Warcraft: The Second War Reintrepreted - High Elves (Quel'Dorei)

[AMarkov]

I've marked it for mandatory review once I find some free time.

I really like how the tech tree image is designed—it serves as the face of the project.

Take a look at my project, WarCraft Legends (a SC2 co-op equivalent). If you're interested, we could collaborate—the high elf theme has a noble foundation, and it could be explored through the lens of a legendary character like Alleria Windrunner or Anasterian Sunstrider, or any other concept that interests you.

As a collaboration, I’d even consider working on a design document, as that would be extremely helpful as well! You already have a foundation for the high elves, and all that's needed is to anchor them around a legendary character, define a core mechanic, and adjust the army balance to highlight strong advantages and weaknesses.

A credits list in the map description with the names of the authors whose resources you've used is mandatory. That includes models, skins, icons, custom spells, systems. Also, sounds, music and everything outside this site.
This helps you with the models, skins and icons from Hiveworkshop: Resources in use by The Elven Crucible 2.0
You can also upload your map here to generate a list: Asset scanner
Feels like a lot of names/resources have to still be credited.

Awaiting update.

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 haven't working much in this one. I uploaded it and kept working in the next Faction. I really like your contributions as very helpful.

Sadly, it's mostly a Human/campaign High Elf reskin. There is little to no difference between the high and blood elf variants.
Custom stuff is also too thin.

Simple.

The tech tree was quite good, buut the high elf arch mage was much left to be desired, seems to me that the arcane brillience didn't actually work. all in all, it was decent.

Thank you. I migth remake the archmage to a Grand Magister. Mostly I'm stuck for not having a coherent model to start on.
Brilliance Aura is meta as far I know.

It's a really fun map with good tech-tree and models, thank you for the map!

For the latest update, I notice a bug where there are 5 Heroes already created when I start the map.
