Scenario & Campaign Development • Re: Waves of Distant Shore - Campaign

After having read this topic, eh, seems I missed a lot, I got no achievements and didn't find the Holy Brother.

The campaign is pretty easy if you made a solid setup in the first battle scenario. First I somehow made through it, started scenario 2 with only level 1s and no healers and I understood I wouldn't make.

I've redone scenario 1, decided to advance one intelligent Initiate to Diviner asap (and ofc make any other level-ups if possible), also decided to get that Death Knight, hopefully it spawns in the water with low defense. Finishing it with a gonna-be Diviner proved to be extremely beneficial: now I got a healer, an illumination source and a leader, all in one. Dunno if you envisioned this to be the most optimal path when designing or it just aligned, still it's extremely nice.

In scenario 2 I picked up the barrel by my Merman Hunter and then turned him to Javelineer, and with illumination and leadership this scenario became extremely easy.

Scenario 3 was also easy after building a good backbone in the previous two. For the final event my path wasn't really that blocked... anyway. Also I wonder which fish did I not defeat for getting the achievement. Maybe it's because I finished so fast (12 turns) and got no chance to see it...

I liked the story.
Spoiler:
Music choice and visual FX are nicely made, they set the mood and rise the tension pretty well.

I would also note: I liked how you set up special items and events. Things weren't too much hidden, but some weren't that blatantly obvious as well. Maps are nice, I almost never felt any discomfort. In scenario 1 there is a land village in south-west and foresting of the farther keep that felt a bit annoying but I believe that was an intentional design. Don't say something should be changed, just decided to post all the feelings and thoughts I got

Here are my replays, I played on the Hardest difficulty of two available. Thanks for making the campaign!
