Bago's Quest Campaign Story, Heroes and Units

Hi again.
Sorry for making to threads at one time (;) ) but the thing is I need two :)

This one is to post info on my campaign "Bago's Quest". As you have noticed I've already posted some screenshots of the campaign but no story, hero info and stuff so here it is.

This thread is for the Story, info on the Heroes and I'll post some info on the new units for the orcish race.

On the world of Arath it is the year 610. Two decades have past since the last war between the orcs and the humans.

The first war began in 573 when two dominant races
of Arath started a conflict. Normally Arath was a world inhabited by both races. But that was soon to be
not much longer like that. The Nation of Andranoch after a very long time
of forgiving many brutal orcish actions, their King Patos
finally declared the first war in this age which was directed at the Orcs. The orcish nation of the Bloody Claw Clan led by
Thiran the Fierce has been waiting a long time for this moment and not wasting any time
were the first ones to attack the enemy. After destroying each and every human base that was on the south
to Raftaloth (the White Sea) the Orcs concentrated themselves on naval attacks.
Until the year 583 the Humans were bravely holding off the orcs not allowing them to win
even an inch more than what the orcs already posessed. Finally after a great pause the humans began an offensive.
For 5 years the border line between the two forces didn't move significantly
until in 588 the Human Paladin Timon convinced
the Formarge Dwarves to stand to battle on the side of Andranoch.
The Elves from Ectaria have joined shortly after thanks to the
good relations between the Elven Leader Aelvis and Andranoch's King.
The orcs were long before allied with many Troll tribes but they didn't stand
a chance against the Northern Arath aliance. The Gray Trolls led by Zul'jin and the Orc forces have been divided
and without further contact with the orcs - Zul'jin has given up and escaped with the remains of his tribe to Nokridge where they still live now, seperated from Andranoch.
Other Troll tribes have become a minority because of the constantly rising number of their deaths and
remained from that moment hidden in the forests of Ormreish.
The year 589 has brought a powerfull mage - Falconos - into battle for
Andranoch. After numerous losses the orcs were only controlling Ormreish (Southern terrains of the former Orcish Territory).
This sittuation has forced Thiran to do nothing else but give up.
But Falconos didn't agree with the orcs only applying defeat. He decided to make a plan
which he called the "Orc Extermination". The orcs tried to defend themselves with hiring
Ogre Merceneries from Ormreish which always had a close opinion coparing to Thiran's Clan, but that didn't help so most of the Bloody Claw Clan fled to Totemor (another world where the orcish race wasn't a minority)
through the Portal. The humans have won the portal and were controlling all of
the previously controlled by Orcs terrains of Ormreish.
Most of The Bloody Claw Clan have escaped but many have died in battle
while defending the portal including their Warchief.
Thiran's death wasn't a big tragedy though.
He was never respected by anyone. His title of Warchief was
gained only because of the great fear every orc had felt to him.


The only ones who remained on Arath were 3 leaders: Bago Deathfist (the right hand of Thiran the Fierce, he who
was the tactitian of the Bloody Claw), the Shaman Wulzir
and the Illusionist Romb. They alone attacked the human bases guarding the portal and
with their combined magics did the impossible - have won the portal back
and defended themselves until
activating the portal once again and escaping to Totemor. All 3 survived attacks from a whole
battalion of Andranoch knights. They were from that moment called the Iron-Skinned.
Andranoch has been cleansed from the Bloody Claw Clan but South Andranoch
was left in a neglected state how the orcs have left after their many ages of rule, so the time when a new, beautiful
part of Andranoch's Kingdom would rise to a satisfactory state hasn't yet come.
However the Humans still made miracles to what was probably the dirtiest part of Arath.
Back on Totemor the Bloody Claw Clan still had their terrains and power so there
wasn't much to argue about until the Bloody Claw decided to ally with the Burning Axe Clan.
After 10 years of no war the Bloody Claw has had a little land exchange with the Burning Axe giving them
a part of their terrain with the Totemor portal for a strategical place that could help them
have a head start in a war against the most hated by Bago Deathfist (the new warchief) clan of orcs - the Hammer's Might Clan.
"If not Arath then it is here that I will become supreme ruler!" - Deathfist decided.
The Hammer's Might and The Bloody Claw were the strongest Clans on Totemor.
Iru Hellhammer - the Warchief of the Hammer's Might didn't have anything against two
Clans being dominant on Totemor but not Bago Deathfist. He was planning a war with them
since the orcs were even still living on Arath (now these terrains are called South Andranoch). The year 600 - the attack against
the Hammer's Might begins. The Bloody Claw fresh with new warriors and ready for war
was quite a challenge for the Hammer's Might. Until 608 nothing new has happened.
A bloodthirsty war with neither side expected to win.
The Clans still waged until Iru thought of an idea to somehow attack the Bloody Claw from inside.
So the Hammer's Might Clan attacked from the sea with almost all their forces into the
territory of the Bloody Claw. That meant only one thing - if they would win the enormous battle that was to take place for sure -> the Bloody Claw Clan
would be mostly destroyed and Iru's Clan would win most of their terrain but if they would have lost
that would leave them in a bad sittuation since most of Iru's forces were attacking then there would be
almost none to defend the territory of the Hammer's Might Clan. The deciding fight has been held at Tagno.
Both Warchiefs think they are sure to win because each of them has a powerfull trump which the opposing Warchief doesn't know about.
Here's where the campaign begins...

