I enjoyed the campaign. It's not as simple as it seems at first glance. It was very interesting and engaging to complete the missions. I'd like to see more campaigns like this. Thank you for your hard work.

A masterpiece.
The author has definitely surpassed Nival.
Unlike the standard campaigns, where almost everything is obvious, here you sometimes have to struggle and think. It's not recommended to delay, which is also a plus. The cutscenes are magnificent. It's hard to even imagine how much effort and energy was put into this campaign. The maps, the plot, the music, the Imperial troops... And what attention to detail, from the landscape to the arenas in Ivendel, and even a tribute to the first map, Ment, for Markel (Necromancy for Beginners, yes). Respect!
If there's any hope for a sequel, that would be amazing.

I just finished playing it for the first time, on Hero difficulty, with the Hof Renegades mod. The latest version, so there were no technical issues. The Greens are the best!
I always max out my heroes.
Andreas benefits greatly from the mentoring starting from the second map...
It eliminates the need to "level up" Varens, and it saves the day on the fifth mission if you first eliminate the Elves and let the mages grow, and then they have hundreds of Titans. You create secondary heroes, level them up in Darkness, give them 7 hunters, and annoy the mages. - and voila, the mage army (and Irbet too) cuts itself down under Berserk. (I think that's why access to Menelaus's castle is only allowed to Andreas). Well, Menelaus falls mainly to the Elven troops, as they have plenty of archers, and the Dark Elves are immune to Menelaus's magic.

Discovered something not very pleasant – undead creatures cannot be raised from the Sylvan faction.

High-quality walkthrough on the highest difficulty level.

RedHeavenHero, maybe you could add it to the header?

Help me, I don't have any green creatures in mission 2, and I downloaded a mod but don't know where to put it. Please provide detailed instructions.

You don't need to download anything else. Just the campaign installer. It's important to launch it through the .exe file. Detailed instructions are on the first page of the thread. It is recommended to start the mission from the beginning after reinstalling.

RedHeavenHero, Thank you very much for your work. I completed the main campaign and the additional maps with the Hero. I got a lot of enjoyment. I was very pleased with the detailed environment and the well-thought-out design of each map. The enemy in each mission is strong enough, but still quite beatable. The plot is excellent and in no way inferior to the original. I have only one comment: the green griffins turned out to be weaker than the red ones. The latter, with "Vampirism" and readiness, along with the counter-strike bonus and battle frenzy, and also retribution, are quite capable of winning almost any battle without losses. Thus, the third upgrade loses some of its meaning: we spend money and get a unit that is, at the very least, no better, or even worse than the previous one. If you give them the ability to strike without retaliation, then the choice will be more justified. If you think it's appropriate, you can give them this ability.

I'm having a problem with the green faction. In the second mission, I approach the fortress on the hill and want to upgrade my creatures, but I can't because the fortress only accepts un-upgraded creatures. However, when I upgrade them, I pay for the upgrade, and the unit simply disappears. I tried using a mod that allows me to buy them in the castle, but they aren't there. The slots are just empty. Please help.

I second the previous speaker's question.

Most likely, the campaign is not installed correctly, the game is not being launched through the correct .exe file, you are using version 3.0, or you have the Eternal Essence mod installed.

Installation problem. When opening the EU.exe file, Windows displays a message stating that it has protected the computer and refuses to run the file. What should I do?

You can open EU.exe with an archiver and extract its contents into the folder where the game is installed.

I unpacked it, but when I run it, it says that um.dll is missing.

Generally, this is a strange issue. Everything unpacked and installed perfectly for me.
