Legacy of the Damned Reworked v1.4

[raypack]

do you have an estimation when it will release? i already not patient to try it, all your maps really suit my taste

Well my man I will not lie to you, probably not until the end of the year.
Mostly because I want to make a couple of missions on my own for the Lordaeron part of the campaign and split the Northrend missions into more missions. Northrend will still be the same but the 3 missions will be split into 6 (with new/enhanced maps). So far I've planned 13 missions in total.
I am first doing the ones in Lordaeron from the original campaign, then I will do the 2 missions I want to add and then move to Northrend.
Plus I don't have that much time to work on the maps but I will try my best to finish it in half a year.

PS: I could potentially make a thread in Map Development and just upload what I've done so far there.
Any ideas/advices are more than welcome!

You loaded a save file and still did not work?

Now that I remember, it crashed for me but only once from 50 times.
I recommend saving every 10 minutes and in a new save file, don't overwrite the old one.

For me it crashed, I loaded it and then crashed again so what I did was wait for the next attack wave of the enemies and after that it did not crash.
Again, it happened only once to me from 50 times but unfortunate that it happened to you.
If it keeps crashing just use the cheat code "allyourbasearebelongtous" to proceed to the next mission if you wish to finish the campaign.

Awaiting your review!

Finally I have finished this campaigns

Mission 1

This is my guidelines to destroy farm in each path

arthas path - I use arthas animate dead to rise corpse and abomination to attack the human farm and leave zombie near the path to kill survivor

sylvanas path - I use banshee and charm skill to control human strong unit and send them to destroy farm

kel'thuzad path – I use necromancer to rise skeleton attack the human farm. It has the castle in kel'thuzad path with a lot of group off enemy so I bring arthas to help kel'thuzad by using Potion of Lesser Invulnerability and correct 2 tombs to made arthas stronger

Mission 2

The most important thing in this chapter is to manage your troops put arthas in the front to kill enemy , put necromancer ghoul and meat weapon in the middle and don’t let them attack because enemy will try to kill your weakness unit frist , leave 2 abomination behind to fight against green unit that come from behind

Mission 3

Burning legion unit is no food cost so try to steal it from varimathras

For some reason you can’t steal acolyte to build undead base

Mission 4

This is one of the most hardest mission. I try 4-5 times to find the best way to past this mission

Step 1 – before attack the blood elf to set this base you MUST BRING YOUR TROOP TO DESTORY THE MURLOC BASE base because this mission has crazy attack wave so reduce enemy force is so important.

Step 2 - destory the small blood elf group then leave 1 farm behind then bring your troop to kill sappion.

Step 3 - Set the base and bring arthas , sappion and acolyte to build black citadel to defend nerubian base because enemy will attack with the huge troop.

Step 4 - buy 30 undead battle ships to attack lady vashj base and blood elf base

Step 5 - Attack naga and blood elf in front of nerubian base by train many of nerubian storage to use them protect your crypt fiend

Mission 5

This mission is easier than the original because varimathras base is so strong and we can open the portal in bring strong burning legion troop.

Don’t forgot to buy 3 staff of teleportation it so important to next mission

Mission 6

The most important thing is don’t try to destroy any of undead base because it impossible.

When enemy attack your friend use staff of teleportation bring your hero to help them.

End this mission quickly as possible by using 6-7 frost wyrms to destroy demon gate

Mission 7

I can’t play I have to cheat this mission if I could play I will give staff of teleportation to garithos

Mission 8.1-8.3

Nothing change

Mission 9

Why did you change anub'arak skill ? 5 Carrion Beetles is better than 1 nerubian warrior .

Mission 10

Prepair yourself this mission is so hard like mission 4 and 7

Step 1 – bring arthas and anub'arak to protect the obelisk from illdan lady vashj and orange base , they will attack you with huge troops

Step 2 – destroy kael'thas base first because it is the weakness base

Step 3 – after destroy kael'thas base force on lady vashj , orange base then take over the obelisk

But after destroy all of his servant base I don’t know why illdan stop attack me so I take over others 3 obelisks so easy

Overall if you like original legacy damn this campaign will made you so excited with new area , new unit ,and new mission but there is a lot of bugs to fixed. 7.5/10

Thank you for playing and giving your review my man!
Yes, this is far from being perfect. I was still very bad at making/editing maps while I was creating this.
Be assured that my next project will be more polished. It's already looking nice. I'm finishing up The Cult of The Damned and moving on to The Culling soon enough!

I will wait for playing your scourge of lordaeron absolutely, but sorry to said that i not really excited about scourge of lordaeron because i have already try a lot of scourge of lordaeron version from a lot of creater.
I like leagcy damn of the most of Warcraft 3 original campaign, i will wait for updated version in someday probably v1.5 or v2.0
And I really enjoyed your curse of blood elf campaign.
Good luck for your scourge of lordaeron.

I see. Very understandable because there are many scourge of lordaeron edits. I'm still glad that you will play it.
I wanted to do eternity's end campaign but before that I decided to do another one to upgrade my skills with the world editor since doing the night elf campaign will be a lot of work because I plan to make more missions and vastly change some of the original ones because I think that there was a lot of cut content from it and unexplored mechanics.

Yeah, legacy of the damned is phenomenal. I have a current v1.5 of it on my computer (not on site) but I think it needs to be re-done from scratch.
I will either do it after scourge of lordaeron or after eternity's end campaign.

Thanks!

I decided to replay your campaign. I still not completed yet. It was not as bad as I remembered, but it has definetly problems. Some of the maps are seems to be edited: extended map there and there, removed creep camps, but some time that's all. One of the maps are just flat terrain, no hills and no elevation at all. All is feel's like it's "Work in Progress" campaign (which is true). I handled this campaign as a 100% done, but no, it's not. Some of the units are not balanced, or the unit idea that was implemented is out of place a bit. Some maps are very hard to complete to me - I playing it on normal difficulty. It has uniqueness for sure, but I hope I can try the newer version of this campaign in the future. I'm hard with this campaign, but overall is fun, and has potential. I want also to be highlighted, that the "Legacy of The Damned" has no other rework/revamp, or I'm blind and I'm not found yet.

Hello! Thanks for showing interest in it (again)!
Fair review to be honest. And thank you for saying it has some uniqueness! That's the point.
And yeah, there's is only 1 other edit apart from mine of this campaign that I could find, which is the 2 Player edit.

I hope that you will enjoy The Scourge of Lordaeron edit a lot more that I will release in the near future. I am taking my time with it to ensure good quality.
I think it will be a unique edit of the campaign and so far I'm really satisfied with how it's turning out. I'm not making it way too custom since I want the players who play it to know they are playing Warcraft 3.
