Or make Caror arrive from the east. The way it is, it's too difficult to defend him, especially compared to the 1.6 version.
That is true.
And by the way, it is strange that the former wooden fortification there is suddendly a castle made of stone.
Is there someone out there who is maintaining this campaign?
Or has someone just ported this buggy campaign to 1.16 and left then?
EDIT:

and also scenario 10:
The objectives say that the king is not allowed to die.
Code: Select all
[objective]
description= _ "Death of King Caror II"
condition=lose

Re: A New Heir
FTR the person who ported this said they plan to maintain the campaign, they are just busy right now.
Re: A New Heir
I really hope someone will maintain this campaign, because this campaign is of very good quality, just a little bit buggy.
And there are some story flaws as you mentioned (Orcs, Ogres, and a non-lich-Jevyan )
But this campaign is really worth to carry on.

Re: A New Heir
That is correct, and that would be me.
I am glad you liked it, and sorry some bugs disturbed your playthrough. I will indeed maintain it and fit it to mainline lore, in a few days I will update the campaign with the quick fixes and link the feedback to here (or maybe open a new thread, I have not decided yet). For now, I encourage everyone to keep the feedback coming.

I'm glad to read that you will maintain this jewel of a campaign. But please do not open another thread.

Re: A New Heir
scenario 10:
When Jevyan dies you kill all units inside the castle walls.
Sadly this means instant defeat when there is a hero unit inside the castle walls!
Better use some [not] here, to prevent the heroes to die.
EDIT:
scenario 6,10,11: should be
When Jevyan dies you kill all units inside the castle walls.
Code: Select all
# Kill everything in the castle
[kill]
# If fire event is deactivated, you could lose Eldaric without losing the game
fire_event=yes
x=23,24,25
y=12-13,12,12-13

Re: A New Heir
I want to play this since I rarely find good quality campaigns these days, but seeing all these bugs make me want to wait for the updated version which will be bug-free. I shall play when the bugs are patched.because this campaign is of very good quality

Re: A New Heir
S9
The bonus objective 'defeat the rest of the enemy leaders' does not disappear after you've defeated the rest of the enemy leaders.
Some of my units didn't arrive with full health.
S10
becuase -> because
S11
0% canon.
It is nice how it tries to connect with TRoW, but because of it it is far sadder how badly it fails at doing so.

Re: A New Heir
I liked this campaign. I especially liked how competent Addodran was in the first three levels, he actually got a nice little recall list of his own by the time his army went defunct. I also liked Healers/Medicasters ,they were a godsent against undead, and in the final level newly formed White Mage corps were the backbone of my force.
But among all that good was a blight called Southbay in Spring. Recall list wipe combined with an enemy that spams Bone Shooters? That's just a recipe for disaster, put a limit on how many Bone Shooters that guy can put out in one turn, fighting 10+ level 2 enemies with only Medicasters/Cavaliers and fresh level 1 recruits is about the opposite of fun. Hardest scenario in the campaign by far.
I also didn't like Necrophages appearing out of the swamps in Revival, it's easy to get overwhelmed by them, especially if you don't have a Medicaster as one of your first joining units. They are much more manageable in The Cleanse.
Also:
1) One scenario's ending (I think it's Soutbay in Spring) still mentions orcs, should be undead.
2) Please give the Dragoon ally commander in Southbay in Summer scenario Slow trait - there were several times when he rushed out around turn 5 or 6 and was instantly surrounded by Pandora's forces who proceded to stone him to death. With Slow trait, he would be less likely to rush out, and would also be a bit tougher.
3) Neither King Caror, nor Prince Haric are loyal, I think they should be. Also Prince Haric can recruit in one level where he is playable.
3) Just an interesting note, I had a White Mage that required around 180 EXP to become a Mage of Light since he got 2 or 3 AMLAs while he was still a Medicaster.
4) I think the final boss should be an Ancient Lich, having him be a regular Lich was underwhelming for a final boss.

Re: A New Heir
I have found it impossible to find Jevyan's hiding spot on "Revival" (scenario 10?). Can anyone provide his coordinates?
Other than that its is a wonderful campaign!
