Title: "Search for Truth"
Name: "Search for truth"
Number of missions:
Main heroes: Sandro, Markal, Lucretia
Author: Andrei_21
Description:
In the year 717 of the Era of the Seventh Dragon, the necromancer Sandro sets out in search of the artifact Melody. With its help, he intends to travel to the Spirit World and deal with Elrath — the Dragon of Light. This should destroy the Veil that Asha and her children created around the world. But the Order of the Dragon split the relic into three parts and hid them in different corners of Ashan. Unknowingly, they are ready to do anything to prevent the truth about what lies beyond the Veil from being revealed...

List of missions:
The Age of Void
Bloody Isles
The Final Step
City of Oblivion
Spirit World

I express my deepest gratitude to:
 AstralLein, IchGViji, vadim_t, fktifzobr@mail.ru for their help in creating and testing the campaign.

From the author:
I worked on this campaign for nearly a year and a half — quite a long time. I can hardly believe myself that it has finally reached release. I hope this campaign will not disappoint those who have been waiting for this continuation of the story of Sandro and his disciples. Because of such a long wait, I decided to add a couple of unconventional moments and easter eggs here. Be attentive while playing! The campaign once again features artifact transfer between missions. The campaign is also fully voiced, and all heroes received their own unique voices. This was made possible thanks to the voice-over services Steos Voice, Silero, and Texttospeech. If you encounter any bugs or errors during your playthrough, be sure to report them in this thread.

Installation: Follow the link provided below and follow the instructions in the readme.txt file. Due to its size, the campaign cannot be uploaded to the forum, so it is hosted on Google Drive. Third-party music tracks are also used in the work, making installation somewhat more complicated than usual. You can choose either installation via an SFX archive or manual extraction of a regular zip archive.

Changelog:
Version 1.1:
- the spell "Wall of Swords" is banned in all missions
- the spell "Teleportation" is granted to Markal from the start in accordance with his specialization
- the boss in mission 1 has been strengthened
- fixed the behavior and army of the demon hero in mission 2
- AI heroes in missions 3, 4, and 5 have been strengthened
- Elrath's Avatar significantly buffed
- some texts corrected
- Sandro's specialization icon now displays correctly in battle

I'll share my impressions, I promise. However, I'll have to play the game in windowed mode (F4), and would a mod for simultaneous turns in online play improve the game?

Описание:
В 717 году Эры Седьмого Дракона пустомант Сандро отправляется на поиски артефакта Мелодия. С её помощью он намерен отправиться в Мир Духов и расправиться там с Эльратом - Драконом Света. Это должно разрушить Завесу, что создала Асха и её дети вокруг мира. Но Орден Дракона разделил реликвию на три части и спрятал их в разных частях Асхана. Они сами того не осознавая готовы на все, чтобы помешать узнать правду о происходящем за Завесой...

Список миссий:
Эра Пустоты
Кровавые острова
Последний шаг
Город забвения
Мир Духов

Выражаю огромную благодарность:
 AstralLein, IchGViji, vadim_t, fktifzobr@mail.ru за помощь в создании и тестировании кампании.

От автора:
Над этой кампанией я работал без малого полтора года - довольно большой срок. Самому с трудом вериться, что наконец дело дошло до релиза. Надеюсь, эта кампания не разочарует тех, кто ждал этого продолжения истории Сандро и его учеников. Из-за столь долгого времени ожидания я решил добавить сюда пару нестандартных моментов и пасхалок. Будьте внимательны при игре! В кампании вновь реализован перенос артефактов между миссиями. Также кампания полностью озвучена и все герои получили свои уникальные голоса. Это было сделано благодаря сервисам озвучки Steos Voice, Silero и Texttospeech. Если при прохождении будут обнаружены какие-либо баги или ошибки, то обязательно пишите о них в теме.

Установка: Перейдите по ссылке, указанной ниже и следуйте инструкциям в файле readme.txt. Из-за размеров кампанию нельзя загрузить на форум, поэтому она размещена на Google Диске. Также в работе используется стороннее музыкальное сопровождение, поэтому установка несколько сложнее, чем обычно. Можно выбрать либо установку через SFX-архив, либо ручную распаковку обычного zip-архива.

There's a regular link to a standard Google Drive in the topic header. If it doesn't work for you, you'll have to update your browser because Google Drive is quite common. And Andrey can't upload it to the forum. The reason is stated in the same header.

So... Regarding the voice acting, it's a bit strange, but okay, it's a minor drawback. I started playing as the Barbarian.

"Collect all four amulets to see through time and space" - how useful is this? What did I lose 1 Death Messenger for?

Oh, and I think I found a bug (or a feature). The second and weak garrison on the way to the blue one can be easily and safely bypassed through the trees without fighting. Or is it a bug, or a hint at the carelessness of the garrison soldiers?

So, I was playing a map with a hero, everything was going well, I was winning, but the reason I lost was because of azure dragons; I just can't handle them.

Regarding the amulets: it's just a tiny (not quite) Easter egg; I haven't seen anything like it anywhere else, which is why I decided to add it. But it won't affect the gameplay of the 5 missions. And the garrison... I have no idea how I didn't notice that; I apologize, all the loopholes have already been closed, thank you.

I'm going to replay the first mission on Recruit difficulty and share my impressions; it's a bit boring right now.
