Re: Scenario Review: DM 1 - Overture

(7) I can't quite decide if the "thorum restro targa thorum" chant of the oracles is ingenious or silly, since this is the chant the orcish shamans do in Warcraft when clicking on the temple. GREAT! You have noticed it! The Warcraft was the first fantasy strategy I've met with. Mine too :...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 22 - Face of the Enemy

1) Medium (2) WAAAAAAAY too easy. I never had a situation where even one unit was in danger of dying... the units the opponent spawns are weaklings compared to the heroes you have, and because of the tight corridors it is always a 1:1, which favors your units to the brink of undefeatable (3) Very cl...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 21 - Clash at the Manor

1) Medium (2) Way too easy. The opponent dies in a matter of rounds, killed at the border of the forest, because he doesn't try to reach the signpost and attacks my units instead. Not that it mattered... I had units close to the signpost, just in case... (3) Very clear (4) Yes, it is definitely nece...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 20 - Prince of Wesnoth

1) Medium (2) 3. I don't want to repeat myself, unfortunately I have to. Simply too easy... Both enemy forts within reach of a big forest? The opponent never had a chance (3) Very clear (4) The dialogue is the big plus of the campaign (5) Challenges... the 2 turns for each enemy fort I spent outside...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 19 - Showdown in the Northern Swamp

1) Medium (2) 3-4. As mentioned before, the late scenarios in the campaign are very easy. In this case I lost all white mages in the previous scenario (I thought the fight at the gate would be the final fight and didn't pay attention on keeping as many units alive as possible) and had to fight witho...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 18 - The Portal of Doom

1) Medium (2) 3. All scenarios starting with "save the king" until the end are ridiculously easy, because the opponent never has enough firepower to seriously harm you. And since you change the units every few scenarios, it is not even that bad to lose some units (3) Unclear. In the beginn...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 17 - A New Ally

1) Medium (2) 4. I had enough money and spellcasters so that the undead never had a chance (3) very clear (4) Not really interesting. (5) No challenge at all (6) 4. A generic undead stomping quest (7) Maybe an opponent that actually is a challenge? he recruits just whimps compared to what I had on d...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 15 - Save the King

1) Medium (2) 2. It is ridiculously easy. I won in just 4 rounds! (3) Very misleading. I killed the first chief (it wasn't even me, it was a fighter from the king who did the final blow) and all the others were fleeing. I was absolutely baffled that the scenario was finished (4) It explains some thi...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 14 - Shadows

1) Medium (2) 6-7. When You have enough casters in your ranks it is not so difficult after all, but the lack of enough villages and money makes recruiting units once you expended your money nealry impossible (3) Very clear (4) It is interesting and explains the comong events quite good (5) uniting t...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 13 - The Return of Trouble

1) Medium (2) 8-9. So far the most difficult scenario, but it is definitely not impossible. I recruited until my money was gone and retreated to the forest. If done right it is possible to keep most units alive. The allied forces were not as useless as in most scenarios. They even werw quite useful ...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 12 - Terror at the Ford of Parthyn

1) Medium (2) 6-9. The span is between 6 when you replay it and know which villages spawn enemies and which spawn friends, and 9 when you first try it. (3) Both very clear and absolutely not clear. The objective was not really clear, look what is going on in the garrison, but after you actually know...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 11 - Wasteland

1) Medium (2) 3-4. After finishing the scenario, I just thought: "that's it? That's all? No surprise? No twist? I rushed the enemy to bits because I recruited way too much units for the difficulty, expecting something harder (3) very clear (4) the dialogue is the highlight of the campaign. lots...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 10 - The Gate Between Worlds

1) Medium (2) 6. It is quite easy to figure that the best strategy is to lure the enemy in the swamp and kill him there. Yes, you lose some units, but it could be worse (3) Very clear (4) It was clear, but I was a bit at a loss why the necromancer wants to kill Delfador. Why Delfador wants to kill t...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 9 - Houses of the Dead

1) Medium (2) 8. It ist quite difficult to keep Delfador alive, but once you get the knack, it is not so hard at all. (3) The first objective is quite clear, but I am somewhat missing an objective update when learning about the staff. Actually, I stumbled across the staff by accident after finding t...

Re: Scenario Review: DM 8 - Ur Thorodor

1) Medium (2) 5-6. I played the older version and lost a good part of my units to the griffon until i was able to get them down and cross the water, but in the newer version it is much easier. In fact, at the beginning die gryphons went occupying villages and so it was possible to get nearly all uni...
