A somewhat nice rendition of a WoW instance. Could use more custom scripted stuff though since mostly it's Warcraft III gameplay mechanics.

- 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.

@Faqka, you are welcome 
Stratholme.
Poor city with an ill, cursed fate.
At first, I thought that you would include parts of Tier 0.5 questline into it, where we need to defeat Baron Rivendare in time limit of 45 minutes (if I remember correctly), but you decided to add some fancy guest from otherside, I see.
Sadly, I cannot betray the deciever after betraying my own allies
Overall, I liked this better than Onyxia Lair, but maybe that day I was in the mood for classic long dungeon runs, so I didn't mind plenty of walking from each city side. If you aimed to recreate a dungeon in Warcraft 3 without major gameplay changes, then you did it right, and hence all original design flavors came here, too.

@The Nightmare Book Thanks for the run. Now, looking at it again, I realized that you forgot the Scarlet Crusade items once you destroy the blacksmith hehe
