Installation Instructions

Thanks for feedback. I've updated the map. There is now CTA and ~timelimit. Also added new secrets and adjusted some encounters. And there is limiter for good heroes, so you cannot get 27 avatars anymore :)...
In this map, the beginning is the hardest part as you lack strong minions and essential rooms. Knowledge of the lazy way to train Warlocks might be needed to progress.
After a while, once you get your first mistresses and the temple, the map gets way easier and gold starts to be your only issue. Then, once you get enough gems and the torture room, you only grow in strength from there. And oh boy is it needed, considering what guards the enemy Heart.
A few issue if I may: No CTA is painful, especially for the final fight. Also, every single creature guarding the final Heart got bugged inside the Heart room, you might want to lock the doors leading to it. They still fought and got unstuck once I got close, though.
3/5, simple design and very straightforward script, but it kind of works. Difficulty starts at 3-4 and ends up at 1, let's say 2/5 overall.
Knowledge of the lazy way to train Warlocks might be needed to progress. You mean sleeping next to gold? But that takes ages. More than one hour for level.
Not in keeperfx, it's way faster. In this map you don't need to train them to lvl10, lvl 4 is fine and easily doable.
I did that but I'm not sure it's 100% needed.
Patience is key...
It's a slow start which snowballs harder and harder neat the end (I had 27 Avatars and 30+ vampires at the end)
I didn't really find the map hard, since nothing happens if you don't do anything.
3/5 overal, 2/5 difficulty. :)
