Tyrande did accompany with Malfurion side by side in Sentinel storyline of earlier version(v1.3).There were also some familiar lore characters such as Garrod Shadowsong who could satisfy you.However,Turnro has temporarily deleted Chapter 3 to 6 of that storyline,avoiding too much file size perhaps.I have no idea if there is an old version link of Malfurion's Quest.Maybe someone still keeps it.
I have a few ideas about Alexstrasza and Nozdormu fights and story. Sorry if I'm a bother. If ideas are welcome I'll be happy to post some. If not than just ignore this comment, sorry.So Alexstrasza and Nozdormu boss fights were cut out? Too bad. Time is always limited
Maybe you could slightly change the cinematic when you loose the obelisk, so it becomes a "You Loose" cinematic?
Imo it should definitely be more dramatic. They are the main characters, and the love triangle is one of the main plots in the story. Maybe also add more dialog in Tyrande's fight how she loves him and can't kill him for that reason. Making a point that her love killed her. But that's just me and it's your choice.

One more question. Have you considered renaming Lady Darkscale to Lady Vashj(she survived the Dreadlords)? I mean it's hard to imagine Illidan and the Naga without her.
Also can you give me a small spoiler. Is it planed in the Sentinel story, for Tyrande to have a larger role, possibly be the main protagonist alongside Malfurion? Also I know we won't be fighting allied bosses in the Sentinel story(e.g Tyrande, Cenarius, Velinde), but also not the Sentinel enemy Highborne bosses(e.g Shahraz, Kazzak, Smolderas, Azshara)?
Nope. Only in a WoW method with heroes. Because building a base triggers the attack waves of the Legion, the Naga and the Night Elves. That way you have to turn your attention on defending the base instead of focusing on attacking the Medivh's forces. It's so much easier to just rush with the heroes (at least for me it was) and keeping them alive.
The Demons, Naga and Night Elves attack you automatically now, in the newest version. Even if you don't build anything.:'D
Oh... I haven't updated the 1.4 version of the game, so I didn't know about that
my mistake 
No the main quest is to bring Malfurion to the world tree. But you have to destroy that base, simply to pass. If all your units are killed, and all buildings destroyed, you get one worker at the starting location, but you don't have "a lot of hope to succeed", the enemy will destroy you before you revive Malfurion. Theoretically you can get a new worker untill you are out of rescources. But I didn't try that. I restart the mission when my base is destroyed.Oh... I haven't updated the 1.4 version of the game, so I didn't know about that
So do you get a "Mission Fail" if all your units are killed before building the base at the site where you destroy the first naga base? And is destroying the very first naga base in front of the starting point of the game the main priority of the game now?
Who says that you have to revive Malfurion and build a base? Or even who says you have to destroy the first naga base? You don't have to. You can just move your heroes away from the base. Just rush them away. They will take some damage, yes, but they are way more powerful enough to survive since they'd be 12th or 13th level (I don't remember correctly) by chapter 9.
Thanks! I'll try it. Though when you have to destroy a base (two bases actually) with two lvl 15 heroes, ~5 dragons with lvl 3 attack and armor upgrades, ~10 drakes with lvl 3 attack and armor upgrades plus an army, with three heroes, and Demons/Naga attack you while you retreat with large armies and possibly a lvl 15 hero. The chances are pretty high you'll lose your heroes one by one. And Demons/Night Elves will eventually destroy the small Naga base.
Exactly my point! My guess is Naga and the Demons won't be triggered to attack your units until after you build your base at the site where the first Naga base is located. In 1.4 version that I currently have it's only Medivh's forces and the Warden's Night Elves that were attacking my units before I build a base. So tell me if that method worked out for you!
Didn't work lol. Shalis's base seem to be triggered to attack after you destroy that small naga base. The Demons and the Naga cutscene seems to be triggered after you build the main building or when you enter Shalis's base. The Demons actually helped me, by attacking the other side of Shalis's base. The Naga went streight through their base and slaughtered my units. After I destroyed Shalis's base, the Aspects cutscene triggered, which seem to trigger the attacks by PotM/KotG/Dragons. I had a hard time to reach their base cause the Dragons and Demons kept attacking my heroes more than once. The Naga kept coming back to attack one extra worker, kinda hilarious. Tried to run away with my Heroes but the Keeper used Entangling Roots and trapped Magtheridon. I'll try it again later.
Hahaha I knew it's not as easy as in the earlier (first) patch that I have, since Turnro updated it to make it harder
Thanks! I know that I'm boring, but Turnro and you have made such an interesting story, so what can I do

So the artifact gathering in "Pillars of Power" and the ritual in chapter 8 was simply to get Medivh to the Emerald Dream. Couldn't Cenarius just enter the Dream and save his adopted mother, spearing everyone the time and trouble?
Also this is just imo, but the artifact could use a much more fitting name like "Hearth of the Land"/"Essence of Nature"/"Essence of the Dream". Would imo sound a lot cooler than "Ysera's Hearth".
