I came up with a new story idea last night and began work on a concept trailer this evening. I have it in replay format so that i can post it here. Just save the file to your replay folder and watch it in wc3. I havent gotten very far with the trailer, so far i just have the intro, scrolling text and music. Tell me if you like the idea. I will probably add some more action to complete the trailer later.:D

Ok here is the story concept for Fallen Angels:

Fifty Thousand years ago...
Before time first started its continuos flow...
Before Heaven and Earth...
The Great Darkness reigned...
It was pure evil and malice...
A being, living, but a great death...
It pursued us and sought to destroy us...
We hid, We found a refuge...
The Darkness followed...
We fought it for a millennia...
We fought it but a second...
I speak of We or maybe it was just I...
Or maybe it was another It...
Yet i know that i am a part of It, We, I...
Or maybe it is a part of Me...
Now it is Us...
It, We, I were or was split by the Darkness...
Our destruction in the final battle created time, heavens, worlds...
Yet was it our destruction?
Or just another hiding?
Maybe it was the destruction of the Darkness...
Now we take refuge in this creation...
For the Darkness cannot enter it...
The Darkness has no limits...
If it became limited it would be destroyed...
That may be Our victory...
All It can do is cast a pall over this world...
Disturbing its otherwise perfection...
Now the time has come...
Arise brethren!
Come forth Fallen Angels!
The Time has come!
Echo forth our cry!
The Time has come!

Hate to be an ***, but you know replays require the original map lol.

Get Nuladion or someone else to host the map for ya.

And about the storyline: That must be some of the most confusing stuff I have EVER read in my life lol.

Yes you could join Nuladion to host it and while you are there join the forms at Nuladion.tk and I dont think your story was that hard to understand, its just an entity that unsure of wether its singulare or a comunity, kinda like the Trinity only differnt:ggani: I like thinking :ggani:


By the way I have proofread your other story but have not had time to put it on the computer (yes, I print it and then proofread and then put the changes back on the computer, I must be some kind of weirdo)

Think about it more, you have only begun to scratch the surface of what i was saying.

hmmm, let me try:

It's about a (I think God-like) being, who was/is in what seems an eternal struggle against another being called Darkness.
Darkness almost defeated Light (just a name for hte first being ), and Light sought refuge in a 'cave'*. There, It fought against Darknes. And hten, in the final battle, something exploded, creating planets/time/the universe! Light thought It had won, that Darkness was lost forever in that explosion...
But to It's fear, Darkness came back and haunted the worlds/universe created in the explosion.
So Light hided in one of the Worlds, so that Darkness couldn't reach It... However, Darkness could still corrupt the world Light was on!
Therefor Light has called for the Fallen Angels to stop Darkness once and for all...

* doesn't have to be a real cave, more like a 'hole' in the nothingness that was before the explosion!


Tell me if I'm wrong 8)

EDIT: wow, after reading my own post I think it's confusing as hell :)

Ok, almost. The Darkness was winning and was never destroyed. Light was running it never won. Think of it like the Empire traking down the Rebels from hide out to hide out in Star Wars.

Here is a full breakdown of what i meant:

Ok here is the story concept for Fallen Angels:

Fifty Thousand years ago...
Before time first started its continuos flow...
Before Heaven and Earth... (before anything existed)
The Great Darkness reigned...
It was pure evil and malice...
A being, living, but a great death... (it was a living being but was evil)
It pursued us and sought to destroy us... (the Light was at war with the Dark)
We hid, We found a refuge... (The Light was losing and hid. remember there is no time or space, just a great emptyness)
The Darkness followed...
We fought it for a millennia...
We fought it but a second... (time did not exist)
I speak of We or maybe it was just I...
Or maybe it was another It...
Yet i know that i am a part of It, We, I...
Or maybe it is a part of Me... (this being was kind of godlike)
Now it is Us... (the Light was split, scattering its self through the creation,
becoming fully plural)
It, We, I were or was split by the Darkness...
Our destruction in the final battle created time, heavens, worlds...
Yet was it our destruction?
Or just another hiding? (they became one with the creation,
creating the forces of nature)
Maybe it was the destruction of the Darkness... (maybe this creation will result in
the end of the Darkness)
Now we take refuge in this creation...
For the Darkness cannot enter it...
The Darkness has no limits...
If it became limited it would be destroyed...
That may be Our victory... (maybe if the Darkness could enter
the creation, it would be destroyed, resulting in victory for the light)
All It can do is cast a pall over this world... (it influences people, portalling some
of its power into their actions and minds)
Disturbing its otherwise perfection... (this pall results in a unperfect world that
has war and death and suffering.)
Now the time has come...
Arise brethren!
Come forth Fallen Angels! (the Fallen Angels are the fragments of the
shattered Light)
The Time has come!
Echo forth our cry!
The Time has come! (the time has come when the Light will rise against the
Dark)
I hope that maybe makes it less confusing.

:D
