[Campaign] Warcraft 3 Altershift

I will when it's ready.
Very well. I should wait then. I have to think about techtree of Gromilla's Shadowsong Kaldorei as well as Shadowsong Nightborne.

In Altershift campaigns, Thrall's Night Elf Sentinels' player color is red, Jaina's Orc Expedition player color is blue, Tyrande & Malfurion's Undead Scourge player color is teal.

What about the techtree of Warcraft 3 Altershift - The Holy Throne (in this case, Humans replace Undead, so The Holy Throne replace The Frozen Throne):

  • Maiev's Ebon Hold
  • Illidan's Frost Trolls
  • Malfurion's Scourge (added some units from Maiev's Ebon Hold)
  • Kael's Bloodspear Trolls
  • Garithos' New Horde (in this case, Goblins joined Garithos' Forces alongside Orcs and Tauren)
  • Sylvanas' Humans (added some Blood Elves because of Varimathras joining her)
  • Blood Elven Insurgents, Blood Elven Loyalists (Of course, led by Detheroc and Balnazzar)
  • Arthas' Alliance (now having Humans and Dwarves led by Anub'arak the Mighty, as the Dwarven Runecasters replaces Pyromancers because it belongs to Sylvanas)

I've been working a bit on Altershift, mostly getting creeps down. I might as well share some of the newer ones here.

Blank

Gnolls

Mummeks

Vampyre Bats

Saurok

Exiled Trolls

No Spam here.
I made some custom gnoll units based on the centaur. Both because I want them to be on par with centaur while still feeling like gnolls and because the Centaur Khan is a different beast entirely compared to the Gnoll Overseer.

Mummeks are large, mummy-like figures who take the place of the Wildkin. They possess necromanic powers gifted to them by the same god the Scourge worship Preemos.
WC3ScrnShot_041126_215444_000.png
The Vampire Bats live across Maldramore and serve as the replacements for harpies. Fair warning, all vampyre bats possess a lifesteal ability.
WC3ScrnShot_041126_215806_000.png
The Saurok have been yanked from Pandaria and now reside in the caves as the replacement for Kobolds. They are different from kobolds, such as trading bash for cleaving strike and command aura for devotion aura.
WC3ScrnShot_041126_220126_000.png
So, gameplay-wise, these guys take the place of Dark Trolls. Lore-wise, they are reminents of the trolls that weren't sent away with the Darkspear, but haven't sacrificed themselves to the death god Preemos. That's said, while the Darkspear practice voodoo magic and worship the god G'Hanir, the Exiled Trolls have taken a practice in necromancy as a method for survival.

How about the replacements for Satyrs a.k.a Corrupted Night Elves?

I think about the kaldorei Gul'dan of Silverwing Battalion and his kaldorei sisters, as Silverwing Batallion is counterpart of Stormreaver Clan

I still need to get around to those but I'm still leaning towards the idea of them being revenants, or revenant-like, and that their undead who've embraced the Titan's magic and seeks to use their arcane power for themselves.

In case of Archimonde being a Titan Paladin, what ia a race that replaces Draenei, Eredar, Lost Ones and Man'ari Eredar?
 
Kinda surprised at how simple the task was, though the execution is iffy. Anyways, here's all the Nightborne Units. I imagine enemy Nightborne will need more units, but it's just the drudges from Kaldorei Grunge, the Archers, the Watchers, and the Sorceress.

Other then that, I've also gotten the saytr equivalent down in the form of Arcane Revenants. These Revenants are undead who started to listen to the whispers of the titans and embraced their arcane powers, changing their bodies completely.

You should use Ujimasa Hojo's models instead for the Nightborne faction.

Drudge

Archer
176646-46bf05d3015fb3a9398de76f9db83dba.gif

Sorceress

Watcher
150234-34b52b6da72d1c002ff07791d4627533.gif

Then, edit Ujimasa Hojo's models and retexture it with Nightborne version.

Additional Information: Which that race will replace Corrupted Ancients, as well as Corrupted Treants, Spiders, Sludges and Mutated Murlocs?

I think about the techtree of Blood Elves (in case of Tichondrius' army)

Worker (High Elf, Optimized) by Ujimasa Hojo (Drudge)
High Elf Swordsman A by johnwar (Swordsman)
Archer (High Elf, Optimized) by Ujimasa Hojo (Archer)
Blood Knight by Ujimasa Hojo, retextured with Knight, High Elf Dragon Hawk and Captain meshes (Knight)
Priest (Blood Elf, Optimized) by Ujimasa Hojo (Priest)
Sorceress (Blood Elf, Optimized) by Ujimasa Hojo (Sorceress)
Spell Breaker (Optimized) by Ujimasa Hojo (Spellbreaker)
Generic Bolt Thrower by Gluma (Bolt Thrower)
Blood Elf Arcane Guardian by AndrewOverload519 (Arcane Golem)
Dragonhawk Rider (High Elf, Optimized) by Ujimasa Hojo (Dragonhawk Rider)

@DwarfBoy are you sure to show the Blood Elf techtree right now? I see Tichondrius will now command the Alliance soon.

Maybe Priestess of Death Tyrande Whisperbone awaken the Necrolord Malfurion Soulcage, and then lastly Necrolord Illidan Soulcage, which he took Skull of Gul'dan, and he becomes Lich.

I assume both Illidan and Malfurion were Necrolords


I see...

Night Elf replace Orc
NIGHTBORNE replace FEL ORC

I assume World of Warcraft Altershift will be like:

Horde & Sentinels

Horde: Orcs, Tauren, Undead Scourge, Goblins

Sentinels: Kaldorei, Uncrowned Humans, Furbolgs, Worgen

Altershift 6 (Scourge/Ebon Hold Campaign) - Terror of the Ice
Altershift 7 (Horde/Bloodspear Campaign) - Curse of the Bloodspear
Altershift 8 (Alliance/Uncrowned Campaign) - Legacy of the Righteous
