I wonder: Will you go straight for the third human book or have second orc and undead first???
Also i would like to see how you are going to fit the story of the second human book with the orc and undead ones ( if you plan to do so).

There will not be a third human book.

If Shar hasn't changed ideas, the next book will be the orc book.

The human, orc and undead books are not connected at all. They are separate and paralel storylines. What happens on one book might not occur on the others.

I just noticed chapter 12 also out. :O :O . Arkain Industry is on steroid for sure. But @Shar Dundred why don't we have boni in chapter 12? And please allow to make units. It's truly overwhelming.
U basicly need to hold out to get off 4 purificator shots if well aimed, should be doable to hold out without making any.

Golden Guard should be busy pushing the front lines out of the base borders (destroy Birram's forces) early on. From that point, it should be doable with triple gold mines in hand.
I find it rather hard to push out since you're getting attacked pretty much every 2 minutes. I have been able to complete all missions, but this one never seems to work out for me.

So our choice in human book can affect the story in next chapter,but can our choice in human book to affect the characthers and the game in orc respective Undead campaign?
I wonder if there is a strong connection betwen chapters from same book?
Well,congratulation you and your team for all your work i am sure is not an easy job,it also requires time for it.

All three are isolated from each other, so the choices not gonna affect other books.

No. The choices you make in one book can only affect that same book or the book after.

The Human, Orc and Undead Books are three separate and parallel storylines. What happened on one may not happen on the others.

You know it gives a little thinking ,like i am thinking who has the most played roll in a book or which race ,but somehow like everyone is playing his little part in others campaign like undead played in human campaign or in orc in first book,since that every campaign is happening at the same time i thing like someone is always with one step forward then others but death is inevitable for even for they i guess it will,don't know exactly.

Should be doable with Destructors, I will try some playthrough to see how it goes there.
Tried many times so far, even with destructors but to be completely honest, I think the difficulty of this mission is a little over my head. Have already tried it on easy but then I was able to finish the game in 30 min. Also I have seen some other ppl playing it and noticed some differences, guess they are consequences of the previous choices I've made? Such as Sir Lerrig showing up. Any tips perhaps?
 
I recommend you to play chapter 9 first with destructor bought, as you will start with a handy amount of destructors to help early game. Keep in mind the difficult part is when Undead leaves, so try to snipe the enemy castles before that happens. Once the castle is lost, push in with entire army. If you haven't kill Sir Lerrig in earlier mission, his aura help this mission a lot. If you like going hard way but dislike too much micro, try Renald's bonus. It's by far the OP thing here. If you want to focus on dealing with pesky dragons first, use Zarin's bonus. Attack when allies are attacking, snipe channeling heroes with Zarin if possible.

It is by far, one of the hardest mission to date, excluding chapter 12 which is relative to it.

Believe it or not, this actually helped me alot. Managed to kill both Castles within 5 min, cleared the complete mission in 1:16. Thanks man

I decided to replay the campaign to see if i missed something and i found that truly facinating ending after queen renova's death.
Question one : Is Brian having any connection with the demon legions or lisara's master who has yet to reveal himself ??
Question two : Is Aridon truly dead?? If yes then why would the dark elves say that they will please him at the lords of the golden guard chapter??
Question three : What will happen to the Kasrkin now that their comander is dead.For me thy are the best soldiers in the whole series

Note : I can't believe that there will be no third book after such amazing revelations.

1. Brian is a mysterious man, believed to be dead. Refer to his biography. His true identity is still a mystery.
2. It's quite a mystery, since we don't have any account of Bloodbath chapter in human version

Brian most likely has no connections to the Demon Legions. However in the Second Book it is noticeable that he is aware of the Dark Entity and that he and Aridon were once acquaintances.

Question two : Is Aridon truly dead?? If yes then why would the dark elves say that they will please him at the lords of the golden guard chapter??

In this thread we made many theories. These are some:
1-Aridon only pretended to die and is hiding.
2-Aridon's body was destroyed but a part of him still resides inside the Flesheater
3-Aridon did die.

Question three : What will happen to the Kasrkin now that their comander is dead.For me thy are the best soldiers in the whole series

They will not join the Golden Guard, that is for sure, since they imprisoned, tortured and killed Blen. They will either disband, become mercenaries or pledge their loyalty to Gardon.

In FHB, mission 2 or 3 where there is a side quest to kill the far seer, has anyone spared him and see what changes it had?

I think it was only a small diagolue change.
If you chose to side with Gardon, he will say the farseer wasn't responsible for the corruption in the forest of Lor.

Well Farseers are shamans, and shamans are all about nature and spirits. It would have made much more sense if it was a warlock or a necrolyte...

Its Shar Dundred working at the drawing board, so if I were you, I would expect the least possible course of events, especially when you count you did the right thing.

After the pre-chapter 11 interlude I began feeling kind of bad for van durce, sure he is an arrogant asshole, but at the same time he was basically following orders, and he did things in his power to make sure Gardon could potentially survive
