Fellowship of the NATO
Created by Sir Gake of DOH
(Also known as the Duke of DOH)


Map Info:

Follow the story of Griff the Mogatu as he fulfills his destiny to free the land of Nypheron from the Chaos Enforcer (CEF). To do so, he will need the aid of his fellow Nipplins Against Tyrannical Orders (NATO) and uncover the secret of the ring.

10 playable maps based on melee combat style with in-game cinematics (1 is a dungeon map). No annoying side quests or purpose missions, just build your army and destroy!!



-----

Features:

* Absolutely NO MODDING. Everything was done in the WC3 editor, therefore installation is simple. Put this file in the Warcraft 3 campaigns folder.

* 3 In-game Cinematic maps - Teaser, Intro, Ending.

* ALL playable maps have in-game cinematics to move the story.

* You will command 3 unique races - The noble Gnolls, The ancient Elves, and The technological Dwarves.

* Game story is a parody of various movies - Conan, Braveheart, Lord of the Ring, Gladiator etc... And various music clips from them are used in the game.

* 9 of the playable maps are combat/melee maps with prebuilt enemy/ally bases. NO annoying side quests. Maps must be won through attrition. Plenty of resources, to ease the economic aspect of the game, focusing more on strategy and combat.

* The AIs are modified melee AI, NOT trigger AI. Therefore game play differs game to game and operates like melee games. These maps are designed for players to build their armies and destroy. No annoying protect this or escort that. If you are a hardcore melee combat player like me, you will love this campaign.

* There are some tricks to ease the game though. Eg. use seige to clear trees to reach key components in the game.

* No unfair matches. Players will always have at least 1 AI ally. They can be either extremely helpful or really annoying, you decide.

* Some maps will have a random weather generator to make the game more realistic and enjoyable. One map has thunder/lightening that will shake your screen!

* 1 map is a dungeon map. You will control 3 heroes and collect loot and goodies.

* Final map, you will have a very special ally. Spoiler in the screenshot preview.

- Major grammar/spelling corrections for all the maps.
- Map 1 Gnolly Gnolly: Moved a couple of the cannon towers so they are not hidden.
- Map 6 Dark Forest: Fixed an issue with Samhobenji's Dispel research icon not displaying properly
- Map 8 Kaz Modan: Major fix on JD's defense ability, now available.
- Map 11 Rise of Zoan: Fixed Griff's pathing so he doesn't run into the door.


Author's Note:
- Please make sure your music is turned on and volume at MAX.
- Remember maps can only be won if you destroy all enemy buildings, sometimes players may have missed a tower behind some trees.
- Issue: Playable map 2 is the most visually beautiful map I've ever made. However, the bridges in the map may end up as choke points when your allies block them. Simply wait until they move or do what I do - kill them.
- Hint: Using the right units and skills are crucial to this campaign.
- Hint: In the dungeon map, your ally creeps will spawn periodically to aid you, use them to your advantage.


I made this campaign a long time ago, before Frozen Throne even came out. It had really good ratings and I've always wanted to update it. I had planned on making 2 sequels, but you know... life.

By today's standard, with all those incredible modders out there, this campaign is not as impressive anymore. Remember, it was made when Warcraft 3 first came out. Though I've updated it into the Frozen Throne campaign file, I retained much of the game without FT influence (was thinking of using FT in sequels). However, there are several aspects of this campaign that you won't find elsewhere.


Enjoy

Your decreption doesn't say much.I will download and play.

Are you the maker or you just uploaded???

I made this campaign a long time ago

I think that says it all, until proven otherwise.

But yes please improve your description with screenshots, and further information about what happens in the game, and the combat we are likely to see.

Please improve your description, do explain more of the game visuals, how to play, what needs more of the game, and better yet screen shots, you can look more info in our forum base about proper map description making at tutorials. If its all done, let me know.

The older version has been around for a while, mostly in separate map files. You can google it "Warcraft 3 FOTN" and they can be found on nibbits, epicwars, etc... That version does not work anymore, that is why I made this update and combined all the maps into 1 campaign file.

This goes in the campaign folder, not the maps folder.

Alright, when I have time I'll look through the forum on the description format.

Thanks!

Yeah, I use to do a lot of these campaign, modding things... I made 3 campaigns for Starcraft 1, and for the really old guys... who might remember Super Dune 2? Yeah I'm Power C.

Really had planned on making this into 3 campaigns, but then somebody introduced me to DOTA.... and well, that's all I play now.

*sigh*
