Hey DudkiSC2 there's a glitch in mission 19-Planetry Incursion.  Researching "Burrow" in the infestation pit for some reason and ironically prevents Swarm Hosts from burrowing altogether.  Specifically the "burrow" command is completely removed after the research finishes.  It's present as long as "Burrow" is not researched and when researched it removes the "burrow" command from all present Swarm Hosts and new Swarm Hosts.  So far only affects Swarm Hosts.

Why I can't go further on second bridge to the last two cannon in mission 15? I can't go to them, because something block them.

I started to play 2 days ago, amazing work by the way, but Protoss cannot be controled in anyway.

Interesting and cool idea, but it's impossible. And a question, this campaign is placed after or before Amon war?

So.. in watching some of jayborino's playthroughs of some missions, I noticed my model/portrait  for Arrow doesn't match the one in his games. 
I had a similar issue with another campaign, where it replaced someone's portrait with Nova, but it also messed up some actual gameplay as a result. I hadn't noticed any gameplay issues with this campaign due to this, but maybe I just don't know what I'm missing?

Do you know if I did something to mess it up or if there is a way for me to fix this? Or is it just because the maps were made awhile ago and something got changed in the blizz files for the game? I do own all the blizz missions (such as nova pack and LOTV) if that makes a difference.

For now I'm stuck on 15, Entrance into Risk. I think the 'casual' difficulty setting is broken.

EDIT: originally quoted more of his post, but it got marked as spam? not sure if it's showing up for others, so reposting with less quoted. 

Everything he said.. holy crap that mission is ridiculous. I'm in the same boat, play brutal co-ops all the time and can do most brutations, but I'd been having trouble even on normal difficulty with some maps. So, I went down to casual on this one, just wanting to cruise through it. NOPE! No chance. I even used a cheat code for 5k of each resource, still couldn't do it. There's attack waves dropping every minute or so, on every side, plus 2 really entrenched/populated bases to clear? Not counting the first expo one, that's not quite as populated with units. That's harder then most blizzard brutal missions. Plus, you've got enemy compositions that are great at cracking static defenses, so it's not like you can just set up a big amount of them and be fine. You can't be clever AND send a ton of units at the player.  For casual, the dropship attack waves that hit on every side should be like 3 marines and a medic, for perspective. Instead, it's like 8 marines, 2 firebats, 2 medics, a siege tank or two, a thor, couple goliaths, etc.. on EACH side, plus the wraiths that trigger from elsewhere when you take an amplifier. I can't even imagine what brutal looks like if that's casual. 

If you just had to get all 4 of them, and not also clear the protoss out, it'd be a lot better. You could possibly cheese it a bit, but for casual/normal settings you could reduce the total number of units everywhere in HALF and it'd still be tougher then it should be for those settings. 
It also didn't progress after I cleared all the protoss, but I'm gonna chalk that up to it bugging out from the cheat codes. I sure hope 'clear all protoss' doesn't mean there's a cloaked observer sitting somewhere I have to track down, like in that one previous map and the burrowed zerg. Not sure why you think that kind of objective would be fun man.. Make a trigger to reveal all the protoss units and structures at that point, or after a certain amount of time, if you really want to use that as an objective.

Still playing my way through, up to mission 12 right now.  Overall, the campaign has been great. 
I could write 10x more text about what's good, but it's easier to point out the few issues I have and you can assume everything else is great :) 

The last few missions have felt like the difficulty is off and/or there's some very tedious or annoying game mechanics. Not talking about difficult puzzles, but rather like on mission 10, with the protoss dudes and hopping between the three entrances to the base, opening doors in each of the others. There wasn't any clues or tricks to solving it earlier, you just had to run around, back and forth, hopping in and out of the drop ship. It was simply trial and error plus a little guesswork. The constant loading in and out of the dropship became very annoying as a result. You couldn't see the other maps, so you had to make an educated guess as to which one got opened if it wasn't in the current map. 

Prior to that, the assassin's creed homage with the war pig was annoying, only because you can be IN grass and he'll see you if any part of the model crosses into another square that isn't in the grass. It was better to just stand behind it and not chance it. Also, his detection radius is not obvious and takes trial and error to figure out. It made solving the door very tricky to figure out, as I was too afraid to go in quickly after him. Spent a ton of time trying to find an alternate entrance. 

Oh, and the Malrick fight with Reeves and the Superfriends needs a better tip/hint about the objective of the fight. I beat him, but I'm STILL not sure if it was because I had to 'overload' him X times, or do X damage while he was overloaded. I just kept kiting, standing on beacons and then eventually I just won. 

I don't want to come across as too negative here, I just binged through these 11 missions in a single sitting (and still going!) so obviously it's great overall. Just some things that kind of annoyed me in the recent missions. Didn't have any such issues with the first 7 or so.

Cant get it to work properly. Windows 10.  I opened the sc2 editor from blizzard app sc2 tab. Opened the first map file. Once it loaded there was a noise playing(zerg type). Opened using the green test icon in the top right corner. Loaded but had the zerg sound playing in background, minimized it closed the  edittor, got to the end of the mission and instead of going in the cave and it saying victory I was then back out to the base with all units at command center, another boss spawned beat him and it just sat there. Sorry for the paragraph but do you know what I did wrong lol. Thanks!
