Warcraft: Apoclyspe

[Agrias]

I guess I could help with terrain if you'd like.

The idea sounds pretty good, can't really tell until you can play it .

 

[takakenji]

cool, thanks! i PM'd you with info

 

[takakenji]

i'm now working my way down from the top (i finished the main southern countries/states/whatever, silithus, un'goro crater, and tanaris)

so far i have no filled these zones but i have outlined them and already put down their geographical terrain (no doodads yet)

they are: winterspring, moonglade (only 100% finished zone), azshara, and part of durotar.

(in other words, BUMP)

I'm now working my way down from the top (

Will do

 

[Deolrin]

You realize that the real leader of the Frostmane trolls is Great Father Arctikus, not Griknir the Cold, right?

 

[Evillizard]

silence ye'old troll hugger!

 

[takakenji]

You realize that the real leader of the Frostmane trolls is Great Father Arctikus, not Griknir the Cold, right?

he's leader of the SURVIVING members, since a bunch of level 3's ganked artctikus.

 

[Deolrin]

But you say he comes from a long line of kings, etc...

 

[takakenji]

yeah, he's descended from the kings, but the line was broken long ago from the wars.

i'll add that if its too unclear

 

[RED BARON]

Hehe you ought to be 100% precise when dealing with hive users.. We're picky

 

[takakenji]

zones finished so far:

durotar, tanaris, un'goro crater, silithus/ahn'qiraj, moonglade

zones outlined (not yet filled but has boundaries outlined): winterspring, azshara, feathermoon isle/that random big island under it, mount hyjal.

terraining, modeler, and skinner spots are still available.

updates on the Warcraft: Apocalypse lore is coming soon.

Great an update - And seems to be progressing well.

 

[takakenji]

terrainer spot taken.

 

[RED BARON]

terrainer spot taken.

As I said some time ago, I can always consider helping you out with whatever you need.. assuming I got the time for it when you ask

Merry Christmas to you all!

 

[takakenji]

terrainer spot open again.

Seems that this project will be an awesome variant of Azeroth Wars. Please don't get offended by that. Pretty much just subscribing for now.

Maybe adding the "Titanic Watchers" as a faction would be good. I'll make the story if you're interested.

yeah i was definently intending to incorporate the titans in this, though i don't know how to make them balanced in the game.

if you have any ideas, please post them at http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/idea-factory-462/warcraft-apocalypse-need-ideas-143688/ !

 

[Deolrin]

You mean like how the titans are balanced in World of Warcraft? Just make it so each one costs a lot of food, and maybe a lot of money etc... And the hero is like really powerful, but not much more powerful than a unit. And perhaps make a limit as to how many titans you can create. Maybe also involve the Rune Iron Dwarves\Vrykul\etc in it, as weaker units and spellcasters.

 

[dead-man-walking]

No, i don't mean the Titans themselves. What did i mean is the "watchers", Like Algalon, Thorim, etc.
I will post the idea shortly.
The New Council of Tirisfal can be a major faction. Although it would be hard to create.

 

[takakenji]

the council of tirisfal will be part of "the alliance"

 

[dead-man-walking]

But it will contradict with Rehgar Earthfury and Hamuul Runetotem. Both are from, and loyal to Horde (Although Hamuul is also the member of Alliance-Aligned Cenarion Cricle).
However, to think of it, Horde and Alliance should be placed in on team (Because of the peace treaty).

 

[takakenji]

hm, you know dead-man, that horde + alliance on same team is smart. I actually might implement that, of course though they will be very spread out since it will be the largest team.

also, these are going to be the final playable factions, all others will be hostile.

i need help deciding how many players for each.

currently the zandalar union is one, horde two, alliance two, and they're all allied.

i have seven slots left and only two teams can have two players OR only one team can have three.

or, i can remove some teams for the horde and maybe give the sin'dorei and forsaken to the ironforge people and reduce alliance to four players.

thoughts?

 

[dead-man-walking]

Have you looked at your Need Ideas thread?

 

[takakenji]

yea, i saw your new team, but i'd have to remove one player first before i can add it.

or i'll have to remove a team.

 

[dead-man-walking]

Adding the Watchers as a faction would make the number of max. players 11. They are not allied to anyone at the start of the game.

You can fuse Silithid and Twilight Hammer's clan to one player. Also, you can change Katrudashi to Gundrakka or Kathdrakkon Empire.

The biggest problem on The Zandalari Union is the model choosing of Rastakhan. Although he seems to be a Jungle Troll, he could be a Zandalar Troll. I suggest using a Jungle Troll Model, though.

 

[takakenji]

king rastakhan is actually a zandalar troll, which is a tribe of dark trolls

also, i sorted out the teams

i'll add the watchers, and it balances out perfectly, the burning legion + scourge + watchers will be one team.

you can still post ideas for the ammount of players on each team!

 

[RED BARON]

i'll add the watchers, and it balances out perfectly, the burning legion + scourge + watchers will be one team!

Get ready to die everyone which is mortal..

 

[takakenji]

lol, i meant one each.

i accidently did the math wrong, so burning legion actually now has TWO.

also, right under the histories, i'm going to post all the heroes each will have and what type they are. I'll also put down their own history.ex:

Lich King: "Godlike"
History: you should know this.
Deathchill: Lich/Spellcaster
History: a small boy born on a farm who ate lichbloom and became super evil.

 

[RED BARON]

Lol, I meant one each.

