I Launched a nexw campaign with Sonneneve. It will not be an AAR, I just expose the problems I find :
I work a lot at the beginning in Sorcery, with troops only in my capital and go DEF. I used my diplomats with Sirucil, Aevinwode & Brogenhur. Brogenhur is a heavy menace but can be a potent trade ally to supply my troops. As he blowned my on a previous game, I must work on in.
1. Spells : Siren's song, Lifespring, Woodlore, Morning Glory, Majesty seems to work well (but i don't understand very well how work majesty).
ELEVEN WAY is Buggy, I can't manage to cast this spell on my troops in Sonneneve.
2. Troops :
Good. It works, troops are expensive and good you are always in low troop numbers but lots of strategies, i love forresters.
When you ally with Aevinwode, you gain Feybrun Runners which is of NO interest because forresters are better in all points. Maybe you should give to Aevinwode good infantry troops like "wardancers" or other things like that. Feybrun are subpar vs Forresters but Sonneneve are "High" Elves so it is ok (and Sonneneve has ennemies everywhere...)
That's enough for now.
I was in war with Kazoth & Iron Barony and sued peace.
I'm in war with Cragenwaste, Riesental and allied with Aevinwode. This war will never end until I join with Aevinwode.
Sirucil is hard to make an ally but it seems logical. I will tell more later.
-----------------------------
Final :
I managed to ally with Sirucil and to become a GreatPower while evolving difficulty the new land in CragenWaste and went in peace.
----------------------------
Suggestions :
I think you should add new objectives to this campaign to go on "Elven unity".
You should :
1. Add after the first objective the objective to "unite" with Aevinwode (AKA Conquering Riesental).
2. Add after this second objective, the aim to "unite" with Sirucil (conquering Kazoth and then aim for Hadrigel or Boruvian, hadrigel seems better because they have forrests).
The campaign was too short and "defending" a lot vs everyone 'dwarves, undeads, humans', then after defending, we must go conquering
