Campaign and Author
The 9-mission campaign was created by HLP user Vidmaster and first released in October 2007.
Despite being his first work and therefore suffering from balancing issues, blockers and glitches, as well as TBP popularity at an all-time low due to the lack of any new content, the campaign became quite popular. There were multiple re-releases to fix the bugs, making it somewhat difficult to determine the exact number of downloads. The latest version only was downloaded over 1500 times before FH2259 became unavailable, since Vidmaster removed the separate download and packed the campaign with the sequel (and the sequels later).
