it's hard without a portal to the town – I took the scroll, but it's only available from level 35 and requires 100 mana, and leveling up several combat heroes is difficult.

and leveling up several combat heroes is difficult.
The ability to use the city portal spell only from level 35 is a feature of the "Journey" map mod; under normal conditions, it requires only level 20 and 20 mana. I myself used it extensively with Lethos on this map.

(I also struggled with this problem on the "Ice and Flame" map at one time.)

Clean out the /Map directory. The described phenomenon is caused by a mod from another map being applied. In the "Strangers" map, the price of all spells is standard. "Journey" has a similar feature, but it might have been used elsewhere as well.

Okay, thank you for the advice!

I completed the Knight campaign on Veteran difficulty in 206 days. After taking the Tomb of Darkness near the castle and getting the "Sharp Mind" skill, it was just a matter of time. The castle was attacked only once or twice; after that, the danger level was medium or lower, and the AI avoided it.

I had to send Sigmor himself to his death.
But is it even possible according to the map's conditions to have a guild hero killed?

Yes, provided that he is hired in the tavern on the SAME DAY, and in this case, he will lose all his experience and artifacts. The worst part is that the monoliths he placed before will not grant him experience a second time.

Sure, as long as he is hired in the tavern on the same day.
I'll make a few corrections. You have three days to ransom a defeated titular hero. This is stated in the map conditions. I didn't wait the full three days, but the ransom was still possible on the second day.
Xaltotun, and why a Knight, not a Demon?

haven't had much luck with the demon yet (
tried playing as the Necromancer on veteran difficulty - the start is easier than even for the Haven faction - I managed to outpace the AI in hero development).

Good map. I played it with the Undead and the Barbarians.
The Necromancer learned Vampirism at level 5 in the magic school, and I bought Mind Control from a merchant on the map. It was challenging to capture the Demon Castle. Jezebel kept opening portals endlessly. But the Ring of Exile made the task easier for me. And before this map, I considered this artifact a useless trinket.
Orcs can't read scrolls; they are not taught literacy. They can only shout at their minions, so I had to walk around the cities... I had travel spells disabled on the map. I can buy them by spending resources, but I can't use them.
But this moment was even interesting. As a role-playing element.
I had a lot of trouble with the enemy Necromancers – they cast Mind Control on everything that moved. I tried to deploy Cyclops against them. But I didn't deploy these terrible creatures during the castle siege. I like to play until my last unit. And these Cyclops will break through the gates ahead of time with their clubs, and all the inhabitants of the castle will face a very quick end.
Thank you to the author for the excellent map!
I will play it again later with other factions, depending on my mood.

Markel is definitely cheating.
I stopped playing after 100 dragons joined; it became uninteresting.
If you cycle through all the heroes in the tavern in a couple of weeks, you can probably recruit him. In short, Necropolis is probably the easiest faction on this map.

Krusso, try playing as Haven (hero - Rupert). Considering his 2 specializations, your chances of winning will increase significantly + with this hero, the scroll: Portal to Town works.
And the witches' coven is located not far from the entrance to the dungeon.
I tried Rupert as a Warrior. Well, that's just ridiculous! Absolutely useless race, in my opinion, with its counterattack; on this map, the specialization is useless. What second specialization are you talking about? The ballista, yes, 3 shots are cool! The first demon won on the 3rd week; he has upgraded machines that immediately destroyed the gates, and his ballista buried half of my army; that's what I call a specialization!)))) I lasted longer even playing as Dwarves. When I played as Barbarians, there were no attacks at all; they didn't even dare.

I tried Rupert on a Barbarian. It was a complete joke! In my opinion, it's an absolutely useless race with its counterattack; on this map, the specialization is useless. What second specialization are we talking about? The Ballista, yes, 3 shots are cool! The first Demon won on week 3; he had upgraded machines that immediately destroyed the gates, and his ballista buried half of my army. Now that's what I call a specialization!)))) I even lasted longer playing as Dwarves. When I played as Barbarians, there were no attacks at all; they didn't even dare.
I meet all enemy heroes who dare to attack my castle on the approach to my fortress because the shooting towers deal minimal damage to the huge enemy army, the city walls are weak, and besides, they prevent my army's soldiers from launching a preemptive strike against the enemy's forces.
Of course, everyone has their own tactics and playing style. I'm not imposing my opinion on anyone.

krusso, calling Haven a worthless faction and Counterstrike a useless specialization is extremely unwise. But, let's attribute it to your inexperience. The hero Rupert on this map has 2 specializations:
1) this is the ballista - you know about it;
2) increased attack damage with the hero's level. Very useful

I completed it just for the sake of it. On a recruit difficulty, playing as a Warlock, it took 184 days, and they even gave me some kind of record. But it was boring... Tears and the Sabbath weren't needed, and the portal system in the middle of the map seems pointless.
