Footman16 Presents![]()
An Alliance Campaign
The Second Campaign in the Tales of the Alliance and sequel to Lordaeron's Legacy (It is not necessary to play Lordaeron's Legacy to follow the story)
Made for Version 1.31
Now Fully Voice-Acted by the power of AI!
The Setting
During the period of time known as the Cataclysm, Azeroth was shaken when Neltharion now known as Deathwing awakened and reshaped the continents. During this time, the Alliance and Horde went to war again due to the aggressions of the Horde's Warchief Garrosh Hellscream and the leader of the Alliance, the King of Stormwind, Varian Wrynn. Shortly before the Cataclysm occurred, an exiled Noble from Lordaeron had retaken Durnholde Keep and its surrounding area. After achieving this he declared himself de facto King of Lordaeron. In this period of great unrest there are many heroes and villains trying to survive, claim power or just do what they believe is right.
The Characters
![]()
Lord Candor was once a prominent Lordaeron Noble who ruled his lands sternly but fairly with an unyielding loyalty to his people and the Kingdom of Lordaeron itself. After retaking a slice of the former Kingdom he has now styled himself as King Candor, a move which has proven unpopular with many in the Alliance.
![]()
Commander Istan is a decorated officer in Stormwind's Royal Army. The son of a Knight and Mage he has travelled Azeroth extensively and embodies much of the spirit of the Alliance. Whilst some might fight him lacking in seriousness, his flexibility has proven useful in battle.
![]()
The Warmages of the Kirin Tor are among some of the most powerful on Azeroth and Pyraelus Buren is no exception. Were it not for his eccentric personality he would be a contender for the Council of Six, nevertheless his penchant for destructive magics make him a force to be reckoned with.
Alongside these three main heroes are many side characters with many based on characters from WoW itself such as Admiral Tarlen Aubrey, Thassarian and Koltira Deathweaver.
The Campaign's Features
The Campaign has 10 playable missions, an intro, an epilogue and 2 interludes. The cinematics are skippable as well as a functional game cache.
In terms of gameplay expect the usual Blizzard style of non-base dungeon crawl missions as well base building segments as well as twists on the objectives and defeat conditions. Hopefully you'll enjoy a wide range of fast-pace stressful missions and slower, more relaxed breather levels. There's also new tech-trees for the Forsaken (Thank you Tomoraider for your permission!), the Alliance and a modified Horde tech-tree.
Every map also features easter eggs, secrets and unique dialogue depending upon your actions, I've tried to account for the various ways people might try to play a mission and to reward these with dialogue or differences to the standard gameplay. For example entering a cutscene using one hero compared to another might change the dialogue or completing quest objectives in a strange order or trying to progress without completing objectives have all been foreseen.
Gameplay
Should anyone wish to play the campaign on Twitch, Youtube etc you have my full permission and let me know so I can enjoy watching it and link it here! If anyone wanted to chat about the process of making the campaign that would be fun too.
The YouTuber John Maximous has been nice enough to play and upload a playthrough of the campaign with the first video being this one here:

A very very special thanks to Pyrogasm for helping me fix a couple of the boss fight spells!
A very very special thanks to Bogdan who down versioned this campaign to 1.31 when I saved it in the Reforged editor allowing me to edit it and test it again!
A very very special thanks to Kasrkin for his very in-depth and detailed bug reporting which has vastly improved the quality of this campaign!
Well that's someone I never expected to see again.Commander Istan
I'll probably need to go back and improve it at some point, it doesn't hold up today imo.Time to replay the first one since its been so long before jumping into this one
Cheers! Will fix ASAPHey footman, I thought it best to not wait until I was done with the campaign to tell you the Jandice Barov fight leaves Scholomance permanently as a neutral faction still damageable by spells but it is very hard to fight. I had to cheat against Gandling because of it my troops were just dying and I can't attack every unit individually all the time.
And turning on the autocast for blinding light turns on the autocast of inner fire for priests if they're in the same control group.
Wow, now that is definitely a new bug, how are you achieving these lol? When the camera locks a visibility modifier is created which works for me, what version are you playing on? Not that it should affect it too much but might change some things. Either way, I'll definitely need to check about fixing these bugsLooks like I got the good old softlock for the next mission at the last ship, forsaken forces going after the ships that group up at the original landing site and of course attacking them with the now reduced hp for the ships. And when the first ship appears on the map and the camera locks to it you can't actually see it nor any of the subsequent ones until they land. Not sure if the no boat can be destroyed should be in the optional objective either.
