After years of searching, this is it,. You've finally found the land of your ancestors. A land which you rule by birthright.
You must improve the skills of the units you have, until it's time to wage true war on the enemy.
This is my first attempt at map making. I think the beginning bit before you get your city may be too easy, and possibly the bit after you get your city too hard, but i'm a novice and would like others opinions. :)
I reallise the plot may be a little weak, and apologies if this is boring or too easy. But any comments would be welcome. :)

You have to follow along or it isn't very forgiving. Orc leader wasn't on the board so couldn't actually win the game.
Balance: 4
Early battles are easy, however, so good battles against Shadow Demons later in the game.
Creativity: 4
Map has some decent messages and layout on the half that I can see. I liked Sewer concept.
Map Design: 4
Decent detail and nice "city" for Dumble. Some interesting navaigational challenges.
Story/Instructions: 3
Story through pop-ups was ok, but not much hint on what to do after the sewer "quest"; which it wasn't . No reward. No access.
Additional Comments:
I have updated my ratings based on the help on discussion board. You shoud update the in game message to be more clear.

Two maps in one: initially a quest followed by a more classical battle.

Overall a very enjoyable map, short enought to complete in a few hours.
PS. I have been able to release Eva early in the game using Shadow Shift + Free Movement.
Se hecha en falta mas juego indirecto. Muy buen mapa e historia.

Additional Comments:
I have enjoyed the game much especially the first part since it's the challenging one to keep my troops not die.The second part starts hard because of double side attack on main city and shadow demons eventually become ok. nevertheless heroes or wizard die if not careful. Couldn't able to beat the game because can't find the shadow demon wizard. In his info screen also there is no structure for him. Another thing noted is my troops not able to reach north underground way normally. Had to use free movement enchantment. But enemies can move through it.
