Finished your capaign and want to say whats on my mind. The plot is really boring and missions totally uninteresting (thats what i felt) - especially the hero only missions. The finishing mission with Kathryn Darkmoon was terrible - almost no place to move and terrain really badly placed, enemies are stupid as hell and easy to kill with just the 3 heroes i used. They were no threat at all (boring...). And the lamest mission was the last i played with Salah din or sth. AI sucks there. When i biuld an expo to the right the enemies attacked it and then just get back to their bases lol instead of attacking my main camp! So i biuld the mine again - so they are going to attack me (i see with the invisible scout) so i cancel the mine which is in progress - and they (enemy) get back!!! That stupid tactic made me mass my forces so that i didn't have to cancel that mine. There was one bigger fight then - they lost and that was the end of the game. Enemy was stupid as hell. Why they didn't attack me from the left side? I seen a road with portals there. 3 mines the enemy had were not used at all! The campaign really sucks! The ending sucks too (the plot)!

Wow! This was a great campaign, almost as enjoyable as Luthien's work and I never thought I'd catch myself saying that!

I suppose what made it for me was the characters. Of course upon seeing that the 'heroine' so to speak was a dark ranger I instantly took a like to it. Dark Rangers are my favorite hero after all >.>

But overall it was simply a fun game. It had some brilliant and sharp writing (particularly in the early maps) and some very enjoyable moments. I particularly enjoyed the 'Pirates of Dark Water' map, especially when I found the dragon roost and started hiring level 10 Blue Dragons :twisted:

I liked the fact that the campaign was tied so well into the Warcraft mythology. I find it amusing (and particularly intriguing) when seeing custom campaigns that seem to have a better grasp of the history of Warcraft then the Blizz campaigns (which, imo, took a big crap on alot of the plot of the first two games)

This was an excellent campaign with some very enjoyable maps. I would say my only complaint (besides the fact that it ended :( ) is that it was a bit to easy at times. Though that isn't nearly as bad as some campaigns which are insanely difficult to the point of hair-pulling.

I... Am speechless... I :shock: JUST :shock: finished the campaign, and i have some feedback for you.
What i wanna say will be split up in 2 parts

The Negative Stuff :(

Do not get me wrong, the campaign was BRILLIANT, but:

Did you go dead along the way? Cos it is very clear that the first missions are much, much better than the later ones. I find the starting missions brilliant, because it was during them, that the plot erupted. However, after the Dalaran mission, things went kinda wrong. The missions are bugged, the new ideas are gone, and the storyline is fading, A LOT! I loved the part where Kathris was exiled, but then she just happen to run into an orc camp? And kill a pit lord? hrmmm.. Very strange. And in that very same mission, i got kinda pissed at those blood elfs, so i just went back (With ONLY Kathris)and killed the entire lot!(?) That just sucks :? .. And the last missions with BOTH parties are lacking in both structure, and story. Kathris looses what makes her special, her wanderer additude, and Salah seems to be missing something, his arrogance. And your maps are also very glictched and bugged. In the last Kathris mission, one of the demon portals were flooded. There were about 100 demons, infernals, ETC stucked around it, and they didnt move. And in the Salah mission, where you must do tasks for The Ragman and Baron Perenolde, i didnt have to use the zombies to clear out the minefield. I just send my 2 heroes into it, cos' the mines didnt damage me at all. And when i managed to get into the castle, i saw that it was flooded in the same way as the demon gate! And in the last Salah mission, i left the PC for 2 hours after i had attacked for the first time, and when i came back, NOTHING had happened. My base was untouched, the enemies havent attacked it. I... Am speechless... I :shock: JUST :shock: finished the campaign, and i have some feedback for you.

The positive stuff :)

I think that this is without doubt (one of) the best campaigns i have played, and belive me, i have played at lot! In the start i was like: "omg... not another noobz0r thief campaign". But i was quickly corrected! Your ability to create such an intruiging and fetching storyline amazes me! And your massive vocabularie also completely took me by surprise! Plus, you MUST be a WC History fan, like me, sinec your maps are 100% faithful to the Warcraft Past and Present. Your characters are very realistic, and (once again) i was STUNNED by your vocabularie! Not any comments like: "OK man, lets go", unlike some other campaigns (Right Darky28?). I was campaign-making myself, but i think i will wait for a while, just until people have forgotten yours :P. The maps are detailed and VERY well terrained, and i was amazed of the difference in them. Some were hero maps (just walk around kill everything). Some of them were melee maps, where you had to build a base. And then, some of them was a bit of everything! I was personally hoping for a liiiitle bit of romance between Bjorn and Kathris, but the way it ended was much more intruiging! (Is it a coincidence that the Panda Brewmaster shares name with the revenant in the last mission of Salah Al-Din? And wasnt it a revenant that ran into Bjorn at Dalaran?) Also, are you historically interested? In the real world i mean? (Salah Al-Din - Saladin??). You also prove, how good music and music Themes can drastically amplify the players emotions. I :!: MUST :!: recommend this to my m8's. BRAVO!

Really, your campaignmaking skills are phenomenal! You only have a few things to straighten out, then you could make money on this kind of thing. I salute you, seeing as this is without doubt the most spectacular campaign i have played so far!

So.... the best mapper ever is here! I'have already played both Cryptrobber and Tales of the Warsong Clan... their are two of the best campaign i've played!

I've found only few bugs (simply due the new version... for exemple, the Altar of Storm in Chapter 5 of Tales of Warsong Clan, allow me to create more than one Ac'Ul - Shadow Hunter...).

Diskordjah, you are my model of mapper!!!

But.... STRAGGLERS Campaign????? I've an old version, with all map disjoined, and RoC version!!!! =__= When we can download a new version? ^___^
