A story told throughout the eyes of brave heroes - Fighting to the bitter end for their homeland


In the broken lands of Lordaeron, long after the fires of the Third War have faded, the struggle for the soul of humanity is far from over. Amid the ruins of fallen kingdoms and the lingering shadow of the Scourge, new forces rise — driven by faith, vengeance, ambition, and prophecy. What begins as a mission of purification soon reveals deeper truths, as the line between righteousness and madness begins to dissolve.

Crimson Prophecies is a story-driven Warcraft III custom campaign series that explores the fragile balance between Order and Chaos. Step into a world where morality is not defined by simple good or evil, but by the choices you make along the way. Walk the path of unwavering Order, embrace the destructive freedom of Chaos, or forge a pragmatic middle ground where survival demands sacrifice and ideals must bend to reality.


Follow Thaelion Aldis and his companions through a narrative filled with political intrigue, religious fanaticism, hidden conspiracies, and ancient forces moving unseen behind mortal conflicts. Encounter familiar factions such as the Scarlet Crusade, Argent Dawn, and remnants of the Scourge, alongside new threats and forgotten powers waiting to reshape the destiny of the Plaguelands.


Experience classic RTS gameplay enhanced with custom systems, evolving characters, branching outcomes, and moral decisions that influence the state of the world itself. Every battle, alliance, and sacrifice shapes the unfolding prophecy — determining not only who survives, but what Lordaeron ultimately becomes. Explore iconic locations reimagined through a darker lens, uncover lost secrets buried beneath centuries of war, and face enemies who may be monsters… or reflections of your own beliefs. In a world where faith can become tyranny and chaos may bring clarity, the future is not written in light or shadow alone.

Preview of a big new system implementation in upcoming Act III

On top of Morality, Military Doctrines and choices from specific past events that were parts of Acts I and II, which will get refined from past gameplay feedback to be more balanced and with heavier impact that further distincts the two "paths", a full new currency system will be introduced in Act III.

Welcome Oathbound Sigils to the stage!

Oathbound Sigils will be a new form of rare currency which is obtained in four specific ways:

1. Selling rare item drops

2. Completing side quests in a specific way

3. Digging for treasures

4. Oathbound tasks - Each mission will have an Oathbound Task which will show up at the beginning of the mission. Oathbound Task will show a list of requirements/limitations/goals the player will need to complete during the mission to be rewarded Oathbound Sigils on the following level.


Usage of Oathbound Sigils:

There are three new custom buildings which exclusively use Oathbound Sigils as a currency for purchasing specific bonuses which stay permanent throughout the playthrough from the moment they are bought such as:

Global Abilites - Which include Global auras and Global active abilities

Weapon Cusomizations - Hero-specific weapons can be upgradeable via a hefty investment of Oathbound Sigils. Upgrades will include Stat Upgrades for weapons and Active and Passive weapon Ability upgrades.

Economic upgrades - Oathbound Sigils can also be used to increase the starting resources, tech level, number limit of elite units and others. In case your bad morality puts you on unfavourable terms, these will come in handy!


Trainable units will still be tied to Military Doctrines, albeit more embraced by their doctrine and unique than before, meaning Oathbound Sigils will get more of a place to shine in making the heroes you control pack a bigger punch, help you start off strong via economic boosts, creating an omnipotent global map presence via powerful abilites, or a mixture of all three. It is up to you to decide.
