Dodona: Springleaf Pier

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
The Isle of Dodona: Springleaf Pier

Backstory:
Many years after the Sundering of Azeroth, night elves made way for the use of nature magic. Now residing in the forests of Kalimdor in Ashenvale for over thousands of years, an isle has recently been discovered in the nearby seas. In these lands reside the "Dodonians", a vast population of night elves who have dedicated themselves to practice pacifism and peace-making with their surroundings. You, as Rhea a Priestess-in-training has set foot on Dodona on the behalf of Tyrande Whisperwind to practice the arts they have in store. Explore the land as you find conflicts, friends and foes...

Why create this map?

RP ( Roleplay, Story Acting ) is very underrated. As a fan of RP I have decided to create templates where players can explore and fight monsters and do what ever they want with their surroundings. My aim is to create decent/good looking terrains and templates for Players ( that's you! ) to explore as well as providing a good view and some decent ambience. This also aimed at RP players who like to Roleplay with their units and allies!


What does it feature?

"The Isle of Dodona: Springleaf Pier" features a 128x128 map filled with Dodonians, the inhabitants of Dodona. It features some renamed units and a diversity of places to explore and roleplay in! This map features a lot of Dodonian encampments filled with night elves as well as troll/neutral settlements that are completely benevolent towards you. A group of Nightsent warriors are keeping fel orcs at bay in the upper right corner.


Improvements? Updates?

Of Course! I am willing to update this map of any mistakes/errors I have made.


Credits!

Templates are not meant to be played. Decide whether is meant to be used as a template: Template | HIVE or a playable map. If the latter, remove the template tag. EDIT: Nothings happening on this map. There's just one player and a bunch of units...

I found it peaceful and harmlessly enjoyable.
The intent is to explore and I did.
A couple of minor things I picked up on (not sure how intentional)
-Rightmost Starlit fountain was enemy controlled
-The ramp leading from the bottom left village to the ancient of lore above it could not be walked

I've not heard of roleplaying in these maps by yourself, I'm much more used to roleplaying with others, but its an interesting concept. Unfortunately I feel like such a roleplay driven experience would still be better joined by another.

1) Whoops, I forgot I removed Teal from the game. Gonna fix that rn

2) The ramp will be fixed just forgot that as well.

Yes... I have only uploaded this map as my first map, it is still in progress. BUT in the future there will be changes. At the moment, I am remaking a map exactly like this one except for two players including a fully functional custom race. This map will be modified to fit more players in the future. Thanks for your kind advice bugs will be fixed right now!

EDIT:

Nothings happening on this map. There's just one player and a bunch of units placed on it. Even as a template, it is very plain.
Please do not use tags like that. This is in no way a Story/RP. It's a template at best.

Awaiting Update.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION
  • A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
  • A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
  • Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.
