Hello, and welcome to my project which I've been working one for almost two weeks non-stop. It doesn't have a name yet, but that's only a matter of time 
This project is a TC (Total Conversion) of the 4 races into something different. It started out as a small project, with the initial idea being to convert the Undead into some sort of ghost cult - but that idea was dropped and I somehow returned to WarCraft III some time after that and got this drive to make my TC afterall... so, yeah.
The project is still in alpha stage (sorry
), but I do have information and screenshots for you, so here goes:
(Warning: kinda large pics ahead that can invade your screen O_O)
The Humans become the Holy Empire. Holy Empire of what, you ask? I wish I knew. They're the peeps I thought abut less. Important thing about them is that they have some sort of divine Emperor who imba and I swear that this is just a coincidence with Warhammer 40K. Besides, Warhammer got their idea from the myth of Chinese emperors, so yay for chain inspiration/coincidence.
Anyway, havn't done much for the Holy Empire, so kinda barren screenshot. Still, it shows some stuff.
The Orcs are replaced by the Doom March (this name might change). Doom March is simply, a demon race. No innovations there. I just went on an attachment frenzy.
Shove it, corpses, time for some that don't rot. Undead become the Black Legion, a faction of.... pious vampires. That's right, vampires that worship god-knows-what. I actually know what they worship, but it's kinda early to tell you.
Finally, the Night Elves exit for the Sylvan Alliance, a faction where food chain links seem to team up for the greater good. Seriously. 'Kay, it's not what it sounds like - it's actually fairies having nature fight for the greater good. This is the race I think is the most aesthetically appealing. And I also went berserk on the attachments on this one.
Phew, that was a lot of frivolous talk. Anyway, do tell me what you think, and if you're interested in helping, I need someone who's skilled at triggers (JASS, vJASS, MUI, CookieBaking, you name it) to help me with some annoyingly annoying stuff (I can't do complex coding >_>) and someone who can make portraits (therefore, 3D Stuff skills) for some doodads I'm using as buildings, and other stuff (that's for the polish).
To conclude, I'll post the credits when I release the beta. Hope I have you hooked
PS: I'm making this on the Northshire map, in case you're wondering.
EDIT: And I totally forgot to talk about heroes. /Le fail
So, yes, you can only have 1 hero. Currently, when the game starts, you get to pick a hero from a list of three, and once everyone has chosen, the game can start. That might change. Right now I have only 1 hero per race.
Heroes are much stronger than normal, since you'll be having just the one. They also level up to level 15 and have 6 skills instead of 4
