Alright, been playing it now and here my thoughts as promised. ;)
This time, I have no full review, instead I'll just give you the notes I made during playing your demo.

I liked the demo and think it can be really good.
You make good use of Blizzard's resources to create a good terrain.
Your story is interesting and has good potential.

General:
- Several grammar issues
- Several music themes playing at the same time
- QWER for abilities - nice!
- Cinematics are skippable - good!
- Disable sleep at night for creeps
- I'd change Maiev's abilities, perhaps in a "dark" way, to make them fit the new evolution of her hatred towards Illidan
- Some camera issues with it going through the wall etc.

Prologue:
- Unit movements aren't smooth

Chapter One:
- Blink is NOT disabled (I would replace the whole ability anyway unless you plan to make a Blink chapter)
- The lever in the south-east can only be used with a ranged unit
- Disable upgrades to hide the unresearched abilities

Chapter Two:
- Change the icon of the first main quest, starting location might fit, but looks weird
- Perhaps make Dark Green train lost units to make defeating them more difficult? (Make an AI perhaps?)

Chapter Three:
- Why is there a flying sheep in Outland?
- Increase the max stack of Zeppelins to 2
- Akama AI is building two additional town halls
- Are the non-player heroes on the map supposed to gain levels?
- Watchers cost too much to be worth it, either make them cheaper or more powerful
- What's with that side quest? I haven't been able to get it

Chapter Four:
- Both the riddles and the fights are a bit too easy

Chapter Five:
- The last interlude didn't start this chapter, it sent me back to the campaign screen instead
- The low hit points of the Avian Warriors makes it hard for them to be really useful

Finally, that's what I'm waiting.

General:

- I will fix that.
- I will fix that.
- Thanks.
- Thanks.
- I will do that.
- I will certainly try to do that because Maiev's model will be changed because a model came up. lol
- I will fix that.

Chapter One:
- Blink is NOT disabled (I would replace the whole ability anyway unless you plan to make a Blink chapter)
- The lever in the south-east can only be used with a ranged unit
- Disable upgrades to hide the unresearched abilities

- Yes, I will try.
- I will fix it.
- I will fix it.

Chapter Two:
- Change the icon of the first main quest, starting location might fit, but looks weird
- Perhaps make Dark Green train lost units to make defeating them more difficult? (Make an AI perhaps?)
- I will change it.
- Hmm. I think not but maybee.

Chapter Three:
- Why is there a flying sheep in Outland?
- Increase the max stack of Zeppelins to 2
- Akama AI is building two additional town halls
- Are the non-player heroes on the map supposed to gain levels?
- Watchers cost too much to be worth it, either make them cheaper or more powerful
- What's with that side quest? I haven't been able to get it

- About the sheep. It's because..uhmm. Just click the sheep next time you meet him.
- I will.
- Yes, it's a strange behaviour of AI. There's no help to it, I'm using AI editor.
- Yes, I also observed that the Watcher is not too tanky.
- You'll have to find the Quest Giver.
Chapter Four:
- Both the riddles and the fights are a bit too easy

I'll try to make it hard then and change the riddles on the final release. Their just all too rusty.

Chapter Five:
- The last interlude didn't start this chapter, it sent me back to the campaign screen instead
- The low hit points of the Avian Warriors makes it hard for them to be really useful

- What? Hmm. Strange.
- I will increase their hitpoints then.

Thank you very much. I will try to fix these issues at once. :grin:

I was close to suggest using that one, actually. :xxd:

Wha- Damnit. :xxd:

That's because they're custom town halls.
The AI doesn't understand that they replace each other just like that.
There actually is a way to solve this.
It has been a while since I used it but I think it should go like this:

1) Create several booleans:
- One checks if there are any Tier 2 or Tier 3 town halls
- The other one checks if there are any Tier 3 town halls

2) Add the first boolean to the Tier 1 town hall
3) Add the second boolean to the Tier 2 town hall

That should make it stop.
If it doesn't, I'll go check my map archives for the way I solved it.

You're most welcome. :)

Well, I replaced Akama's model. It's time I replace her too.

Some news. I finished almost everything. Hopefully, I can finish this campaign within this month. :D
The terrain on Chapter 8 is ongoing.

I forgot I added a poll for some reason. lol
