AuthorDemons way overpowered.
I just faced my first demon and got molested. We were both Lvl 1. =\
Your opponent is an experienced player, he profited of some of your tactical errors :)
Try some of the following:
Recruit 5 farmers and all the rest - for bowmen (around 20)
http://www.heroeswm.com/army.php

In combat, split your farmers into single unit stacks. Also, separate one bowman. As a result, you should have (19~1)+(1~1~1~1~1).

During the settlement, putt your main bowmen stack into the corner, the 1 bowman - right under (above) it. Create a box of 4 farmers to surround these two stacks and to isolate them from immediate gating on a tile net to your bowmen. The 1 remaining farmer is a reserve to close the first killed gap.

Deal with single unit imp stacks with your 1 bowman and hero. Sometimes it is necessary to fire volley with the main bowmen stack.

This tactics works not only with demons, in fact, barbarians are crushed by knights on level 1-2 in the exact same manner =)
I've even got some demonstrative proof for you ;)

One more important detail about demons. You don't need to kill all the gated units to win. Just deal what was originally there. As soon as you do, all summoned creatures will disappear and the Demon will lose the combat.
You can distinguish original and gated creatures in two ways. First is Ctrl+double clicking it. If it isn't original, it will be marked as "Gated".
The second is ATB-bar. Original creatures appear to be in darker colors, than the gated ones.
Yeah, but I'm never using this strategy against a Wizard again. Twenty 15 HP Gargoyles, that's just unreal.
It is real. Everything is real!
Well, this certainly doesn't work with a wizard :)) you'd need ~15 farmers to separate them into 3 stacks, so that s magic fist doesn't kill of the whole one stack.
Or maybe you invent your own way to deal with them ;) Fantasize.
I never lost against Demons. Ithink they are real easy or my opponents where beginners.
The most anoying and almost impossible fight to win is.

Knight vs Elf (low chance of winning for knight)
Elf vs Orc (low chance for winning for elf)

Please post some other combos which are almost impossible to win:)
Both are easy to win =\ Wanna try? Gimme any barbarian and i will kill him. I hope ;)
I mean the combos :) I dont mean a different faction.
krunk get beat up by elfs all the time...
Demon vs Barbarian (very hard for demons, at least at lvl 4)
Knight vs Elf (low chance of winning for knight)
Elf vs Orc (low chance for winning for elf)

The easiest enemy for knight on 1-2 lvl is barbarian.Elf also is not so strong.Unreal enemy is mage,there is no way to kill mage with full mana on 1-2 lvl(its really so,if mage and knight plays good,knight have no chance).Even if mage plays bad there still is 50%on50% chance.also with necro is small chance of winning.On 3rd lvl knight is just exp for enemies)).But with perks he is really hard to kill with 50 archers and 50 knights))
on lev 5 elf always win with other races i you can hit before he kills you its mean luck
I''l wait a few months, until in this game will appear at least one mage with triple mini-artefacts. Barbarians, Demons, Knights... All will cry. =)
for Icefire:
Wait till some Knight will get 9th level of skill+ 9th level and 3rd up. =)
