Azeroth Wars New Legends

[manmordor]

Hi Manmordor here. Im just going to tell you guys a little about my map im making its called Azeroth Wars New Legends and will play 100years after Wc3:TFT. Here's a quick review about it.

Current Stage: In progress
Staff
Staff leader-Manmordor

Objektive: Destroy your enemis (like in all AW maps ;P)
Gameplay: The Map is going to be a Build and conquer map with a little rpg element in it ^^. You get to choose from two locations where you start with your Faction and you will start with a special unit which can choose from two hero paths.
Income is gained by controlling Control points that generate income every x seconds
There will be lots of Events Ingame(i will try to make a random event generator so that every game the events start at a different time and are never in the same order
Like the Titel says there are going to be New legends in Azeroth whom you shall command and decide their destiny
also some heroes will have two ways of being a legend so theirs more changes to gameplay then following one destined route. ;P.

[pangahas]

Would your choice of legend determine your starting location on the map?

 

[manmordor]

Would your choice of legend determine your starting location on the map?

Must likely but im not sure yet if I should do that but one thing is for sure that you will have a hero who can go two paths

{EDIT}
Overall=25%
Story=30% (had to rewrite all of the chapters so there will be a late update of the first chapter)
Terrain=25% (rough rough draft finished)
Spells=25% (rough idea of the spells)
Units= 40% (still deciding who will get what)
My job im doing for now=Writing the lore of the 4th war.

 

[Dark Soul]

Hmmm... Explain the gameplay more. Will it be like a normal warcraft 3 melee game or more of a RPG sort of? By the looks of the race and characters, I would say it is better suited as an RPG. Oh, need help with terrain?

Ok will do ;D it'll take a bit so please bear with me and Dark soul i'd like it if you could do a rough terrain of Azeroth since my friends sucks at doing big maps (hes much better with details)

{EDIT}
*bump*
Updated the Gameplay description

 

[Dark Soul]

Say, can you send me the current map so I can work on the terrain?

 

[takakenji]

you should really get some help on your spelling (found many mistakes, if you have typos in your game it usually reflects onto your rating)

otherwise, this sounds cool

 

[Tyarel]

Hiho Tyarel (Whiteheaven120 in WC3) here


I'm the lazy terrainer . Ill beginn my work after i created my tactic how the make the rough terrain. If some of guys are pro terrainer and have tipps for me say it . Ty for helping Dark Soul

 

[manmordor]

Thanks for the comments and I'll try to get my other terrainer to do a that Dark Soul

{EDIT 1}
*Update*
I updated a Few starting Positions for the races

{EDIT 2}
Well i came on today and to my surprise its a close one right now in the Pool
15days left to vote come on guys/girls

{EDIT 3}
*bump*
No feedback for 3days
im starting to feel lonly

 

[pangahas]

Add more details..like gameplay, heroes, features and also screenshots etc..that would boost people's interest on this project..

 

[Dark Soul]

Sorry, cant really work on terrain. Finishing up my map xD but will get to it once im done. im working on 3 projects >.>

 

[manmordor]

Add more details..like gameplay, heroes, features and also screenshots etc..that would boost people's interest on this project..

ok will do with the gameplay, heroes and features but i have to wait for Dark Soul to finish a bit of the terrain to give screenshots or i could do little maps in WE and give you guys a look at the models that i already have for different troops.

And Dark Soul that has to suck to work on 3 projects at the same time and i pretty much alot of free time till spring break.. So you have a lot of time to terrain no need to rush and screw it up ^^

{EDIT 1}
First Update of the description (Almost full of the Lightbringers and Remenants) now only their demi Heroes are missing and then its the scourge's turn to get a nice description

I also just wanted to say that im writing the 4th war (which already took place in my map) and will post it before the map is released if i have enough chapters already


GUYS/GIRLS its your turn to choose Demi Heroes for the factions (max 7 demi heroes per faction) so act quick and tell me what his/her job is in that faction

Example: Leon II, Son of the Grandmaster and Captain of the 2nd Infantry Regiment. Has the ability to rally his troops giving them 10%more damage and 10%more armor.

{EDIT 2}
*bump*
no demi hero ideas guys/girls????
(coming soon Chapter 1 of the 4th war Lore)

 

[Dark Soul]

Say, what exactly do you want the terrain to look like? An actual wacraft world one? I gotta say, im better at coming up with my own stuff. xD

 

[manmordor]

Well it should have a little resemblance to the warcraft world but you can add your own stuff to it. Just make so that we can at least think about it being like that and you can find some hints in my description for instance the north of the eastern kingdom has been taken by the scourge so alot of the old terrain should look undead like

 

[Dark Soul]

Got it, so for example at the eastern kingdom you want destroyed villagers and dead peasants etc?

 

[manmordor]

yep you got it ^^ so anything that would fit with the undead theme in eastern kingdoms like making a infected village

{EDIT 1}
Well only 3days left for voting.. Make it count ^^ and anyone who wants a demi hero in the map just pm me and ill put him/her in it (will also be included in my story)

{EDIT 2}
Last voting day and the votes are pretty close right now Satyrs and other creeps are in the lead by only one vote

Posting chapter one of the Lore on wensday

{EDIT 3}
The Poll is closed and the winner is..*insert drumroll* Satyr and other Creeps which means i got a load of work waiting for me xD. Don't forget to log on on Wensday and read the first chapter of "The 4th War" (The story before the starting of AWNL)

 

[Dr. itsekk]

Yay, my idea won. But i guess you could also include black orcs as Night Hunters too. I just thought that especially satyrs should be there, since they are the Night Elves sworn enemies.

And, can i promote myself as one of your demi heroes? In that case it would be something like: Dr.itsekk the evil undead genius. Anyway, good luck.

 

[manmordor]

Maybe ill put the black orcs as Satyr slaves and i like the demi hero how about i write it like this

Dr.Itsekk the undead Head Apoctacary Master. He researches new ways to evolve the plague... etc

{EDIT}
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The first chapter is coming up first on friday since i have some exams

 

[manmordor]

*bump*
sorry for not posting anything for a short while i was bedridden sick and still am lightly sick
hope im better soon so that i can finally post that damn chapter.

 

[manmordor]

So far only 4 Demi heroes have been suggested to me 1public and 3privat and they are
Public
Dr.Itsekk. Head of the Scourge Apoctacary and 5th in Command of the scourge army

Privat
Kevin. Trains the archers of the Remenants of Stormwind and is friends with David
David. Trains the priests of the Remenants of Stormwind and is friends with Kevin
Leon II. Son of the Grandmaster of the Lightbringers and commander of the 2nd Infantry Platoon

All=approved will work on their skills which will probally be an aura for most of them.

Manmordor out.

 

[manmordor]

I have almost rewritten the whole chapter 1 (26damn pages) should be done this week

 

[The_Key]

I can do some terraining, send me a PM if interested

 

[manmordor]

*bump*
no new news

 

[manmordor]

Well i decided instead of writing the whole lore before ill just give a summary of what happend and then ill slowly start writting every chapter in detail

 

[manmordor]

Update: added a new playable race
and looking for a terrainer who wants to make azeroth

 

[Linaze]

The first post was so ugly that it made me completely uninterested in reading even the very first sentence. I suggest greatly improving its attractiveness.

 

[manmordor]

Well Linaze if you would give me some tips instead of just saying its ugly then i could make it better
