Review of Northerend Strike v1.0
By Legal_Ease

This is another addition to the "strike" series of maps started by Monolith and continued by Twilight.
The map poses standard races against new custom races.
The AI is really good but you don't get to play as the new races which is always a bit of a bummer.

The Pros
-Nice addition to the collection!
-The first races look great and the AI is good.
-Trolls look the best!
-good choice of terrain.

Suggested Improvements
-The last races is just tinted blue. This could be made much better by importing more custom material.
-Custom UI would look good on this map.
-More imported material would improve this map overall.

Overall Rating
3.5/5, +rep for uploading. I think its time to put these maps together into a "map pack." Its a fun idea and I had fun playing.

this is not a proper review, just some feedback
i have two sugestions,
0) maybe you want to explore other options than altered melee, just to rest a little about that type of maps, i dont know, you are good with triggers maybe you can explore the rpg or hero arena types, or something very important... terrain, start to make your own terrains, it will be interesting to see your skills making maps.

or
if you want to continue in this line of altered melee, i sugest you to dig more deep in altered melee maps, thats mean to include to your maps, this stuff
1) new custom heroes (3 or 4 per race)
2) new custom spells for heroes and units
3)if you want, custom items too
4) custom tech tree, such as updates for units and buildings
5) Probably for this you should start to use imported material


5)because the thing of aracnids and nerubians or the frozen undead, i feel the presets units limits you, imported meterial such icons,skins,models will allow you to expand your posibilities.
for example you can find proper troll workers here in the hive, with the gold and wood carry model properly
6) Also, you can play the new races,thats really good, but they need balance work so the other races wont be unfair to the new ones (an example is in the number of heroes you can use in the new races, min you need 3 heroes per race)

7) overall, im agree with Legal about imported the use of imported material, consider it a push foward to improve,but take your time, no rush, you dont need to start now.

8) the good thing is you can play with old races and new ones, i like that and you copy paste preset units, thats i think is clever to avoid unbalance.

i think i didnt say it. but altered melee is not my favorite camp of knowledge i feel more secure with normal melee
good luck

Alright from top to bottom:
The idea for an rpg, that I have or had, I made an rpg map with 78 heros, 65 items, 143 Spells, 27 dungeons, 4 huge citys 2 medium size citys 1 small city (starter one), can duel and you can even play with cpu, but It is gone becasue I forgot to save it on my USB (Format my cpu) and now it is gone. But I will make an other one, well not as epic as this one that I am telling you right now, but still an example. Now for this map, in the future I will make new heros, new spells, new units, for sunken ruin's stirke v6.0 is done but I havent updated yet. I will update when this map gets aproved, and then I will upload Northrend's strike v2.0 and Sunken ruin's Strike v6.0.

terrain 4/5
creeps 5/5
trees etc 5/5
custom races 3/5
the problem with custom races is that it says if you dont build.... then you will be revealed to your opponents and the nerubians didnt had alot of buildings i think its with other custom races too! you should really give them more buildings
overall rating 4/5

Actually I don't found any bugs or annoying in the game so it is wp ( well played to me ^^. ) but except one.. After 6 minutes or 8 it shows a message in the screen

This is the message display to me:

"Revealing Player 4 ( Computer Normal )"
"Revealing Player 5 ( Computer Insane )"
"Revealing Player 6 ( Computer Insane )"

The terrains are looks cool!! but I'm suggesting to add more doodads in the terrains!
In the gameplay the I don't find some AI bugs except in the message so that's all I can say ^^.

Nice Map!! 4/5
