This map takes place after Prince Arthas Menethil returns home and kills his father, King Terenas. He left his two Death Knight Captains, Falric and Marwyn, to claim the city.
Both Falric and Marwyn have been driven out since, thanks to the valiant efforts of the Order of the Silver Hand.
Now, Uther has fortified Capital City and has sent a call for aid throughout the kingdom and its allies. Prince Arthas needs to take the Urn of King Terenas from Uther so that he can take Kel'thuzad's remains to Quel'thalas.
Thus, the Fall of Lordaeron is set in motion.
In this Hero Defense map, you will take command of a legendary warrior of the time and age, with characters ranging from Mograine the Ashbringer, Ranger Lord Hawkspear of the high elves of Quel'lithien, Aelir from the Last Druid campaign, Dartol from Dartol's Wand of Transformation and many others, down to the standard Valonforth and Isillien.
Your task is simple. Weather down the storm of Scourge might, facing tough, constant waves with familiar faces such as the dreadlords, Baron Rivendare, Ras Frostwhisper, Ul'haik Hadanot, Anub'arak and eventually Prince Arthas himself.
----
Important! The Flag next to the throne room can be used to purchase waves of reinforcements from allied kingdoms. Call upon battalions from Stromgarde, Quel'thalas, Gilneas, Dalaran and more to save the day!
Your ultimate objective is to kill the bastard who murdered the king.
Arthas.
