1. You could simply add hero glow to heroes that don't have any: How to add Hero Glow without Modeling
2. Take note that units having hero models will have hero glow and their corpses remain on the battlefield.
3. Not sure how balanced it is though, maybe you could make the naga techtree more similar to the original factions. Would also recommend adding abilities to heroes that are not found on other heroes you can play with.
4. The pandaren building descriptions talk about orc troops.
5. Shadowlands Arthas techtree is just humans and the hero just has a different model, same spells with the exception of the Wisp' Detonate which is useless that it kills the hero on use.
6. Would be a good idea to choose the enemy race as well, even add a random option for both the enemy and the player.

So I guess a multiplayer further edit would make this more interesting.
I's a nice idea overall; hopefully it'll get more stuff as mentioned above.

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.

I saw a similar creation, the notes you change the characters in each chapter, and here the race. I didn't consider this project worthy of attention, and I don't recognize this one either

Noticed issue with Naga run:



Chapter 3:

- Siren has locked abilities, might as well disable them



Chapter 5 and 6:

- Villager turned into Zombies



Chapter 9:

- Muradin abilities are different than previous levels, causing loaded hero to lose ability points

- Gold Mines are owned by enemy players, except the one at North of player base

- Summoned units are not removed from first section area when first section end

I suggest focusing on specific races (preferably Pandaren due to the amount of custom sounds being utilized) instead like Warcraft III Alternate or Alterno

With the pepperoni, I agree without any doubt.

Interesting campaign idea, I feel like the best thing out of this entire project were the dialogues, the ones where the original one was talking with the new one you introduced, which made room for lots of funny interactions between the characters, and the gameplay is decent. Still, because the maps and the quests are identical to the original ones it can get boring really fast, I bet most players have played through these original campaigns multiple times, I think I played the og campaigns more than 50 times myself with different versions made by other people, so in terms of gameplay and replayability is not that great.

But I like the idea nonetheless, there is some potential for a lot of funny interactions and memes out of this if nothing else

Another round?

Hell, this campaign is cool too, like your "Exodus of the Horde Race Swap"-one. Playing as Pandaren transforms the bittersweet journey of Arthas Menethil into the story of an alcoholic, who tries to persuade anyone to drink "one more time" and cannot kiss Jaina cause of puke breath xD
Technically I don't see any problems with campaign gameplay, however Pandaren race, as you stated, feels unfinished - yet I managed to complete the campaign using Pandaren units at most.
You even included THAT dialog for Culling, well done!

Like and recommendation to anyone, who wants to see good-styled trash rephrasing of original Arthas story.

EDIT:
Finished this campaign and I can say that this campaign rocks even without using ElevenLabs.
