Alliance of Light
Judging by the reviews of "Heroes of Might and Magic 7", this campaign does not cause any difficulties for the players. Consider her main missions.
- "Unbridled insolence". This mission is pretty simple. When passing it, it is important not to rush to capture the enemy people. First you need to free the territory that is located around the city and only after that start the attack. Our hero in this campaign is Thomas Wolf. It is best if he is endowed with traits such as virtue and leadership. There is also a sense in increasing the speed of Thomas' movements. The fact is that, being on the third map, you will have to hurry up pretty much. All other decisions the player can make based on their preferences.
- "Blind Instruments of Fate". This mission, judging by the reviewsusers, is the easiest in the game. The enemy is not here. However, the player should be aware of some nuances. After capturing the two forts, Imoril will be taken from him (this is a new heroine who must go through the remaining two missions). That is why from the very beginning it is worth giving all the troops to her and fighting all battles with her.
- "Praising Freedom". In this mission, a new hero appears - Belashi. He will also move to the last scenario. It is advisable for Thomas to have time to pump this hero, having reached the orc parking lot, which is located east of Hammerfall, as early as possible.
- "The Feast of the Gods". In this campaign, this mission is the last one. In it, the hero will have to face huge crowds of the enemy. Thinking about something and planning something in this case will not work. In this mission, another hero appears - a magician.
Twilight Odyssey

The main task of the user is to prevent Wislot from dying. We go north and find a unicorn there, which will become a horse for the elf. We continue to move north, focusing on the magic stones. Here we meet the elf Danan, who will give a new task - to build a ship. In the city located in the north we find gold. For it at a nearby shipyard you can buynew ship. Wislot joins the sylvans to help them escape this island. But for this you will have to overcome the whirlpool and win the battle against the Cyclopes who live on the cliff. After that, you can safely set sail.
- The main task of the second mission is to prevent Wislot and Danan from dying. These heroes need to swim to the island, which is called the Dragon Mist. And for this you have to break through the blockade of the orcs. A visit to the Shantiri obelisks that are scattered throughout the island will help in this.
- In this mission, Dana and the new hero, Siprael, are in danger. The Silvans were suddenly overcome by a strong apathy. Wislot will have to save his friends from her. To do this, you should examine the island and understand what caused such an ailment. In this case, you will have to capture the elven city, adding shaldan pirates to your army. But here comes a new challenge. Pirates stole a relic - the Heart of the Dragon, which is a precious artifact. By returning it to its owner - the lord of the Duchy of the Wolf, you can add sword masters to your battles. To do this, we find the pirate camp and take the artifact from them. As you move around the island, thorny bushes come across on the way of the hero. It is their berries that are the main cause of apathy in sylvans. To heal friends, you will need to burn all the bushes.
- In this mission you have to complete the following task. It consists in freeing the minds of beastmen and orcs from the magician's spell. To remove the spell, our hero will have to defeat the guards and release the prisoners. After that, it willfight with the leader of the magicians, who decided to destroy the entire archipelago. This mission is linear. The hero will have to beat enemies and hire troops. The position of his targets is indicated on the mini-map.
