That's right, you've read all the info, now it's time to download the map. This is the first release of the map and it has undergone hours of testing to hunt out all the bugs and gameplay issues. However, heaven forbid you do find one, please return to the We Were Soldiers forums and report it so that it can be fixed for the next WWS version or patch.

This version of We Were Snipers was made for the 1.14 patch and requires The Frozen Throne expansion. I can't guarantee that it will work in different patch versions.

** EDIT: Old version no longer available. Newest Version Below **

Finally after weeks of saying that it was going to be released soon. Here it finally is, We Were Snipers v1.1. It has a fair number of bug fixes and a few new features. All version changes can be found in the readme.txt that comes with the download.

I apologize for releasing it so late, but life has really gotten the better of me this last week. Also, this version of We Were Snipers was released to work with Warcraft III The Frozen Throne version 1.15. I can't promise it'll work properly in other versions. Anyway, enough rabble.

Download Now (EDIT: This version is no longer available. Newest Version Below)

I still strongly recommend that new players read the readme.

Here we are, long into the WarcraftIII 1.16 patch, but only now am I getting to releasing an updated map version of We Were Snipers. "Why is this?", you ask? Well, because I've nit-picked through all the code, re-wrote several large portions of it, and changed several aspects of the game mechanics to create faster and improved gameplay. This release is more or less what We Were Snipers should have been when it was originally released.

There is a fairly long list of new features and bug fixes. Here I'll list all the new features and a few bug fixes (you can get the full list of bug/fixes in the readme).
  • New Map Preview
  • Fancy New Custom Loading Screen
  • Limited Time for Attacking Team
  • User-Selected Game Length
  • Alloted 'Buy Items' Time Before Each Round
  • 'Objective Facing' Ability at Command Tent
  • Much Improved Intro Cinematic
  • More...
As I said, there are other things, but listing everything would take... time. That's time you could spend downloading and playing We Were Snipers. Now remember, this is a beta of v1.2. The final release will be in 7-14 days (depends how much feedback I get). So make sure you check in to get the final release as well. I should also note that this version is made for Warcraft III patch 1.16 and may not work properly or at all with other patches.

**EDIT: This version is outdated. Get the new version below. **

Finally here, the much awaited We Were Snipers v1.3. Primarily a bug fix/balance version but I did make a some additions to the map aswell. Probably the best change made is the fact that this map is open source. You can open in up in the world editor and see how things were done. I recomend turning off Auto-Save though. Because saving the map will corrupt it making it un-playable (and you'll need to dl it again). Some of the changes made are:
  • Fixed the Wood Timer Bug
  • Gun Upgrades Cost 125 up from 115
  • Added More Cover Regions
  • Added a new Defensive Post for Americans
  • Open Source
Unfortunately I lost the readme.txt when I formatted my computer (not sure how but oh well). So there isn't any readme at the moment. Perhaps I'll make a new one later. So there it is. Download and enjoy.
