This seems interesting. This might change the entire course of history.
This seems awfully familiar with the 'Nightmares' part in the comics where Jaina decides to follow Arthas inhis vengeance crusade and in her attempt to stop him from becoming the Lich King she instead becomes the Lich Queen.

I've been thinking that maybe during the campaign, Jaina would become the vengeful one, and not let anything, or anyone, stand in her way.

I want the campaign to start off in the Caverns of Time, where Jaina would launch an all-out assault on the Caverns, with the aid of the Infinite. During the assault, she'll be countered by the Bronze Dragonflight, as well as the other factions, eventually forcing her to take the lives of some of her closest companions for the sake of achieving her goal. But I don't think I'll go that far as to let her take up Frostmourne.

I want to establish this new vengeful, bitter personality from the first map. Make it clear that she doesn't take any BS. I saw a glimpse of the type of personality that I want for her during the cinematic where Vol'jin is made the new Warchief. I kind of want to go with that bitter, angry person, only now fueled by the loss of her true love and a bleak future.

I also started another thread a while back, where we've tossed around a few ideas for this campaign, if you want to check it out: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/idea-factory-462/alternate-timeline-arthas-never-becomes-lich-king-269257/

The problem I have with screenshots like these is that they show the terrain from the best possible angle (probably Editor screenshots); they don't tell me anything about what the player actually sees ingame (unless you have a camera System and these are from the actual ingame perspective or cinematics).

It is not at all my intent to mislead anyone about the content or quality of my map. I do understand your point, and thank you for pointing it out.

At this stage I can't really post any in-game screenshots, because I don't have any other in-game content (i.e. Cinematics, Characters, etc.) other than the terrain itself. I haven't decided whether I'm going to use camera systems or stick to the original camera, but there will be cinematics.

I've managed to upload the map, you're welcome to check it out for yourself:

Jaina was never angry by loss of Arthas, she was more confused and broken. The only reason she became what she is today in WoW, because of death of many countless lives that died when Theramore was destroyed and attacked. Theramore was her home, she was born there. This sparked the final boundaries to hate Horde to the point when she became consumed by vengeance and hatred.

She already was bitter at Horde for killing her Father during Wc3 TFT Orc Campaign, but she knew that it was for the sake of good.