Ah Thats better.. I would have been pounded to the ground with a team like that as one.

 

[takakenji]

kk, made a huge renovation.

there might be way to many heroes, please give ideas which heroes to change, remove, add, etc.

i'm going away for the weekend tomorrow, so i won't be back untill monday. i might do the rest on my laptop.

i'm off to sleep, post your ideas!

...actually a zandalar troll, which is a tribe of dark trolls

...zandalar troll, which is a tribe of dark trolls

...a tribe of dark trolls

dark trolls

Ahem? Since when are Zandalari Dark Trolls?

The Zandalar Tribe is a tribe of Zandalari trolls. Zandalar trolls are the first trolls from which all other trolls came from.

 

[dead-man-walking]

The Hero List for Titanic Watchers:

Main Heroes:
Freya: Ranged Intelligence Support Hero (Priest-Like), Have the highest Mana of all Watcher Hero (Not Counting Zaron)
Hodir: Melee Strength Tanker Hero (Tank), Have the highest health of all Watcher Hero (Excluding Zaron)
Thorim: Melee Strength Caster Hero (Battlemage-Type), Have the highest Damage per Hit of all Watcher Hero (Zaron not included)
Mimiron: Multirange Intelligence Caster Hero (Can Use Various Mechs), Have the greatest versatility of all heroes, Zaron included this time

20 Minutes to the game, if the Watchers DID NOT Ally with Any of Alliance or Horde:
Zaron: Melee Intelligence Godlike Hero. 'Nuff said.

im away on hive with cell phone mmight have a few mispells @ debode in wow they appear as daark trolls i never read their lore so ill read up on it now @ dead man tyfor suggestion

 

[Deolrin]

In WoW, there are no Dark Trolls. Dark Trolls are dark-purple, not pink-ish yellow.

 

[takakenji]

yeah, the zandalar are dark or purple atleast the ones ive seen cant remembr most of theem ill try to get screenshots when i get back home

 

[Deolrin]

You mean, a screenshot like this?

Zandalari Troll

 

[Evillizard]

Cinematic:

"I see now. Azeroth's time is done."

*Flashes of combat betwene the horde and alliance, and other factions*

"Our protectors have either failed us, or betrayed us"

*Flashes of protectors like Archavon dieing and Loken infront of Yogg-saron*

"Our prisons have been broken."

*Flashes of the Qiraji at the War of the Shifting sands*

"The minions of our own reign chaos over it."

*Flashes of the Dark Portal*

"Let."

*war flash*

"It"

*war flash*

"Burn."

*Pan through a massive battle betwene a variation of races*

Pretty much what I thought a cinematic should be like. I mean like a cinematic that would be in a seperate map that I would make if I get super bored.

 

[dead-man-walking]

Before the Off-Topic goes too far, debode is right. Zandalar Trolls ARE Zandalar Trolls, not Dark Trolls like what taka said. Since it was answered now, PLEASE STOP THE OFF-TOPIC. RIGHT. NOW.

 

[Evillizard]

Here it is. I'm gunna show it to you guys before I post it on the hive. Prolly because it sucks XD

 

[RED BARON]

Here it is. I am going to show it to you guys before I post it on the hive. Properly because it sucks XD

Its related to the tread right? As some spoke of off-topic..

 

[Evillizard]

It is. A few pages back I said I could make an intro cinematic that might get more people interested in the project.

This is all of my suggestion. I think i dn't need to suggest anymore on heroes.

 

[takakenji]

back from vacation

yeah, on Wowwiki it originally said they were related to dark trolls somehow because of their skin

it's been removed now and all the zandalar trolls now have one skin color, they use to have different shades.

also, i'm going to check out the cinematic now and add the suggestions

edit: just saw the cinematic, i have some suggestions
try changing the guy who speak's icon into Medivh so it's not just some blank hole.

when it says "Let it burn" the waiting time is too long for the actual scene

also, the scenes were you see things fighting is too short.

other than that, i liked it

 

[Evillizard]

Meh... I was bored... I made the cinematic for fun in 20 minutes.. happy quanza?

About Dead-man-walking's suggestions;

Cairne was killed by Garrosh for being accused as a traitor
To OUR lore, Lor'remar, Haludron, and Rommath died in the Catalysm. The blood elves have sailed to Kalimdor and reclaimed Dire Maul (forgot the name it was origonally) go back a few pages to see it
The Alliance heroes you are suggesting are cool but they are not huge characters to the lore. I think a problem is that we're having way to many heroes, I mean making up a character is good but having existing random characters is... bleh.
But I like the Anub'Thuzad idea, it would be like Nerzhul+Arthas. But when Nerzhul and Arthas merged, did they change their name to Ner'thas? Off of the top of my head, I would tihnk of "Nurub'izur" if not using one of the two names. I think it would be kinda cool to have a skinned pitlord to look kinda frosty like to use as a model. (Yes, I am saying I could try to make it )

 

[takakenji]

what evillizard said

though, it hasn't been confirmed garrosh actually killed cairne, though it looks like its happening, another reason why i'm going to quit WoW :/

 

[RED BARON]

Though, it hasn't been confirmed Garrosh actually killed Cairn, though it looks like its happening, another reason why I'm going to quit WoW :/

Good idea.

 

[Evillizard]

sad face. I mean, it's sad that Cairne MIGHT die, but what if like Garrosh kills cairne and then saurfang incapitates him lol.