You can ask @Turnro or @FallenStar to send you the file of the old Malfurion's quest v1.3, as I'm sure they have it since they are working on the sentinel storyline lol.
Now that you mention, Rowan the Wise and Jeopardy for the Horde should be instaload on Reforged, right? Since they're using classic models besides the Altars and the dwarf unit.
We don't know, yet, how will custom stuff work in Reforged, but they definitely won't have that problem.
Go ahead dude, essentially this chapter has nothing to do with the Sentinel campaign, as they're very different. Besides, it's one of the best campaigns ever made, so don't wait up needlessly.
Why even imagine that?
You know, a couple of years is a very long period, and a lot of stuff can happen irl or otherwise. Besides that we still don't know if the Campaign will work in Reforged or what will be the state of Classic (will it be 100% dead when Reforged comes out) in a couple of years. Of course the developers of this masterpiece Campaign have my full moral support to continue with this epic Campaign, but let's be realistic, our moral support doesn't mean much(if anything) in the long run.
I have 4 Warcraft III versions installed.
As with the things I see, modeling in Reforged will probably be quite problematic, cause the models are really high res.(*cough*even higher than WoW*cough*), even recoloring the High Elves to Highborne will probably not be an easy task.
Yeah but not in such conditions. If that had been Illidan instead of Furion, then mostly sure that it would have worked much much better. They decided to use Furion for the Highborne storyline and to do that properly, it wasn't as easy as they made it look, that's why for me Furion's story in this campaign is unsatisfying. However, I liked mostly everything about the rest.
No, I actually like it this way a lot better. The Highborne should be led by a sorcerer, and Illidan is not a sorcerer. Plus Illidan would never ally himself with Demons. Also it's really an awesome idea that the main character becomes a bad guy, power destroying him and stuff. The only thing story problem, if you ask me, is that Malfurion's and Tyrande's reunion and battle should have been more dramatic. And maybe storywise Tyrande would've been a better final boss, but this doesn't matter really, cause it's awesome anyway.
But Furion is!? Lol.
Not in original lore, I presume?
I guess that's ultimately taste. But in this case, considering original lore, it wasn't adequately developed.
You mean like with Arthas? Basically, it's the same, Furion became emotionless.
Not really. That would've mean cutting down lots of content that came after Furion's encounter with Tyrande.
No, Furion was never a sorcerer. He was a teenager, when he, Tyrande and Illiden met Cenarius. He found his calling in the teachings of Cenarius very fast and became a druid. Tyrande soon found her calling as a priestess. Illidan tried Cenarius teachings, but failed. Then he became a sorcerer, and sucked and failed again. Then as a warrior/rogue in the army, in which he was quite good. When he saw Furion and Tyrande smootching for the first time, he left the resistance and came to Azshara. Then he realised that he can defeat the demons only if he uses their power, thus finally becoming a Demon Hunter.
This universe uses WoW lore untill Warcraft 3 time(apart from Legion organization), so, yes in the original, and here as well.
Here we can only agree to disagree.
No, because Arthas and Jaina were teenagers/in early twenties, so their love was kinda normal, starting as a highschool crush and then developing into something more. Furion's and Tyrande's is the greatest in the world, the one that lasted for 10000 years, and that was ultimately the cause of saving the world in a way. They wouldn't win so many battle if they weren't fighting for one another. The last chapter is also about how he loved her all the way, but chose magic and power over her, and why he got nightmares cause of it. FallenStar explained many things, that it would of saved him has her reunited with her a bit earlier.
I gave you the original RoC manual source. If you want to put the WotA book series on top, that's your problem. They're bad material anyway. Time travel? Orcs 10k years ago in Kalimdor? It's laughable. External material twists the Warcraft lore so ugly that retcons are backed up by other retcons.
Demon Hunters are sorcerers, lol, even priestess of the moon are but they tip the (order) arcane energies not bask in them. Illidan became a demon hunter because the elf fought against demons fire with fire not because demon hunter means Illidan is not a sorcerer.
Still not buying it. Furion fights Illidan in one chapter and the elf is obviously demonically corrupted. Saying Illidan won't work with the demons is a fallacy. Even in TfT Kil'jaeden says:
Only on the first part of the sentence, yes.
It's not like Tyrande was dead or anything. So, the fact that Furion chose magiks over the priestess pretty much shows that it wouldn't have ended any other way. Arthas was bad by nature while Furion was righteous, not self-centered. That's one of the reasons why Arthas fell so easily to Frostmourne's corruption.
Now here's an idea for a campaign. Epic. In fact, Turno needs to put this in the Sentinel.
Yeah, imagine Evil Furion vs Good Furion. It's gonna be really good.
I was being sarcastic.
Actually I would bet that the final boss fight in the Sentinel verseion(if it happens :/) will be Sentinel Furion, Tyrande and Illidan(all three playable) vs Kil'Jaeden.
Possibly. I was just thinking of a way to connect the stories so they won't be each on their own.
Now that would've been an epic final battle. But don't forget about Azshara, the dragon aspects and other characters that could appear and fit the story in an interesting way.