OK so if you see that the
text
jumping in strange
moments to a
new line pisses you off it doesn't mean it's my fault :bgrun: cuz the story's a CnP from a Notepad ;)

I know that the story's similar to the one from the original Warcraft but I've created it last year in July so it was before I even got Warcraft and most important - I didn't know what capabilities I will have
BUT
I assure you the way things will be going is much different ;)

Expect info on heroes and units soon

EDIT: Grammar has been changed a bit.

Do what i did, post all this in your official thread you have here, your not allowed to have this much.

Yeah I know it makes Campaign/Team Discussion covered kinda in BQ threads but the problem is I kinda don't have THE official thread. There's one for: screenshots, beta tester gathering and one for heroes, units, story (this one).

Damnit... must... get... hosted! :ggani:

Anyways - is it illegal to have so many threads in here??

how do u pronounce Bago's name? is it like B-aa-go (with like an "AH" sound) or is it Bag-o (like a bag)?

if its Bag-o, then i have to tell u that that name kinda sounds like a hobbit name...it reminds me of Bilbo...:bgrun:

It's not Bag-o (like Bag-oh) it's like with the ah sound. The 'a' is pronounced like an 'ah'.
Kinda like 'Bah'-'goe'.

Martinez

ok i was just checking:D

I think it acctually sounds best with a polish accent - "Bah-goh". Let it be officially "Bah-goe" when talking english.

Martinez

PS But it's certainly NOT Bag-o ;)

positive relations with the Bloody Claw - the

Damn imagestation!!
The links stopped working :/
Anyways - I'll post new info on the spellcasters that are featured in my campaign soon.
Still I'm waiting for more beta results from my testers. So far I've only got 2 beta reports - so... BETA TESTERS! If you did send sth to me I didn't get it. Only reports I received are from Zap and Pure_Death1492 (one from each).
I'll post this reminder later in that other thread too cuz that's where the BQ beta testers will probably be looking.

Martinez

PS If the links won't work for too long I'll send the icons to somewhere else but right now I'm too lazy to do it :)
PPS BTW Sorry for the inactivity lately but I was on the edge of being kicked out of studies but luckily I came back victorious in the fight against my lazyness :D

Heh... I didn't post any info for so long that I almost forgot this thread acctually exists lol :)

_____________________________________

THE ILLUSIONISTS

Learned by the Farseer Romb, these are the ones controlling illusion magic in the Bloody Claw Clan. Thanks to one of the Iron-Skinned - the Bloody Claw's magic powers weren't only based on the magics controlled by shamans.

Hazy View
Makes a target enemy unit have a 50% chance to miss on an attack. Lasts 30 seconds (15 for heroes).

Hypnotize
Increases the movement speed and attack rate of nearby friendly air units.

BQ beta's taking damn long i guess :/
In the meantime here's some info on the Warlocks :o
_____________________________________

THE WARLOCKS

A very long time ago a big part of the orcish sorcerers were warlocks. For some unknown today reason the orcs have promised to no longer experiment with the told to be Demon powers. Now after ages - Bago Deathfist has broken that promise and brought Dark Magic practicing back to life along with it's controllers - the Warlocks.

Abilities
Ground Flame
Deals 100 damage to a target enemy land unit. Nearby enemy units lose 50 hit points.

__________________________

Next time... Ogre-Mages with new spells

_____________________________________

MAGES OF THE OGRE LEGION

Way back before the discovery of a new way to practice magics the powers controlled by the Ogre-Mages were similar to those of the Bloody Claw's Shamans. Now - mastering warlock-like powers, these are not only valuable because of their strength to the Orcish Warchief but also it is because of their knowledge on Dark Magics.

Abilities
Scout
Summons an eye of Darkness. Lasts 60 seconds.

Infernal Rock
Calls down an Infernal Rock dealing 75 damage in an area.

Ajuvenation
Drains 450 hit points in 20 seconds of a targeted enemy unit.

__________________________


If I'll notice that there's some more info I could post then I'll do it.

Oh... If you have any comments and/or suggestions please post freely.

And most of all if you're a beta tester -> tell me if you've found any bugs in the campaign.

I should add a big PLEASE to the last one :D cuz it's about time I start working on something new and release BQ finally ;)
