Forsaken V2.0

[Kotol]

I have ideas for the Lost Ones, but I might have to put them on ice until I can get the models I need. They're my least liked faction, so even getting motivation to revamp them is low.

What about the Wretched faction, which you almost completed about 10 years ago but unfortunately your map file got corrupted, and which you considered one of the best and favorite maps you have ever made? Are you planning to make it again with overhauled units, improved spells and better mechanics?

They were the best "at the time." By todays standards they're awful. If I were to somehow have the file now, they'd be worthless and would have to be started from scratch. As for that, I don't really want to make the Wretched. I have so many elves already.

I'm sort of wondering, if it comes up saying that it's a 5 player map when it seems to be designed for 8, is that a glitch that slipped through the cracks?

why am i mentioned in the credits? i couldn't find any of my models in the map
was one of them perhaps used in a previous version and author forgot to update the credits (and fix Gluma's name too)?

edit: i have checked out the available previous version and couldn't find anything either
maybe i am going blind or senile or maybe it's a mystery

The said Campaign has lots of Lost Ones custom models.

Yeah, I have no idea. Noticed that too.

Naw. That's on me. Forgot to update the page for the credits.

Those models are the same ones I have issues with. All the same animations.

Since you've put the Lost Ones faction on ice until you can get the models you need and don't want to create the Wretched faction, you will create new factions (Tauren, Sand Trolls, San'layn, Zandalari, Emerald Nightmare, Pandaren, Shadowmoon Clan, or one of the other orc clans, etc.) or you will work on your War of the Spider - Threads of Conflict (Living Nerubian) campaign (or you will take a break for a while and revamp the Lost Ones once you have the Lost Ones models you need). If you're looking to create new factions, I'd love for you to organize the "Which Race/Faction would you like to see?" poll again, like you did in 2014. There are a lot of HIVE members here, and it would be great to create a new faction based on their wishes.

I was debating Shadowmoon, but again, lack of models. At least theirs a building set and a few really good models, but not enough for an entire faction. Sand Trolls and Tauren are the most likely candidates for a new faction. I don't know how many members there actually are that are that interested. I have no clue about the campaign, might be doing something different.

Overall, maybe one of the best versions of Forsaken faction next to tomorider's one.

Funny thing is that I commended you of removing third resource from Worgen faction just to see it being added here. But I must admit that this version is a lot better.

Small nitpick. Valkyr are not any more part of the Forsaken since Sylvanas used all of them in Shadowlands.

Also, really sad to see Lost Ones on hold, because I was really looking forward to see them updated..

Small nitpick. Valkyr are not any more part of the Forsaken since Sylvanas used all of them in Shadowlands.

Maybe this is Forsaken pre-Shadowlands, where Valkyr and Sylvanas were part of the Horde, not serving the Jailer.

Overall, I liked this custom race, @Wa666r. It's strong, it's good; however, I would suggest one change: make dark archer ability initially disabled, because its the main drainer of third resource due to each attack.
If @tomoraider would ever complete his Curse of Forsaken campaign new version, I would like to see something combined with your "Forsaken" design.

I recommend it to anyone who likes Sylvanas, enjoys Ozzy Osbourne's music, and wants to play as undead, but in a different way.
