THIS MAP NEEDS REFORGED GRAPHICS

The Purge of Dalaran


1621935491940.png


The Purge of Dalaran is a major event in the Alliance-Horde war that led to Dalaran being pledged to the Alliance after the Sunreavers and the Horde was purged from it.

This map is basically an asset flip of The Culling in Reforged campaign whereas the Humans are changed into the Silver Covenant, the Undead are changed into the Horde, the Infected Citizens are changed into the Sunreavers, and Mal'ganis is changed into Grand Magister Rommath.

Quests:
  • Destroy the Brown-roofed City Buildings to force the Sunreavers out
  • Kill 100 Sunreavers
  • Do not let Rommath free 100 Sunreavers
  • Do not let the Horde break Aethas Sunreaver free
As mentioned above, there will be certain elements added in the game. At your base, Jaina Proudmoore is guarding Aethas Sunreaver in his cell and the Horde will attempt to free him. Do not allow them to destroy the magic pen walls guarding him.

It is wise to slay the Sunreavers while they are still unarmed. Brown haired female Sunreavers will turn into Sorceresses, White haired male Sunreavers will turn into Blood Mages (can cast Flamestrike), and blonde haired male and female Sunreavers will turn into Priests and Archers, respectively.

There are also Sunreaver sympathizers within the Kirin Tor, Sha'tar, and the Argent Crusade, slay them as well for loot. Anyone siding with the Horde is to be treated as Horde as well.

This is my first map and so I expect the first release will not be so good, so any suggestions and/or criticism will be appreciated.

  • Dalarani banner props
  • Grand Magister Rommath
  • Aethas Sunreaver