That's all for now, have to go for a while.
Interesting, another new bug, what version are you playing on?Hi, I think i found a bug. In chapter 4 "House of Barov", when you go left from your base to that Alliance camp, cutscene starts, the first line plays out but after that there's just nothing, and nothing reacts, can't ESC, F10 or anything else besides Alt F4. Tried 3-4 times just to see if it'll do it every time and it did.
1.31Interesting, another new bug, what version are you playing on?
Found the cause, skipping the initial cut scene causes it. Uploading fix jn.1.31
You can train Dragonhawks that use itOne last post from me for the day.
You can research animal war despite not being able train any corresponding units.
If the good captain dies in the mission he does not show up in the outro.
Odd situation where scarlets and forsaken didn't attack eachother just to get at me.
Call to arms doesn't work, no militia.
Ballista side quest finishes before they're actually done.
Once the main quest completes it repeats completion, prompting the outro to go a bit crazy.
And finally no crypt fiends.
Mission eight builds up zombies very fast by the time I actually quit there were 240 already even with the first cauldron destroyed.
You can train Dragonhawks that use it![]()
Can't play as in it doesn't work? Or can't play as in you don't have that version? Because the campaign was made, edited and tested in 1.31 so it should work.
If you need to download another version you can from here WC3 Download Archive (1.00 - 1.31.1 + BETA & DEMO) maybe it needs to be 1.31.1
This has been fixed in the latest versionThere seem to be bug from the last ship which made me could't finish my quest and is already my fourth time trying to finish it.
Yeah, he does that, he's just chilling.I undoubtedly missed most of the map, oh and the forsaken, the banshee at least has no mastery just odd considering the other units have 1/1 upgrades.
The footman comes back to stand at his previous spot.
Pyraelus can't actually break crates, cages, and I'm assuming barricades.
Thassarian's forces all leash back to their outside positions and the 'base' eventually built inside is very small.
I have no clue what that red pinging is.
A destroyable cage and buildings around the city, prop limit?
There are seemingly several spots around the city that my two casters and seemingly the ghouls can actually get through.
Araj doesn't leash back to his spot meaning you can just pull him a bit and kill him easily, also spellbound trivializes the fight even more.
The steam engines like to pile up but there's probably not much to done about that.
The dialogue before Candors I believe went by extremely fast.
That's all for now, going to do the finale later.
Hi Baiyu, I'm afraid this campaign is only compatible with 1.31+ as it uses features such as 24-players that are only available in these patches.Hi, Footman 16. I have been waiting for this follow-up story for a long time!
Can I translate this map from English to Chinese? But before that, I need the 1.27 maps.
OK.Oh, I see. The main reason why I need 1.27 is that we Chinese people basically use this version to run wc3. instead of the latest version.if possible. It will be uploaded to the UP combat platform. This is a platform similar to Blizzard Entertainment.Hi Baiyu, I'm afraid this campaign is only compatible with 1.31+ as it uses features such as 24-players that are only available in these patches.
You are more than welcome to translate it just let me know where it's being uploaded afterwards unless its for personal use.
Ah I see, it might be possible to re-create some of the missions so they're 1.27 compatible however this isn't something I'd be able to do or have time to explore, if you know someone that is willing to do this I'm fine with a 1.27 version being madeOK.Oh, I see.

I was dreading to see how much you could break the final missionI'm back albeit a few days later.
Paladins already have divine shield unlocked as default even though the upgrade text says they need it to have it.
I'm assuming that counter in the corner is for valkyr kills but it doesn't work.
Should paladins be able to be possessed, that might just me thinking it's odd a banshee can easily take your most powerful melee. Oh and charm.
I was afraid of that, Koltira is selling his items or something whenever he's back at his base.
Shouldn't the first northern alliance base be still rebuilding? They have everything else left at this point.
Down to one item for Koltira.
Argents being useless since cata.
The southern hero doesn't sell his stuff I'm assuming at least he always just has two items.
Units getting stuck as they're trained from the building being too close to the tree line.
