I haven't played a singleplayer scenario in a couple of years now and I think this is one of the rare instances where a singleplayer scenario piqued my interest to play it. Plus I'm interested to see how much you've improved since your The City of Valaron scenario (which was also among one of the rare singleplayer scenarios I've played, and more importantly, truly enjoyed). Expect some feedback from me the coming week after I've finished my playthrough.

This also reminded me that I still need to play Khan and Steak's The Pirate Life singleplayer scenario from almost 7 years ago (whoops!).

I'm certain they'll both be excellent singleplayer experiences and am looking forward to play them.

Greetings old friend. I hope you'll have a fun time with this one. I think it's better than Valaron.

Reviewed your scenario. Hopefully you like a lot of reading.

I'd a fun time playing your RPG and yes, I think you've definitely improved since your Valaron scenario. You've created some really interesting mechanics, and... - you know what, just read the review.

I cannot thank you enough for all the stuff you wrote! I will go trough it again and put up another update addressing as many issues as possible.

I'm glad to hear the review is of help.

Let us know in this thread when you've updated your map. I'll give it another shot and update my review where necessary.

Oh, and one thing I forgot to mention in my review is that you may want to consider disallowing the player to mount during combat. It's a bit of a cheap way to get away from dangerous situations quickly and it kind of makes you invincible, which eliminates the tense atmosphere you've carefully created. You could also take it a step further and introduce a new mechanic (when a difficulty higher than Easy is selected) where the player is forced to dismount whenever he receives X amount of damage or perhaps even any damage at all.

Just some thoughts to consider.

I have once again updated the map. If you feel like it, you can try it again.
