well, in my mind, campaign specific units should be (as much as possible) restricted to units that are really specific to the campaigns (heros, and very specific units like the desert elves) lots of UMC add some units that are not campaign specific, but here to add more variety to the recruitments... these units (once introduced) are likely candidates to become "mainline but not included in any faction" which is the rational for the complete art requirement... > > Also, it would help to have a description of _how_ a campaign would be > added - meaning, what does the campaign creator have to do to get it > added?
