Ok. So I admit - there may be a RTFM element here - I know next to nothing about SFO so please go gentle. I mostly saw this mod watching a bunch of the YouTube videos from MilkandCookiesTW and liked the look / sound of the difference in stats, battle mechanics and unit rosters.

I'm a TW:W2 veteran (I'm knocking on the door of 2000 hours gameplay) - having played pretty much every race and faction at least once and I tend to go through Mortal Empires campaigns the most.

However - I'm aware of lots of vanilla updates to the races I have been playing recently (Dwarves / Empire / Beastmen).

So here come the questions.

1) Does SFO change the actual ME campaign mechanics? How does this fit with the recent faction campaign updates:

* Empire Elector-Counts
* Orc Loot / Waaargh mechanics
* Recently released Beastmen Herdstone etc
* Recently released Dwarf Forge / Runic magic updates

2) Is SFO mostly geared around scenario and custom battles - or is it totally appropriate to use this for the long-term ME campaigns (or does it completely break the balancing to pieces?)

...

I'm a little nervous about the AI being utterly stupid in terms of:

* Campaign AI enemies not using the new units properly (either in combat, or in army builds)
* Auto-Resolve having no fecking clue how powerful the new units are
* The Campaign AI ending up with crazily OP units and paint the map leaving certain factions with no chance at all
