I decided to finally start a new campaign for the humans, called The Rebirth of the North.
It's a bit tedious to write, but I planned to post it a long time ago, as well as the next one, which will be about the elves, so I'll see it through to the end.

The game begins in the city of Dwarven Gates, which is located near the dwarven caves. This city started as a trading post for humans and dwarves, and later elves joined them. But the main inhabitants were still humans and dwarves (the city was located on their border). The settlement developed and grew, eventually turning into a rich city. The inhabitants did not forget about defense, because wealth always attracts unwanted guests. Of course, ordinary bandits could not cause much harm, but soon orcs appeared. At first, these were small raids, then the armies became larger and larger, until one day a whole horde of orcs arrived. Despite all the efforts of the defenders, the city fell. The dwarves were driven back into their caves, and the humans were taken into slavery.
*a long and boring story about how the humans lived in slavery under the orcs for a long time. then heroes (King Conrad, an old mage (probably Delphador) and an elven lord (maybe Kalenz)) came in search of a ruby, cutting through the ranks of the orcs and inspiring everyone with words, although they didn't save anyone, and then left*
Much time passed, but the people did not forget that event. In their hearts lived the hope that one day they would regain their freedom. Some began to train at night, learning the art of combat. One of these people was a young man named Tallinn. His father worked as a blacksmith, so his family lived easier, as this position was respected by the orcs. The young man grew up and gained strength, and his mother also taught him to read and write.
And then one day, a neighboring tribe attacked the city (apparently, all the neighboring lands were already occupied by orcs). Or rather, they didn't attack, but began to make raids, so the orc chieftain from Dwarven Gates had to station soldiers from the city on the border, thereby weakening control over the slaves. Naturally, the people decided to take advantage of this situation and try to break free...


1. The First Step
While the orcs were dealing with each other, the peasants quickly gathered and armed themselves with pitchforks and weapons that Tallinn stole from the warehouse.
I lined up the peasants in front of the forest and waited for the orcs to kill each other. I sent a couple of people on reconnaissance to capture the houses. In the north, in the mountains, I discovered an old dwarven tunnel and decided to explore it. I sent a peasant there, and a moment later he flew out of there screaming, followed by five trolls. He was a brave peasant. I got a little lucky, and three of the trolls headed down to the orcs, and the other two came to me. I had to fight them. Then I fought off a couple of orcs who suddenly decided to attack me. Then I regrouped and began the attack. Slowly but surely, we advanced towards our goal, and in the end, the orcs were destroyed.
