Considering that your main troops early in the demo are level 2 or less units, and considering that there aren't 'human' (or dwarfes, or elves) units of level 1 in the map, yes, it's virtually useless. Yeah, I know robbers and peasants are level 1 creatures, but the peasants are nearly garbage (not so much as in HoMM II, I know

), and robbers... Well, there aren't so much robbers in the map (the only robbers that can be considered as a strong force are those wich stands in the hill near between the two beachs).
