This bundle is marked as lacking. It fails to meet the standard requirements and may only have minor use.
Overview
The island nation of Kul Tiras has always been defined by the sea. Forged by endless storms and battles against pirates and monsters of the deep, the Kul Tirans became unmatched sailors, shipwrights, and warriors. Under the proud banner of House Proudmoore, they command one of the greatest naval powers on Azeroth.
This custom race brings the might of Kul Tiras into Warcraft III. Players can now command fleets of disciplined soldiers, sea-born mages, and tide-touched warriors, combining human strength with the mystic power of the ocean.
The Kul Tiras army is built around durability, naval technology, and water magic. Strong infantry and spellcasters allow flexible strategies, while defensive structures and upgrades help control the battlefield.
Gameplay Style
The Kul Tiras faction emphasizes resilience, area control, and magical support. Their units are slightly slower than those of traditional human armies, but compensate with higher armor and powerful synergy between heroes and spellcasters.
The race is fully functional for melee gameplay, featuring an AI opponent that can be selected in custom games. Whether commanding them or fighting against them, players will experience a unique, sea-inspired playstyle.
Features
Fully playable custom race
Four original heroes
Unique buildings
Custom abilities themed around the sea and storms
AI compatibility
Balanced for melee play
Reforged and Classic compatible

Buildings and Economy
Kul Tiras structures are inspired by naval design — solid, functional, and built to withstand assault. Many structures have wooden and metallic components resembling ships and docks.

Barracks – Trains Kul-Tiras Guards, Crossbowman, and Kraken Knights.

Temple of the Tides – Trains spellcasters like Hydromancer, Champlain and Spellbreaker also the researches upgrades.
Harbor Guard Tower – Provides ranged defense.

Strategy
Kul Tiras armies are strongest when played methodically. Build a solid defense early, then push with upgraded units and supportive spellcasters.

Combine the Admiral’s leadership and summons with your front line’s durability to outlast opponents. Proper timing of spells such as Thunder Clap and Monsoon can completely turn the tide of battle.

- A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
- A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
- Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.
