Dude, if you want to make one, just make one. You don't need anyone's approval to do so.

Yeah, it works the other way round - you create something interesting and then you go grabbing everyone's attention with it. :roll:

Dude, Darth, we're having trouble enough with the Dark Elves campagin. Unless you can code a little, I suggesst you do something else. Good luck though :D

you seem to like polls.
if you make a campaign then it is guartanteed at least a 100 or so people will play and at least ten will like it.
Oh no look out its a ray gun.
You should move to avoid the rays
the rays are coming out of the gun
if you are hit by the rays
you will be shot by the rays
the rays are fast so you should be fast to
can you win against the fast rays from the gun?

And 0.1 might help. Wait - that's not a whole person.

However, if you put it on the campaign server, at least 500 willl try it, given enough time, and that will be enough to possibly make a whole person. :D

If you make it to impress other people, you could be wasting our time. Make it for yourself, and give it a good story, and it is guaranteed that you will not be wasting your time. Campaigns do not all need custom art, and you can use placeholders - make the art low on your priority list. Once people start to like your campaign then some of them may help.
Here are the three things required for a good campaign: good story, good gameplay, and good grammar. :D

I dont want to make it JUST to impress other people. I just want to know that the campain will be played. I dont want to waste anyones time espcially other peoples. I just need some help considering that this is my first campain. I already have a good camain base so all i need is some help. Also I DO need to make all the untis custom art. If u havent noticed there is only ONE Troll unit in all of wesnoth (Not including other ranked units). So i need ALOT of custom art and i cant draw very well (As u can see from my avatar).

Your campaign will be tried by lots of people. What happens from there depends on how well you ignore all of them and concentrate on making a campaign interesting, satisfying, and fun only for you. Until you come up with new art, just use existing troll graphics with the new unit configs. You could recolor them slightly so playing is not a total loss. My only point is don't let it stop you from getting started. Best of luck.

Yeah the content of the campaign is far more important than the overall theme in terms of making people play it.

If you can make an interesting storyline and set of units out of a race of trolls, then go for it. If you can't, then don't. If you're here to ask whether people think that an interesting storyline and/or unit set from a race of trolls is possible, well, even if it is possible, you're probably not going to be able to do it.
