      ​@@YurisSayuri I also feel like there was less time, I also remember not being able to develop the town much. I'm not sure if Dungeon was there or not, what I do remember was that you couldn't see inside other towns... Perhaps the winning condition was to capture one of the towns and Necropolis was way easier, idk

      My demo was for sure with both enemies, and the time limit was one month.
      Only castle was available, and interestingly it had the music of the stronghold. I love this music so much, still my favorite from the whole game. I was so confused by the change of music in the final game, I exchanged the music of stronghold with castle by renaming the MP3 files.

Took me a while to realise that populations reset one day 1 rather than semi-randomly as 10 year old me thought at first. Although the Mac Demo didn't have the time limit, oddly enough.

    Ohw I played this a lot. The randomization was pseudo random, so I remember you always got Galthran as your starting hero, which made it easy as a newbie to win because necromancy helps so much on this map. I remember you could explore the island in 1 week, just in time for the necropolis to attack, then you could easily take them back because you just crushed their main army.

    Nice playthrough! One thing I didn't understand is why you didn't score in the 490's. You got the grail so that should have given you the extra 50 points. Not sure if that's just how the HD edition is or if something else happened.

  • @VishyKc
    @VishyKc 11 месяцев назад +2

    Thank you very much, so enjoyable to watch all those single player maps. Ascension was great too, I can only win those maps if lucky to get a grail or using Conflux on HD edition. Also, I love that you're playing fair, not using some crazy Luna firewall strategies or broken magic patterns to exploit AI's way of playing. Explanations are gold here
    What are your thoughts on playing those old SOD, ROE and other maps using HOTA mod? Is it more balanced and fair? I was always wondering would you do something different if you played this map using HOTA? AI is cheating a lot in SOD (grail, knows where you are on the map without exploring etc.)

    • @Norovo
      @Norovo  11 месяцев назад +3

    Also, I see you tend to neglect re-claiming mines (such as the goldmine in this video) is there a tactical element to that, or just an oversight? (it's impossible to keep track of everything, but I think you do a great job!)
