After playing a few games as orange I thought that maybe black is also an option for Erythea since you can visit 2 ruins in the first turn and can possibly get a lot of allies turn 1 (if you're very lucky). Well for me it was "just" money and an item that makes my hero fly. I didnt want to just reset and got lucky with some later ruins 2 or 3 times I got 4 dragons in ruins. I also got a lot of heroes. This map is even trickier than others imo, bc I think it is easier for the AI enemies to win back some cities. (which also happened of course) There is still very much room for improvement in this category I feel.
