I understood. I thought a few words were missing in the speech.

The 'Armory Guardians Dwarven' (orange) do not move until my first unit enters their attack range.
both cases are correct; The healing potion must restore the max hp, all dwarven initially placed on the map have a 'guardian' behavior.

There is a Dragon Statue on 14,14 which should probably be on 15,14.
My Direwolf Rider is somehow unable to use the healing potion.


Towards the Dread Swamp
monilith -> monolith
all fixed in the 3.1.4 version

Because the demons in the "Under the Burnings Suns" campaign have monster as race.
It would probably have been better to create a race of demon 'ad hoc' ; I'll do it in the future.

Towards the Dread Swamp
Defeat the lich leader and then Gaius reach the monolith behind his castle -> Defeat the lich leader and move Gaius afterwards to the monolith behind the castle
Gaius reach the monolith behind his castle -> Gaius reaches the monolith behind the castle

EDIT:
Battle with Demons
The unit on 8,4 should be on 8,5.
It's also odd that Mal-Kevlar has all villages while his allies have none.

Well, It depends on how egocentric the leader is :lol:

Thanks for the feedbacks :D

Mal-Kevlar is the only leader who can't recruit or recall, so...

It does not make much sense that all those Human Necromancers die just because Mal-Kevlar is dead.

wehere -> where

Mulberryn has a 'loyal' marker instead of a silver crown.

Played on easy. Difficulty seemed about right, except for Raid which I found kind of tight on the turn limit. Actually, I found the limited movement due to terrain a little annoying throughout.
Spoiler:
In the very beginning Tankyn (who also goes by Tankin?) asks for 58 gold, but you hire him for 54.

At one point, someone says "Lomelindin has done his part". His?

There were a number of missing images. Log file attached.

Well, currently we can suppose the Nacromancers escaped at the dead of Mal-Kevlar; I'll do something better later.

How about replacing the 'Mage' for the Easy difficulty with an 'Arch Mage' (r downgrade the Great/Elder Mage)? Then the progression would make more sense.
Mage -> (Red Mage -> Arch Mage ->) Great Mage -> Elder Mage
Or is there really such a jump in difficulty between Easy and Normal?

EDIT:
Also, not really a bug, but your [difficulty] for Hard isn't indented correctly (main file).

Mabel has the ability to animate the forest; in fact you can summon woses only if Mable is near a forest sector.

it is simply a skill possessed by Mabel. :eng:

HI Argesilao,
Playing through your campaign at the moment and really enjoying it. I noticed you were looking for someone to reword the dialogue. If you wanna post a text file I'll look through it for you :). I'm enjoying the new abilities of the heroes however it might be helpful to include a help screen where you can check what the abilities are, in case you forget. I'm thinking something like LOTI (simple right-click --> help --?abilities). Again, just a suggestion.

Back to the dialogue, only one major spelling mistake that needs correcting; S5 "Unespected Allies" --> "Unexpected Allies"

Thanks for making a great campaign though. I'll post more as I complete it

How can I contribute some proofreading/suggestions for dialog?

Thank you for reporting this issues. I have fixed all of them.

I've changed the description.

I’m guessing you don’t mean you don’t understand how the ability works, but you don’t know how to use it without losing Subort, right?
I don’t know either. That’s quite a suicide-ability. In many test games I almost never have used the ability, because it only makes sense when there are two or more enemies adjacent to Subord, which results in his almost certain death when the enemy strikes back.
