The Wars of Warcraft: Opinions and Ideas

I would like to say that this is the Wars of Warcraft Saga Map Idea Thread. This is where I tell you what I plan to make and you tell me what you want to see or not see. This is also the place where you say things like "I would like to see this warcraft war/conflict covered." I'll research it and get back to you if it would work, and I'd add it to the list

Here is the list of maps I am definately going to do:
(6) The First War - Takes place in Elwynn Forest, Swamp of Sorrows, Black Morass. Obviously during the first war
Human Forces: Stormwind Humans, Northshire Clerics
Orcish Forces: Orcish Clans, Shadow Council

(6) Outland Conflicts - Takes place on Outland, with the Draenei / Blood Elven conflict. After the defection of the scryers.
Forces of Shattrath: Sha'tar, Aldor, Scryers

<Your conflict here>

To be approved conflict zone:
Twisting Nether (Nuclear Arbitor)
Dwarven Expedition (rulerofiron99)
Theramore / Durotar Conflict (rulerofiron99)
Draenish Holocaus (rulerofiron99)
Tauren and Centaur Conflict (rulerofiron99)

Tell me, what do you want these conquest based maps to have?
Your opinion matters! I want to know what you think. Be positive and serious please.

And yes, somehow this project is creeppiinng across the boards. Its not intentional i swear :P

kadghar with his blizzard and fire ball. and holy dong. be cool if u did them in the twisting nether, where ever the hell the went.

The troll wars, where the trolls allmost annihalated the humans but then the elves came along to help them, and taught them how to use magic. Could be a cool times thing where you have to hold off as long as you can. :)

I like it! I'll figure out the races and write them down.
Im not too sure about the twisting nether but I can try to think of something.

1. Dwarven Expedition to Northrend vs. Scourge (not just the part in the campaign, but also a bit before it, must include the nerubian cities)

2. Draenor - Orcs wipe out Draenei. Completely.

3. The legion's first invasion vs. the ancients.

4. tauren vs. centaurs in the barrens.

5. theramore isle / durotar - orcs vs. humans

Added, oh, and the elves didn't come to help. They attacked the humans, but created a mutual alliance when the outcome turned bleak to beat the trolls.


added. Its the War of the Ancients.

when did the dwarfs ally with the elves?

When dwarves entered the alliance. Sometime around the second war I'd presume.

Hmm... I think you've got about everything here. At least that I can think of. I geuss if you're allowing skirmishes, and not really wars too, then You can do other racial conflicts, like say...
Dwarves vs. Frost Trolls
Dwarves vs. Each other (But I think there's already a project about the three hammers :P)

Oh, you could do the Gurubashi Trolls versus Each other. You know, when they first tried to summon hakkar and failed and they all split up and that stuff... At'al Ai trolls..... yeah. That thing.

And it's kind of hard to find reference for it but way back before the Sundering the Trolls defeated the Aqir (Split into Nerubian and Silithid). Reference:
http://www.wowwiki.com/Aqir

So yeah. But for wars with any real reference, you've pretty much got it covered.

Oh, and there's also the time when Alextrasza was helped to escape from the Demon Soul and freed her brood with Ronin's (And Everyone else's, whatever) help. That's kinda cool.

So yeah :P

You could also try what I'm doing for my map, and figure out what Arthas is up to now that he and the Lich King are one. The Scourge is still really powerful these days.

I'll think about, I'm trying to stay to things that have definate lore and people who participated. Though I'll keep it in mind.

Oh no, I was just trying to help out, I don't have a particular interest in seeing that one done.

wait till wrath of the lich king to get a butchered, mmo version of that.

then I can make a map about it :P

Yeah. As much as I understand needing to adapt a game to make it good for mmo, there is no need to have something as ridiculous as the top characters in the game killable by PCs. First Illidan, now Arthas I bet. Completely ridiculous. And for the record, Wrath of the Lich King takes place in Northrend, so they probably have him just sitting up there holed up in his citadel. Arthas is way more ambitious than that, I like the way I have him portrayed much better. And I would never let a player control a main character like Arthas or Sylvanas or Illidan.