It's rather easy to get stuck at the various barricade lines, AI and player both.
"We can't win conventionally" I love the smell of dead horde in the morning.
For the house spawn event neither the apothecaries or banshees have master training despite all the other units at this point being 3/3.
For the outro the heroes do their best to run around as much as they can only stopping to attack after a good few seconds.
The Skysword got moved out of its guard spot early in the outro messing up where it's supposed to die at as well.
You barely see the retreating line of men behind Candor before they're gone.
Status quo is god huh? I admit I'm a little disappointed it's the same outcome as the battle for andorhol back in cata.
Screenshot order got messed up in upload.

You know I thought I'd made the difficulty a lot more "fair" in this campaign but overall more consistently difficult but clearly I failed, maybe I'm not as good a player as I thought I was as I rigorously tested the final mission to make it as hectic, hard and chaotic as possible.I did like it, there is a noticeable degree of polish and the continued ease of creating a new story in an established very very messy setting. In terms of difficulty though it is not that difficult with your previous two campaigns being more difficult in the Build and Destroy sense but not by much. At times the world feels very small because you don't fight a lot of armies/factions at once especially the forsaken at the bulwark with their main power base close by I'd expect to fight three or more forsaken factions along with the scarlets/scourge.
The elves and dwarves chapter is a bit odd though because I was thinking there were going to be elf and dwarf characters added in the quest to reclaim lordaeron instead it was just the justify tech tree level. Also it's a bit odd the shamanistic wildhammers are supplying steam engines and mortars, maybe they'd bring an army or two because the hinterlands is right there.
Overall the campaign is fun but it does feel like it could use more missions and a higher intensity, it also feels like you never really -use- your tech tree with some alternate objective taking precedence over I want to kick the absolute crap out of those corpses and burn their buildings with the exception being the bulwark and barov.
Hotkey has been changed.i just finish your campaign. here some feedback
1. Can you chance Pyraelus skill 3 hotkey? its "H" and same with hold position
2. Skill 3 Pyraelus has aoe effect and deal dmg to our unit+ally too
3. Item High Councillior's Tunic doesnt give 4 Agi and 5 armor
4. Knight of shiver hand can be posssesion by banshee? i mean they are strongest unit but so easy to counter
5. i cant find chapter 10 when finish it.
this is good campaign anyway.i enjoyed it. Hope to see your next campaign
Ok, will fixLieutenant Commander has no description on the second map.
Since I replayed a few missions without work hanging over me for the next day I noticed somethings I should have the first time.
Something the matter with chapter ten?
This ballista is the only thing not invulnerable in the alliance camp.
While the farseer does just have random names selected whenever the mission starts nazgrel is very specific.
So I did some testing, he can break objects it just takes a lot of hits.
A question I have since the spell completely stops melee units from moving or attacking, is it meant to stop casters from casting?
The ogre juggernaut and orc frigate on the right both attack the middle battleship while the orc frigate on the left never shoots. Once this shootout ends the two side battleships turn around for a moment before going forward.
Noble aura's unit effect says melee instead of damage.
After the cinematic Candor is still outside the lodge despite being right next to the ranger in the cutscene.
Nothing in the cage?
Are the scholo undead meant to start out with master training? Maybe eventually get 1/1 too.
While Candor does get moved after the cinematic it is no where near the priest.
I'm not actually sure how I didn't remember to mention this but the scarlets are using the elf sorceress and not the later scarlet one used later in the campaign.
There's a single rifleman in the crusade, on a side note I miss the pre retcon crusade with Alexandros as the original highlord.
The lieutenant commander and Iralion say the exact same thing.
You can view the orb of fire in the vault but you have no option for castle upgrade.
This mission has a problem with quest discovered instead of quest updated compared to the rest of the missions.
Hey man, so its not a good idea to triple post, instead use the edit button if you need to add or change something to a postI have version 1.30, a little in the middle, I go through, where there is a thousand on the map, and then every time I open the game, it looks like there is some kind of bug
You mean the first interlude? What patch are you on?i got a problem in the campaing when i get the frist epilogue When the epilogue is finished, the screen goes black, it stays like that without being able to do anything about it, I don't even get the menu and neither the next chapter and I only get the music from the main screen after finishing the epilogue and I don't know what to do
