What Makes Us Strong
The world of Azeroth paid a terrible price to end the apocalyptic march of the Legion's crusade—but even as the world's wounds are tended, it is the shattered trust between the Alliance and Horde that may prove hardest to mend.
The world of Azeroth paid a terrible price to end the apocalyptic march of the Legion's crusade—but even as the world's wounds are tended, it is the shattered trust between the Alliance and Horde that may prove hardest to mend.
The mad titan Sargeras was imprisoned, but not before he plunged his sword into the planet of Azeroth. Now the land itself is dying as a result and the resources start too deeply fast as the hostilities between the two factions start to increase. The war with the Burning Legion had weakened both factions' navies and the deterrence of swift reprisal that enforced the stalemate between the Horde and Alliance was no longer feasible. Whoever wins the coming war will likely win what is left of a dying world.
This campaign can ONLY be played in Reforged with HD graphics.
Sylvanas Windrunner: After the fall of the Lich King, Sylvanas came to the shocking realization that she, like Arthas before her, was damned to an eternity of darkness and torture in the afterlife. She formed a pact with the Val'kyr, allowing Sylvanas to regain her place in the realm of the living for as long as her Val'kyr survive. Sylvanas would initially claim that she considered her people a bulwark against the horrifying darkness that awaits her in the end. Mortally wounded during the battle for the Broken Shore, Warchief Vol'jin declared Sylvanas as his successor with his dying breath, leaving her to lead the Horde against the invading forces of the Burning Legion.
Varok Saurfang: The High Overlord is a renowned warrior of the Blackrock clan, and the younger brother of Broxigar. A famed veteran of the First, Second, and Third Wars, he served as Supreme Commander of the Might of Kalimdor during the war against the qiraji of Ahn'Qiraj. He later led the Horde against the Scourge in Northrend, where he lost his son Dranosh to the Lich King. After the departure of Thrall and the fall of Garrosh Hellscream, Saurfang has taken over the leadership of the orcs of Durotar.
Though the Warchief Sylvanas grudgingly respected Varok, she also sensed that out of all the Horde leaders, Varok is most likely the one to challenge or outright oppose her should she misstep too badly.
Anduin Wrynn: The new and young king of Stormwind and leader of the Alliance. When Anduin was just a boy, her mother die during a peasant uprising and his father, King Varian Wrynn, was kidnapped. In contrast to his decisive warrior father, Anduin is contemplative and diplomatic. Following Varian's death, Anduin assumed the throne of Stormwind. In the face of the Legion's onslaught, Anduin grew certain that lasting peace would not be achieved without bloodshed, and as he worked to save lives and fend off the demons' advance, Anduin was forced to reconcile his yearning for peace with the necessity for war.
Genn Greymane: After isolated his nation from the rest of the world, Greymane faced the dual threats of the Cataclysm. The worgen curse and the Forsaken invasion, culminating in the battle to retake Gilneas City, where he witnessed the death of his son and heir, Liam, at the hands of Sylvanas Windrunner. Humbled by his son's death and the devastation of his kingdom, Greymane accepted the aid of the Alliance. While Greymane himself became a close friend of Varian, his death during the assault on the Broken Shore, partly a consequence of the actions of Sylvanas, only intensified Greymane's burning hate for her. Now Greymane became an advisor to King Anduin Wrynn and assist him in leading the Alliance forces.
Nathanos Blightcaller: In life, Nathanos Marris was the only human "ranger lord", trained by the high elves of Quel'Thalas, and was close to their Ranger General, Sylvanas Windrunner. He died and became undead during the Third War, joining Sylvanas's rogue Forsaken shortly afterward. As Nathanos Blightcaller, he would stand in the Plaguelands, battling the Alliance and the Scourge. Recently his rotting body was restored with the help of Sylvanas's Val'kyr, allowing him to serve his liege with renewed strength. He now serves as the champion of the Banshee Queen and is her closest advisor.
Malfurion Stormrage: The first mortal druid. Through Malfurion's guidance, the night elves successfully halted the Burning Legion’s invasion numerous times. Now Malfurion and his wife Tyrande lead their people as one. Connected deeply to the ebbs and flows of life on Azeroth and bearing ages of responsibility and wisdom, the Archdruid is one of the mightiest and most venerated mortals of the world.
Campaign Info.
What Makes Us Strong is a retelling campaign of the event that happen during World of Warcraft´s seven expansion, Battle for Azeroth with some small but important changes. The campaign consists of 3 playable maps + 4 cinematics maps + Credits.
Features:
- Voice lines taken from World of Warcraft, Warcraft: Sylvanas (2022) audiobook, with a couple created with AI voice generator.
- The campaign has a strong narrative focus, from a perspective very different as the one presented in the WoW playable experience. With the inclusion of events from external novels that complement the story and fix plot holes.
- Experience the terrifying effects of a true full-scale war through the eyes of its makers and how they deal with their inner demons.
- The story was CHANGED in some parts to make it more understandable to the player.
- The Jailer don´t exist in this timeline. Sylvanas' motivations will be different.
The campaign presents a unique perspective that was never seen in-game on WoW. Or in any of the other custom campaign who take place during this same events.
The campaign goes too deep for many into WoW lore and with long cinematics. If you can't stand it, maybe it would be better to avoid this campaign.

1st mission
After getting to Zoram'gar outpost the night elf units that spawned are just standing in a line. Are these suppose to attack?
Also the bird deserved it just saying
2nd mission
Placeholders text
I liked the command post option for reinforcements and the difference units you got from it like the Troll spirit walker or the Tauren grunt
Nathanos third ability mentions "Black Arrows" is that suppose to be his first ability which is named "poison arrow"

Yeah, I was considering removing that cinematic because it's not relevant enough and the player must already be exhausted after watching the 2 intro maps. About voice lines. I can only add the lines that were recorded from WoW or the Warcraft: Sylvanas audiobook. In the case of Sylvanas I can put in a line or two made with AI, but I can´t make a whole conversation out of it. Her voice is too unique and will be noticed because it is difficult to replicate. The same goes for Saurfang to a lesser extent due to how deep his voice is.This amazing lore campaign with unique cinematics from Battle for Azeroth itself, i never seen anything like this before
Thanks for the feedback =)

Excellent work, especially for those canon enthusiasts. A delicate replicate of Battle for Azeroth scenes. Many novel dialogues even add a hint of literary atmosphere to the campaign. I quite enjoy it! 
Hope to see more lore campaign from you.

A nice WoW hardcore story+cinematic driven campaign that could use custom thought out gameplay mechanics and tech trees other than extensively using the core game stuff.

This was a really ambitious project towards the end.
Taking the Jailor out of the equation and making Sylvanas a cold pragmatic leader is what Blizzard should have done.
I really appreciated the the voices and the use of AI. My advise would be to use more of it for the parts where they don't have voices, but it work either with or without.
Gameplay wise is pretty fun and challenging at certain parts. Saurfang, Nathanos and Gen feel weak compared to the other heroes you get, but I guess that is intentional.
Using WoW cinematics is quite a nice touch. For some strange reason after they played my game crashed, might be just me.
The last mission was interesting. Quite impressive how you tried to make everything be as accurate as possible.
Some grammar mistakes here and there, but then again I'm one to talk? lol
It's quite a good campaign.

Excellent narrative-driven campaign. Plenty of gameplay too. It is kind of short though, but each individual chapter is pretty long. I hope we can see more of these campaigns that adapt WOW content because I don't plan on playing that.

Pretty cool map, enjoyed a lot, I would have preferred if some model wasn't a port for WoW but it's just my opinion. There are some bugs and I hope that he will actually continue the campaign.
