My Archimonde voices for the in-game Warcraft III unit are based only on his Warcraft 3 voice lines. Zenonoth already made a set based on his WoW lines, but many players expressed a preference for his more subdued Warcraft III style, a preference I share. I know there have been other attempts over the years but couldn't find them, but I could find references to their creators being disappointed with the results. I'm pleased with my results. Given the limited material there is to work with I had to be clever (many of his lines have distorted filtering & are thus unsuitable), I now think this is about as good as I can get it, after a few rounds of refinements. I might release another version if there is substantial interest and recommendations.

I'm no audio expert, this is an amateur job, but given the wide range of applications I wanted to release this for others to use, just credit me. I made this for my own personal enjoyment and a map I made, the only Warcraft III map and soundset I'll ever release. Though I did make a fun but amateur offshoot of Illidan's 11 Elementals (Godlike) many years ago.
My folders and file choices are based on the Gyrocopter because it has the most dialogue, that is what I based the folders and number of lines off. But you can use any of the sound files for any unit, typically unused heroes like Rokhan and Akama are good candidates. The grunt also works well, and creeps. I couldn't determine a way to create a new voice set, only replace lines for an existing one. If you don’t like a sound file, you can replace a unit with fewer total lines to leave out the ones you don’t like, or use lines you do like multiple times. The Spare folder contains lines that didn’t make the cut.
As best I can tell my resource is compliant with Hive’s rules. I wrote a simple readme and terms of use. As I understand it, I only need to make clear it’s not for profit and only authorized for use in Warcraft III or other Blizzard games. Let me know if I need more.
