New Campaign NEED TEAM MEMBERS (Check Inside)

Ok, i was just thinking and thought that it would be pretty cool to make a campaign and seeing of the shortage of them, y not make one?

Now i really have not thought any of this out, but one thing i would like to do, is NOT base it off another game, unless the ideas you give are amazing and impossible to turn down.

Heres a list of what i need: (I can do unit editing and triggers)

3 or 4 Skinners
3 or 4 modelers (i most likely will need a new race, with mostly new units, and a few changes to the current races)
2 Triggerers
2 Unit Editors
2 or 3 Terrainers
2 or 3 Spell Editors
And around 5 people who really know how to put a campaign toghther and know the basic JASS language, because i have no knowledge what so ever, in programming, importing mods, linking the maps toghether, and things like that

I need people who know how to import skins and models without them deleting or whatever way you can do it, people who can put all the maps toghether, People who can put in the skins, spells, and models into the map so they can be used, and people who actually have time to work on it, At least an hour a day.

Most of all I need people who got some ideas. Anything would be aprreciated. Not just for units and things but for the storyline, including the prelude and what would happen inside the campaign. If you just gave me a basis idea I could probably come up with a good amount of story, I am pretty creative i think, i need some creative names for units, if its not based of a game.

I think thats about all i need, if i find this becomes popular and people wanna join the team then ill put up a website. I have like 5 hours a day to spare just to jack around, so i can spend alot of time working on it if some1 could teach me some new stuff as the tutorials on things are kind of scattered and hard to learn, also i am not even looking to be the leader of this project. The leader will be chosen by who can actually do most of the stuff, like an experience modder that knows how to do the stuff we need most.
Pm, Instant Message, or email me if you are interested

Also, i will write the script and the whole story outline, whatever you guys need me to do. Ill write the script for the game and the storyline and blah blah blah all that stuff that doesnt require any knowledge of programming or mpqs, and blps and extractors and stuff like that. Anything like that I will do myself, that is unless someone else really wants to do it.

First mate, before people can join they really need to know a story line for your Campaign.

i was looking for someone else to help but, since noone i guess actually read the message and read that i wanted ideas, i guess ill have to write it myself, so!

The map will be a turn-based battle system, if i can figure out how to do turns, i no how to do a encounter system, but not turns or magic or summons or anything (should be No problem to make with triggers), and since i like greek mythology, and i know alot about it, i decided to do it on that. Details below here.
Long ago, centuries back lived the thriving athenians living above everyone else, fearing none, except the gods themselves. All the other greek tribes envied the athenians except one rebel tribe called the spartans.

The spartans were a warlike tribe, and like the athenians the feared nothing. The spartans cared nothing about economy, just war and bloodlust.


One day the spartans became sick of all the other tribes basically worshipping the athenians. The spartans starting preparing for a war. They trained as many young boys as they could, starting at only age 11. Weeks later, the spartans were prepared and at midnight they started to attack the athenians. The athenians being peaceful and thinking noone would even dare to attack them, the athenians fell with ease and the spartans took over all of greece.

The spartans made an alliance with the now powerless athenians and called their city Troy. Troy became the biggest town in all the world. Never would a threat oppose that could take down the new alliance. Or so they thought.......

Living peacefully, but always ready the city of Troy lived in prosperity for the next 10 years. Until a new rumor awoke of a power, greater than that of the king of the gods Zeus, a power that lied in only evil, but could destroy whatever got in its path. The people believed the rumor and saw no risk in getting the weapon, called Buzan, even though it lied in the heart of evil in the middle of Crete, which was always the biggest threat to the downfall of Troy. Crete was the home of the most powerful being known to man beside the combined power of Troy, Agememnon. Agememnon was an evil being always wanting war, never peace. Agememnon was both a sorcerer and warrior, and could overpower any person in Troy.

The people believed that if they had this weapon they could finally defeat Agememnon. So they wanted to send people to try to retrieve the weapon, to further insure the peace. They decided to send 2 men and a woman to quest and find the weapon. They chose Achilles, Patroclos, and Helen. Thier strongest and most intelligent warriors they had.

Troy did not have a seaport, or any seamen (heh) that could accompany the heroes on their quest, so the 3 had to set out to the country of Mycenia, which was a very long way away.

Along the way to mycenia, the heroes encounter new people, who join their party and contribute their skills the heroes. Along with new equipment and enemies.

finally, when the heroes get to mycenia they set said to the island of Crete, to find Buzan. As they get there, they fight some of Agememnon warriors, and towns, blah blah blah, they fight him a few times but he always escapes, finally they find Buzan, and fight Agamemnon and destroy him. All that stuff, and so on and so on.

Ending is still being thought of.

Ok thats a big change to the actual story, but oh well. Along those lines would be the campaign, going through most of the life of the whole story.

There you go Tirias almost the whole storyline written alone which i did not want to do, but did it just for you and anyone else who was gonna say the same thing.

Still open to ideas, especially on the storyline. and still need some team members.

Most campaigns are lucky if they can get one moddeller and skinner. And what do you plan to do yourself?

Finally, some replies, but there is a new post, you should probably go read that one. Both of you i will probably need your help. But its no longer a campaign, just a big map, with lots of stuff.

I sent an email, to boshi, whoever said they can unit edit, im sorry but i really dont need that, If you reply again, ill tell you the idea and maybe what you can do, its a pretty good idea, i think it should do well, lots of flexibility, and its not a dominant game type, just many mixed toghther. Give me ur email and ill give you the idea, boshi just emial me back and ill give it to you, because i really need a terrain guy to do it, 1st because i suck, 2nd cause the map will be pretty good size.

So, email me guys and ill explain more. Keep the replys coming!

Just so you know, if it is a turn base system, spell editing shouldn't be required.

Actually, if its TBS, you can't use spell editing, the spells will have to be triggered...
