That was, by far the WORST map I've ever played:
-I selected blue as the only other computer player, and yellow and purple end up playing also.
- I BEGAN next to purple so we had to fight for the gold mine
- Blue BEGAN next to yellow so they had to fight for the gold mine
- No computer players actually build anything... just collected - so no challenege
- My first hero cost me gold, lumber as well as the normal 5 food -_-
- 2 Heroes didnt have hero glow, so some players might not distinguish them.
- Dragonhawks and Dragonhawk riders were what seemed EXACTLY the samething except one was 80 gold more and blue...
- Ensnare ability available - yet none of your units actually use it.
- Lumbermill model pointless (He used the Brown and yellow arcane box in human campaign units).
- The barracks had a one melee and one ranged type of unit but no unit to match the knight, huntress, nerubian...

There was only one unique idea I actually liked:
- You can buy an engineer who can build siege equipment in the battle field ->
the dowside to that however is that no other races have a balanced version of that.

Overall: 0.5/10
Titled: Biggest waist of time EVER and Complete and Utter FAIL at best...

Review
[+/-]You actually managed to change the Human to display Blood Elf, however, you forgot to change the idle worker icon.
[-]A Blizzard terrain. The worst is that it is a Reign of Chaos terrain, so you don't even have Taverns.
[-]Upgrades' button positions were not correctly set. Additionally, shouldn't Archers have an upgrade for them? They certainly don't use swords.
[-]The techtree does not seem to have any logic. What is the Lumbermill for if the Workers use the wisp-gathering system?
Also, Mana Shield on a hero that is supposed to heal allies and disable enemy units? :\
[-]No work on the descriptions, both on abilities and upgrades.
[-]No AI for the new race.
[-]Awful object editor work. The models chosen, the basic units, the heroes' abilities, just about everything was just rushed into the game.

The map is not worth having, I'm sorry.
My rating is 1/5 (Unacceptable). At this point of Warcraft III, maps with such quality are no longer permitted.

If you have questions or complains, head for the Map Resource Moderation.
