Does the scenario (Battle of Prestim) start at all or the game fails to load or crashes?If it starts,are the starting sides all right (Krshan,Earl Raman, an Orcish Warlord and 2 Orcish Warriors)?In that case is the game still playable?If yes,what happens at turns 6,8 and 15?

Spoiler:

(At turn 6,the friendly Orcish Warrior is to return with an archer and a Wolf Rider.At turn 8, a group of nagas led by a Naga Myrmidon will come to help.At turn 15 Krag Kumbha will come to help with 2 bodyguards.)

Yes it is quite hard,harder if you hadn't managed to save the drake in the scenario "'Heart' of the Mountains".But you have no hurry,there are 45 turns.You also don't need to keep the drake leader and the Orcish Slurbow alive.

Spoiler:

The enemy units that are most dangerous are the Orcish Assassins and Orcish Slayers.You need to take them out first.Healing poisoned units quickly is also important.In any case Dwarvish Lords are the most needed.And at least 2 Gryphons needed to capture enemy villages outside the fort walls to cut off the income of the main leader.

I had framed this scenario in this way to point out that Borstep is the strongest orcish city.However if it is too hard in this state the following changes can be made:
a. Increase starting gold of player and allies
b. Reduce starting gold of enemies
c. Increase number of turns
d. Reduce number of assassins and slayers
e. Provide reinforcements to the allied sides
Please select the one(s) which suits you the best,but keeping in mind that this scenario must remain challenging and Borstep should live up to its reputation!

That was a bug.I have uploaded the scenario in its new balanced bug-free form.Please update your add-ons and it will be all right.

[chak_abhi]

If anyone has a problem with a game error in the scenario "Battle of Prestim",I would like to tell that I have removed a bug which might have been causing it.Please update your add-ons and it is likely you will sail smoothly through the rest of the campaign.

[chak_abhi]

2 more scenarios (22nd and 23rd) are ready and have been posted.Hope all of you enjoy them.

[chak_abhi]

24th and 25th scenarios are done and have been uploaded.

I see that you're making a campaign with a huge number of scenarios (29). I'm not trying to disturb you, but... Are you sure that after this long amount of scenarios the history is strong and the balance of the scenarios is well? If I can give you a council I'll say that you can make the same history in two campaigns (like chapters) for make it easier to balance and work. I'm now in scenario 7 and I'm really liking it

About the balancing of the scenarios,I can only say that I have play-tested all the completed scenarios in NORMAL difficulty and balanced them accordingly.To avoid such problems on the HARD difficulty,I have minimally increased the difficulty from NORMAL both in amount of starting gold for player and opponents as well as the number of turns.If anyone feels any scenario is too easy or too difficult I can rebalance it.
As for the history,to avoid conflict of dates I have set the timeline well after the campaign "Son of the Black Eye".Regarding history of the far-north there is little hint in the mainline campaigns and so I had made up some facts,especially regarding the foundation of Senne and Dorset.The information of Borstep has been taken from the add-on campaign "The Founding of Borstep" by beetlenaut.The dates may be rearranged if any conflict arises with any mainline campaign.

As for dividing the campaign into 2 chapters,I will keep this in mind.Let me finish the campaign at first,following which I will study all the suggestions provided in this forum and take the decision.

Thank you for taking the time to play this campaign,which is the first I have written.

I had removed a bug few days ago which might have been causing the error.Please update your add-ons and see if the problem is solved or not.
If it persists please answer the following questions:
1.What version of Wesnoth you are using?
2.What difficulty are you playing in?
3.Did you manage to save the friendly orc in the scenario "16_Unusual_Ally"?
4.Does the scenario fail to load due to the error?
5.If it loads despite the error does it create problems in turns 6,8 or 15?Please write in details what events occur in those turns.

Please let me know as early as possible.

Hi, in "Swamps of Desolation", I lost, when Sandrom dies. But it is not, in the objective. You should put a crown, in the leaders, to protect them better.
