Campaign: Only Death Behind ~v1.0.3~
Should work on 1.11 and 1.10 (though the latter may miss some portraits during dialogues). An undead campaign and a sequel to a previous campaign by me, called "The Flight of Drakes" (though i guess it's all right to play this as a standalone campaign). Much like the previous one, this campaign is relatively short and simple (7 battles and 1 interlude), yet more plot-oriented (a bit more talk and a bit less action then usual).
Three ghosts have escaped from the land of the dead. Yet they don't remember anything about their past.
- All levels are complete, as well as the plot itself. The campaign should now be playable to the end.
I'm expecting myself to produce the third campaign in the series, sort of a trilogy.
Will be glad to listen to different sorts of balance suggestions, as it suddenly turned out to be harder this time, not sure why.

Re: Campaign: Only Death Behind ~v1.0.0~
good and interesting campaign.
The dialogue's were really nice.
It took me a while to understand that the different leaders could recruit different units.
About the roadmap:
I would try to create the roadmap with bits of the 1.11 roadmaps. the old ones won't be used in 1.12

Re: Campaign: Only Death Behind ~v1.0.0~
That was fast i hoped the campaign would be harder
Yeah, i re-used the old tracking map from FoD, which was created before the new amazing maps appeared in the 1.11 branch

I see, thanks, i'll add a hint at the start of the second level.It took me a while to understand that the different leaders could recruit different units.

yeah, i was bored and looked through the forum. played on easy, but don't expect a scenario to last half an hour, if your only goal is to kill some white mage.

Congratulations.
A nice short campaign.
I really enjoyed to play through it.
Great first scenario, brilliant idea.
The rest of the campaign is great too.
Thank you.
EDIT:
I miss the golden laurel wreath around your campaign's icon (campaign selection screen), it should be there because I have finished your campaign.
I guess the reason for that is that you have set no 'id= ' in your campaigns _main.cfg

Never noticed. Will try to fix soon!

Re: Campaign: Only Death Behind ~v1.0.0~
undead-2.cfg line 240 "This provides a significant buff to their power." should be "buffer to their power."
Re: Campaign: Only Death Behind ~v1.0.0~
Hmm Buffer? I wonder what would that mean i meant something as in "buff or nerf", but, on second thought, it is quite an anachronism Rephrased this in a different way.
Anyway, updated to v1.0.1 on the server; also included fixes proposed by Paulomat4 and fixed the id=, thanks Adamant14 again (:
Remaking the world map seems hard. I'll try to read through this and see if it helps me.

Re: Campaign: Only Death Behind ~v1.0.1~
Played on 11.1 first scenario is fun but some irratating bugs. Plague ability randomly doesnt work when you make a kill (for some reason it works on peasents not always archers). The ai is always very odd, barely taking notice of you until you kill them even if you wound and kill villagers. And how are we supposed to know you can get a free ghoul by driving into the swamp?
Re: Campaign: Only Death Behind ~v1.0.1~
It works whenever the enemy is not in a village. I did not use any custom abilities, it works just like the plague ability in the base game.Plague ability randomly doesnt work when you make a kill (for some reason it works on peasents not always archers).
It turns on whenever you kill a villager or an enemy leader stumbles on you. Before that you have time to conspire a surprise attack. Looks natural for a story flow for me.The ai is always very odd, barely taking notice of you until you kill them even if you wound and kill villagers.
You are given a hint on turn 2 (or whenever you discover one of the villages yourself):And how are we supposed to know you can get a free ghoul by driving into the swamp?
> My master, I'm seeing three abandoned buildings at the east that might be of interest.

That said, some irritating bugs are actually present. Poison and slow work incorrectly against neutral units (peasants until AI wakes up), and i have no clue how to fix it.

Re: Campaign: Only Death Behind ~v1.0.1~
Maps are beautiful. Scenario design is quite nice too, but at the expense of the story. I was playing normal and from second scenario on I didnt have any issues with money.
Re: Campaign: Only Death Behind ~v1.0.1~
I'm trying to make the "hard" barely playable and never care about the rest. That's because i myself always play everything on hard so that i didn't have to re-play on hard later
Being surprised enough to see many people playing on easy and medium, i think i need to rebalance things further

Re: Campaign: Only Death Behind ~v1.0.1~
Man this was nice! Very interesting gameplay variation and finally some experimentation also with the undead. Good work!
Re: Campaign: Only Death Behind ~v1.0.1~
Very nice campaign... enjoyed both Flight of Drakes and this one. Very cryptic hints but I like it.
Just spotted a bug in the last scenario. The mermen should recruit "Mermaid Initiate", not Merman Initiate. This causes a WML error and has a small effect on gameplay.
