Now let's discuss these two Campaigns added in "Crossworlds" and share our playthroughs. Due to the small size of these Campaigns, I don't think it's necessary to create separate threads for them.
First, I want to share my impressions after completing "Champion of the Arena." At first, it didn't impress me much, but with the introduction of new units, it started to become more engaging. The most challenging opponent for me was K'tharr, but I defeated the others on my first try. I enjoyed the Guilds; I joined them whenever possible. I liked this scheme: first, I bought Demonologists (I really liked this unit; I used them until the very end of the game) in the Bounty Hunters Guild, then, after the first battle, I joined the Dwarves and Humans. After the second battle, I joined the Elves and Orcs. I liked this combination: at the beginning, Demonologists, Elves, and Ancient Ents, and later, we add Orcs. After defeating the Driller, I bought Orcish Veterans and Frenzied Goblins, and after Gremlion, I replaced the latter with Shamans, although I should have done that earlier. After the battle with the Kraken, you can buy a lot of Paladins and Black Dragons from the Humans. This is great News, especially since I fought the Kraken in the fourth battle. The Orcs will also provide Dragons. Before the battle with Gremlion, the army composition was as follows: Black Dragon, Orcish Veterans, Frenzied Goblins, Paladins, Demonologists. Then, I replaced the Frenzied Goblins with Shamans and the Paladins with Demons (I think you can break the alliance with the Humans even before the battle with Gremlion). The battle with the last boss was easy; I just wish I had replaced the Black Dragon with a Gold Dragon. I didn't pay much attention to the companions; only the "exclusive" Troll was useful. I played on Normal difficulty with a Paladin. I'll try on Hard difficulty next time.
I've only just started "The Defender," on Normal difficulty, with a Mage. I completed the first battle, and the magic was very impressive. I don't have much more to say for now. But I liked the Campaigns, although the developers cut corners in many ways.
