Not really a bad map, but a clear majority (including terrain, triggers, cinematics etc.) is made by Blizzard, you've only made it multiplayer and balanced it a bit, so the changes are too few and thus, Rejected

Good map but why do Thrall and Jaina have inventory full of Mask of Death.

I think Asomath already made one of these

Well, everybody try to edit this map. But, only 1 of it can be a true masterpiece only.

Battle of Mount Hyjal is a map that turns one of the chapters from one of Blizzard's campaign into a three player map where you can play as either Night Elf, Orc, or Human in your quest to stop the Burning Legion from reaching the World Tree.

The terrain was the same as in Blizzard's single player version of the map, so even though it was rather good, all credits for the terrain goes to them. The same goes for the triggers that also were taken from Blizzard, and were only slightly modified to work with three players as they were originally designed for only one player. The cinematics were also Blizzard's and weren't changed at all.

One of the things I disliked about this map was that whenever your base was destroyed, you were out of the game and were given no chance to fall back and fortify the next player's base.

Another thing worth mentioning is that no matter how good or bad you are at this map, it'll always take 45 minutes to win, if you haven't lost before 45 minutes, that is.

The description here on the Hive could be a bit improved by adding some screenshots etc. Keep in mind when writing the description that it's the only thing that possible downloaders base their first opinions regarding the map on. So a bad description could result in less downloads and vice verca.

The map breaks no map submission rules, doesn't crash and is scanned for viruses.

To summarize, the map follows the rules here on the hive and it isn't really a bad map, but the problem is that the majority of it is made by Blizzard, and not by you. All you've done basically is made the map multiplayer and a little balacing, and because of that, this cannot be approved.

1/5 (Unacceptable) and voted for disapproval.
