Maybe the first Tauren map I've seen, but still its a altered melee on blizzard terrain. Not particularly great but not bad either. 4/5 +rep. I saw another map pending with the same type of screenshots and same description template. hmmm, is that a friend of yours? Screenshots look better if taken in-game or cropped. We don't need to see WE. Still better than some who post no screenshots. I would like to see an action shot of the races in battle.

There only little change to the previous HU and OC race and the rest of it is just replace model and stuff, while the UD and NE were not touched, the terrain as well this map is a bit lacking but can be approved in some way.

In future updates, do your time in altering the UD and NE as well about Altered Melee the gameplay needs to be revamped in some way it will distort but beautify the original melee game.

EDIT: also please do add the DISBTN buttons you removed it turns the other other in a green format and its bad looking

Omg, this is just a replacement for the standard races. Not interesting for me :(
Some people like altered melee, some others not, my report will come soon.

..........EDIT...........

Here is my report:
It is amazing, but i found a bug, the ability of "Anti-magic Shell" doesn't need Sorceress Master Training.

Finally a map with the Tauren race! (Orcs always got Taurens, but in this map, Taurens are on their own. Taurens are my favorite. I rate this map 5/5!!! :goblin_yeah:

But, sometimes, it produces lag. You've gotta work on those tooltips and hotkeys of every race, those things are important. You also need to add new hero in Taurens. I recommend that the hero's primary attribute is Agility (as a replacement for Blademaster). I would suggest that there's a Mercenary Camp, Goblin Merchants are too many. Merchants got lame items.
Moreover, you're a map is impressive. The Bloodelves got more badass heroes. The Highborne is like the most powerful race in the map. Continue editing and updating this map, this map might become really excellent.

the map is updated and i forgot to say that there is a new hero in the Tavern.

Clawmaster is pretty badass! There's a weird plane appearing when you upgrade in Lumbermill in the Bloodelves race. Keep up the good work!

Why the size of the map is +20 mb? You must reduce the map size, try to use Warcraft 3 models as far as you can and remove the unused models and skins.
I will re-vote for 3/5, if you reduced it to 8 mb I will vote for 5/5.

EDIT:

You have reduced the file too much, but still, its more than 8 mb.
