Little quip, I thing this green is too dark and saturated, a lighter green toxic goo will look better in context.
This is a nice suggestion. I know where you're coming from and I like the direction of your edit, but I really don't have time to sit down and do it myself. Frankly, the jarring and saturated look right now sits well with me, but if someone came up and said: "Hey, here's a pack of defs with corrected palette saturation that looks nice to the eyes and is overall well-made*", I would be more inclined to take it in 
Other than that, after some test runs and fixes, the map's balance is shaping up well. My first tester, and trusted friend, breezed through it, so I bumped up the difficulty level. I'm waiting for two others to have their way with it, and then I'll probably have a nice overall picture (meanwhile I'm playing it myself, too). The release date stays the same and I'm 99% sure it won't change.
(*Provided it's indeed well-made and looks nice to the eyes.)

Greetings and salutations!
... to all those still waiting after such a long hiatus. The last chapter of Antagarich Burning series will take you to the border of the (already ravaged) Erathia and Bracada. The scenery will be a bit different from what some of you might remember from Might & Magic VII, due to the activity of elementals who aggressively oppose the expansion of the Heavenly Forge. This will be the arena where two kings clash - the Supreme Leader Kastore himself, and Roland, leading the troops brought over from his native Enroth, as a last hope standing in the way of cybernetically augmented aberrations.
The mod is ready to be downloaded via the VCMI launcher.
IMPORTANT - mod is updated along VCMI and requires its recent stable version - at least 1.5.
Get ready to burning! Oh, but do mind the oozes. They don't burn well without magic, and it's difficult to get them off your shoes after stepping on one...

Some small bugs?
Gypsy Caravan offers me 2Defence or Cards of Prophecy... I take Defense with main hero and with secondary I take artifact. Is this intended?
Forge troops give -1 morale because undead in the army. Is this intended?

If Gypsies offer you +2 defense then it's indeed a bug, but I just checked it on my side and they give out +1 defense or a trinket. This choice is available for every hero and it's not a bug.
"Regular" Forge troops (Grunts, Stingers, Tanks etc.) give -1 morale to units of other factions in the army. Additionally, Cyber Dead give -1 morale to all living creatures (even their Forge compatriots) like any other undead.

There's one short "bonus" chapter I vaguely had in my mind before, but I won't get to it in the nearest future. So for now, I'd like to consider the project finished.
I got the wind of the new AI toy, so I did a thing.

I just found out that this mod uses the original maps from Armageddon's Blade campaign:
Comparison:
ANcientDRuids doesn't mention it anywhere, so I'm doing it for him. The author of the original maps is a NWC employee, Marcus Pregent, and he should be praised above all. ANcientDRuids only made very simple changes to them. I had the opportunity to speak with ANcientDRuids some time ago and I gave him good feedback on the maps. He never told me that he was not their author, which is lame.
Please, out of respect for Marcus Pregent, add in the first post that you used his work.

Well, it's not like I intended to hide the fact. The similarity is just too striking when you see it, isn't it? So I imagined the person who noticed it by themselves would feel at least a bit more cool and clever. But it's true only for the first map. Other two were created from scratch. Might be a good moment to mention that I've hidden a tiny Easter Egg in "Return of the Wizard" too. Still waiting for someone to find it.
Anyways, I'll edit the first post as soon as I'm able to.
(The first post was edited, thank you Corribus!)
