinsThe point is exactly that: 1st-level summoning magic is on the first floor, 2nd-level on the second, 3rd-level on the FOURTH, and 4th-level on the fifth floors of the MageGuild.
I don't remember which level these neutrals belong to (in the editor), but the fact that the summoning of elementals was placed on the 3rd floor of magic (intermediate) is an indisputable fact....
P.S. Try comparing the stats of elementals with representatives of the 2nd and 3rd levels ... they clearly don't reach the 3rd, and aren't even close to the second

Summoning is one thing, but turning the undead is another. You can create a huge vampire population with just one battle:smile24:.... Moreover, vampires are strong and regenerate health, so you have to think: "How can I send an extra hundred vampires back to the afterlife!?"

from the second tier to elementals, only the golem is closer.

I like nature and order:)

You're wrong, little one. If you play Haven correctly, you can cause a lot of trouble:smile02:

If you play all factions correctly, you can cause just as much trouble as Haven.

Chaos Thieves aren't bad, but still :smile18:, and Warlocks are really something.

Chaos Rogues aren't bad, but still :smile18:, and Warlocks are awesome.

Are all Chaos creatures bad, or just the Rogues?

Aren't Warlocks from Chaos too?:smile29:
And what about Chaos Druids, are they terrible?:smile29:

P.S. Think before you speak.

I also have a fondness for order. And I respect the light factions: Nature, Life, Order... But of these, I consider only Life to be truly balanced.

The light factions are always strong, but playing as them is usually harder than playing as the dark factions... that's why all beginners love the dark factions; I haven't seen a single game where playing as the dark factions is harder than playing as the light factions... but it seems to me that the light factions have more potential... Of the light factions, I respect Life, but I love Nature))) Order is the most overpowered faction, even more so than Death... Magic is very versatile; there are plenty of ways to deal damage, summon creatures, and cast blessings... but they definitely lack a way to remove negative effects? Congratulations, you've lost... Hypnosis is the key.

I like the same race in all parts of the game – ELVES, NATURE, SYLVAN, and so on.

If you play all factions correctly, you can be just as effective as Haven.

Sorry, but I already know that all factions are good (except for Sylvan – that’s just my opinion), she just happens to be playing as Haven, so I decided to cheer her up just in case:smile03:

Haven is a very strong faction; tactics combined with Haven magic is a formidable force. You will inflict minimal damage on Haven armies, while they will reward you with bonus damage, and after the battle, they will restore those they didn’t manage to heal during the fight.

Please explain. What's wrong with it...?
Honestly, have you tried to figure it out?

Life is a very strong faction; tactics + Life magic is a terrifying force. You will inflict minimal damage on the Life armies, while it will reward your army with bonus damage, and after the battle, it will restore those it didn't manage to heal during the battle.

Exactly. If the Angels have attack 60 and defense 58, then tremble:D
And with 44/38 for the Crusaders, it's just...
