Some maps were made before announcing the campaign, but I'm modifing a few of them. That is why I have so many maps with the terrain finished.

02/06/2008 UPDATE:

I have some bad and good news. The bad are that a virus had been introduced into my computer, and it had been formatted almost all of my files. This is why I was unable to post the remaining characters. Fortunately, now I'm using a different computer while I fix the other, and I'm going to post the remaining campaign information characters very soon.

The good news, however, are that I have been able to save all the files of Starcraft, including the files of Fall and Rise, because I could keep them all on CDs the day before the attack, so the campaign will not be canceled. However, it is possible that I take a little more to complete and release it because I need to fix the other computer.

Finally, because this problem, I have decided to release all the maps together, as well I can control them better.

It is possible that I can change the introduction, but I'm not sure.

Hmm.. I recall when everyone would use the "virus" or "broken harddrive" excuse for their lack of dedication or boredom on working on the project. Hahaha.

Can't do that anymore. External HDs, backups, FTPs, etc. Really you can't lose data anymore. :)

Hah, I remember the HD crashes! So many good campaigns lost to boredom malfunctioning hard drives.  ::)

Perhaps you think that the virus issue is funny, Lavarinth, but to me isn't. The virus is real. The 24th of May, a spyware was detected on my computer, and some minutes later, my old antivirus detected 143 infections on the harddrive. Just ten minutes after that, a swarm of "cockroaches" appeared on the screen and ate all the icons on the desktop. Believe me, Lavarinth, when I say that the virus is not a lie.

Well, the campaign and the more important data from the computer are safe, thanks in half to my forecast. You mustn't worry, I still have the files and eager to continue with the campaign.

Thanks! Glad you liked it, Meta. The black Zerg are part of the Glycon Brood under the command of the cerebrate Kaloth. :D However, this isn't the best. The Hydralisks near the black hive aren't normal Hydralisks... (hehe) 8) You will have to wait until play the map to view the rest of surprises that I have prepared. ;)

Lavarinth, if you still think that the virus was an excuse for not doing the campaign, I will answer you this way:

I'm not sure, but I believe that they were several Trojans.

Understood? Nearly half of the infections were Trojans, and it is possible that I had some other virus on my computer. :'(
