@cxong Right now I can't promise much, still, maybe I could create one of my campaigns or modify one, to fit those criteria more than before.
Any ideas on what to do ideally?
My favourite campaign of yours is space pirates; it has a nice variety of missions, good story and good balance. I think it can be improved by making it longer.
Devhell also has a pretty funny premise, but I think it's too short.
I'll try to replay those campaigns some time, it's been a while and I can't remember all of them.
Ok, so until further feedback, Space Pirates it is. Like I said, I can't promise anything right now, but maybe there is time for me to work on the campaign next week.

@cxong BTW: Devhell somehow doesn't play the included songs. Did you unimplement this feature or is this a bug?
Looks like a bug; issue created here #389
@cxong I started working on a campaign that replaces "YOU are the experiment" part I and II. My plan is to work on them in parallel to prevent bigger deviations in style and quality. Just so you know that it might take a little longer to finish the space pirate campaign.
@cxong I sent you a first complete version of the space pirate campaign by mail.
Since Ronny has released all his assets under CC-BY, there's no need to replace the original campaigns, although new ones will still be good. To make C-Dogs SDL fully free now, we just need to exclude the custom campaigns with unknown licenses (cpns, AnttiHukkanen etc.), and offer them as a separate download pack.
Eventually we want to make C-Dogs SDL 100% free (#336), but that means removing the classic C-Dogs campaigns as they are not free.
This is bad because C-Dogs is not much of a game without campaigns. At minimum, we should replace the classic campaigns with an equivalent amount and diversity of campaigns.
The original game features 5 campaigns (2 built-in, 3 as external files) of equivalent length:
The campaigns are also quite varied:
So a good replacement set of campaigns should feature:
So far, we have the following campaigns, but we need more (or improvements):
Sand
Could really be improved with:
Doom
Unfortunately not a very C-Dogs-like campaign, just lots of shooting mooks.
