Hi folks!

Here it is! The altered melee with Dwarf Campaign units! :mrgreen: The altered melee is now in the grand version of Alpha 1 (the test phase before beta), so there are many untested things, but I tried to fish out all the bugs I could find.

Download Twisted Meadows DC here:
Twisted Meadows DC Alpha 1

Features

General
- All standard units and tech tree is unaltered! You can play it as standard melee if you wish!
- Humans, Orcs, and the Undead have additions, like those given in The Frozen Throne (an extra building, new units, new heroes)!
- Night Elves do not have extra units as such, but they have an alternate tech tree, which allows you to play them as Faceless Ones (includes some preliminary buildings, not the whole tech tree)
- Made several changes to the campaign units to fit them to a melee game

Humans
- New Heroes: Master Elementalist and Dragon Princess
- New Units: Battle Golem, Guardian Golem, Assault Golem
- New Buildings: Golem Factory - Workshop can be upgraded to Golem Factory, which has Golems and their upgrades

Orcs
- New Heroes: Gnoll Ranger and Gnoll Usurper
- New Units: Gnoll Poacher and Gnoll Assassin
- New Buildings: Gnoll Hut - Contains Gnolls and their Upgrades (requires Barracks to build)

Undead
- New Heroes: Doomlord and Archlich
- New Units: Infernal and Doom Guard
- New Buildings: Demon Gate - Sacrificial Pit can be upgraded to Demon Gate, which produces Doom Guards and Infernals (requires Black Citadel and Temple of the Damned)

Night Elves
- New Heroes: Faceless One Mindflayer and four evil versions of old heroes: Demon Disciple, Satyr Lord, Priestess of Vile Darkness, and Assassin (all come from Altar of the Old Gods; an upgrade to the normal altar that requires Bottomless Pit)
- New Units: Sludge Larva, Protoplasms, Sludges (slowing), and Brain Golem (da uber unit; unnerfed!)
- New Night Elf Buildings: Bottomless Pit (the key to the alternate tech tree)
- New Faceless One Buildings: Altar of the Old Gods, Nameless One, Tentacles, and Brain Fermenter (requires Tree of Eternity) (all are built by Sludge Larva)
- New Upgrades: Protoplasm Enlargement

Known features:
- Hero names are unchanged (no new names updated)
- Some tooltips are still unupdated
- Any added units may be unbalanced (too bad, too good, too cheap, too expensive, too slow to build, too fast to build, etc.)
- Malbodion does not have his custom model and skin (it took too much space, so I removed it)

You can now play the map and send any suggestions, bugs, and balance changes to this thread. Happy meleeing! Feedback is appreciated.

Cheers!
