Rush path is there. Could make the way to the enemy either longer or with some peril for the workers. Fel Peons or any worker as neutral hostile units doesn't make sense damage-wise, unless the plan is to Charm or possess the worker and start building...

  1. Rush path is there. Could make the way to the enemy either longer or with some peril for the workers.
  2. Fel Peons or any worker as neutral hostile units doesn't make sense damage-wise, unless the plan is to Charm or possess the worker and start building Chaos Orc material.
  3. A lot of Chaos Attack Type creep camps which might be inconvenient in the long run.
  4. The Orc Warchief while looking nice had its stats only properly modified in the first Human mission of RoC while in the editor remained weak, HP 340 and damage 4-18.
  5. Two Boots of Quel'Thalas on the Marketplace camp is a bit overkill.
  6. The fountain might compensate for the chaos creeps but could become a focus point orienting the gameplay around it.

Nice concepts but have to be properly tested in the melee scene both for the balance aspect and fun factor.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION
  • 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.
