That's where the real skill showed in the fourth mission; this is the beginning of great achievements in the future!
If you want to play on easy, it's better to choose shorter maps. Also, some campaigns have a chronology. There are two dwarf campaigns, and that's exactly the case. First comes "The Fiery Scepter," and then "The Hammer of Something." The "Fiery Scepter" is actually quite interesting; it's epic. I also liked the last two (Northern Renaissance and Under a Blazing Sun), but you need some experience for those.
