You know chr1s, you might want to stop pooping out scenairos at the rate that you do... All that really results from it is a half-baked story with spelling errors on a rather bland un-navigatable map with awful gameplay. Try waiting a bit and spend alot of time on your scenairos... Detail them! Think about them! Test them! Try to understand...
Diarreha always smells awful, looks awful, and gives you an awful feeling after getting out. Not to mention it just keeps coming... A nice big solid turd, on the other hand, doesn't always smell awful, looks solid and healthy, and most importantly, gives you a sense of accomplishment after getting it out. It may take longer to shove it through, but it's certainly worth it.
Think about it chris... Perhaps your a bit younger than most of us, but that doesn't mean you can still try!

Also go to the siege workshop to learn about what kind of eye candy you can add in your scenarios, and remember Rome wasn't built in a day. A scenario that is a really nice may look like to some people "Oh this was made in a day!" While the truth is the maker could have spent a month on it to make it look special.
Also the story is another reason why the player wants to play it, its because the player wants to find out what happens. It doesn't help the player if there are alot of grammer/spelling mistakes, the story also needs to tell where did the hero come from, why does he invades/capture something etc.
The main thing is that 1 five star masterpiece is better than alot of 1-2 star scenarios and campaigns.
If you want to be a great designer then make sure you read all the articles in the siege workshop and download some really great campaigns, like the David campaigns and Ghengis Khan by Ingo van Thiel.

I have not played this campaign yet, however I felt an urge to congratulate with Dean for his enlightening analogy. :D
