electrifyre's Issues

• That Pyrah the Faerie is not truly gone.

Update Story Macro Names

• A new scenario is being added, the story text sequence will have to sequence

S1: Add extra hint to check descriptions of enemy units before engagement

Considering adding a side hero character for the player side.

[S5] Turn Limit Might be too strict

Finished the campaign. It's short and sweet and it's nice introduction to Aragwaithi faction, nice to see that they are getting some love. The first 3 scenarios I was able to complete in challenging difficulty but at the last scenario I had to change it to tutorial level of difficulty after failing in it 2 times due to time limit.
