Beta Crusader Pic, PLOX

This is killing me. Even with "-world", "-wow", "-burning crusade", I'm still not finding any of those cool pics from Warcraft 3 (RoC/TFT) Beta/Alpha. Google is incredibly lame when it comes to that. :/

I've got a few from... Dioniissest (sp? sorry), but I'm looking specifically for the "Human Crusader", the "mega-knight" with the super-huge lance and everything. I need to show my team's modeller (for a competition) what I mean, and would like it based off of beta, if possible.

So does anyone have the pic? Or know where I can find it? (this applies to pretty much any early beta/alpha pics, really; but specifically the Crusader).

Crusader didn't make it out of alpha, as far as I can recall (I wasn't in the Reign of Chaos beta) so it's beastly hard to locate images of now.

Best I could do in my quick search was this video.

Quality is shit, but the Crusader appears at ~35 seconds.

They slid the pendulum back from RPG to RTS. Can't really say I can blame them, either.

Well i should have clarified myself, i meant the graphics. They look more darker and better in the beta pictures. And if you take the graphics now they look more like the sims. Also the taurens with iron balls looks badass.

Thanks very much BBDino, and especially AR. By the way, where in the world did you find those pics?

Because if you just "had" them on your hard drive or whatever, I definitely would like to hook myself up with the rest of them. I have a few, but I neglected to get them when I first found them. :/

My apologies... I must not have done a Search of the forums. Gah. (those never work well for me anyway...)

Well, thanks a lot (<--not sarcasm). For anyone interested, These Two Sites are the repositories of all those pictures, videos, gifs, and *drool* concept art.

Well the lightning (assuming your talking about the old "Call Storm" ability) is the same as the Monsoon lightning... Just made wider?

Also, there are some of those models/sfx/particles/etc scattered here and there... I know I have the old "obelisk-Headstones" that used to spawn around the Graveyard.

Yeah, the game looked more like a poorer Neverwinter Nights, and probably the rts elements were more of a hassle in their designs ratehr than something that enhaced gameplay. In the end most of those ideas seem to have migrated to WoW.

The older interfaces remind me a lot of Age of Empires 3.
