Warcraft: The 2nd War
The once mighty army of Azeroth lay among the blackened charred remains of Stormwind Keep. Those that escaped fled across the great sea, bringing tales of the suffering they had faced at the hands of the Orcish Hordes. Eager to engage in battle once again, the Orcs constructed ships of war to bear them across the great sea. The Orcish warriors yearned for the sounds of battle to fill the air and looked to the far horizon for new blood to spill. Using the weapons forged by their new allies, the humans made haste to prepare for the onslaught. While cannons were being loaded, others armed themselves with Elven steel and nail. Now united in arms with new allies against the common foe, mankind stands at the shores of destiny and awaits the coming of ..

What is This?
This mod is my attempt to recreate Warcraft 2 in Warcraft 3. This means including:
gameplay
models
sounds (Music, unit sounds, attack sounds)
Features:
- Human and Orc full tech trees - (Death Knight/wizard not done yet)
Ogres to ogre mages; bloodlusted and ready to kick some human but
Knights with exorcism to remove the nuisance called Death Knights
- A working oil system for 8 players (yes, it works)
- Unit stats set close to WC2 (E.g. Footman: 60 hp, 400 sight range, etc.)
- Midi versions of the music from warcraft 2 (i.e. the music that played if your sound card was bad) adding to immersion.
- ..And more
What isn't done yet
I have yet to finish the mage and death knight, but i figured that i would make this post already to see how interesting people are in this.
Some units don't have good Wc2-ish models simply because there are none to be found for them at the moment.
I haven't made any maps so far - only set up the setting and gameplay - which leads us to the next section..

I will upload the current Test map within a few days (it may be today already) for people to try out.
Please support the project by pointing out bugs and features that could be closer to the original WC2.
If anyone is interesting in making maps for this project it is much appreciated: just remember to use rolling cliffs (non-blizzard cliffs) so the transports can always unload on any land. Also use the plateau height to set ground height just above the height when water can be seen through it - this is because WC2 didn't have height differences. Finally remember to use rock chunks and my (custom) trees only for obstacles.
