How does this work?
Enemies will swap accordingly and you will get to fight different enemies each time replaying a map with a different race. For now, only ladder melee units like Footman, Headhunter, or Necromancers will swap. Neutral units will mostly stay the same, minus a few occasion.

Cutscenes stay the same, although you may find the main playable heroes have different lines. And while Arthas is still known as Arthas, his friends might refer him in... let's just say, nickname :D

The map tries to swap as one-to-one as possible in terms of tier, so Footman will swap to Grunt or Archer, not Headhunter or Huntress. Units that do not have equivalent counterpart like Raider will still be swapped with a ladder melee unit (there's exceptions when an one-to-one swap creates an impossible balance issue). For the main four races, ROC ladder melee units will not swap with TFT units.

Setting
Maps are edited with the latest patch 1.36, so playing this campaign with older patches might not work.
You can play with classic(SD) or reforged(HD) graphic, but if you play in HD, there might be an early lag spike when it has to reload the assets. All the maps use the classic maps as base.


Update

1) Fixes with the Gold/Lumber/Food Cost for Storm and Earth from Pandaren races (Thanks with Mentilara's feedback)

It's an OK concept. Would be nicer with more stuff going on. A weird and pretty useless one is Detonate on the Wisp Arthas which isn't usable in maps/chapters without an altar. I see some things from here: Warcraft 3: The Scourge of Lordaeron Race...

I see some things from here: Warcraft 3: The Scourge of Lordaeron Race Swap Edition are still the same.

Approved.

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.

This is really good, race swap is very rounded up and I enjoyed a lot playing as different races, I wish there were more maps like these ones!

Finished it as Pandaren Arthas.
It was... A weird journey. Weird, funny, laughable journey.
I'll put it on your tab.

Sometimes, like on a key mission, it wasn't possible to complete due enemy having CHIMAERAS just on the starting base spot! This is unfair, honestly. Why not Hippogryph Riders, huh?
Balance depends on race you chosen of. I think it would be better to allow players to select not only their race but race of enemy too. What if I want to see mirrored battles? Or else?

Anyway, seeing another representation of the classic story, but with the ability to smash it into weirdness - lovable.
Like.

Like.
Many attuning I will need to do, it seems like. XD
As for mirror battle, that is definitely something I have on the list, and I am thinking of a way that to make it easy for player to choose, though it does need some time to properly add it.
Thanks for all the feedback, it will make the Race Swap better!
