Second War of Warcraft

I've been working on this and the first map's already done. This is a custom campaign about the Second War. It takes place sometime before WW3. Uther's in it so it can't be too old... How old's he anyways? But it's about how the Orcs come out and take over Azeroth, Khaz Modan(the Dwarven kingdom), and most of Lorderon.

The first campaign will be the Dwarven campaign. It will be mostly about retreating, sneak attacks, and junk, until you retreat back to Ironforge, the Dwarves stronghold and capitol. Your main hero will be Aggronor the Mighty, a Mountain King.

The second campaign will either be High Elf campaign or the Orc campaign. I forgot a lot of this for now... I think the High Elves place gets captured and they retreat back to the humans. The Orcs will be focusing on capturing Lorderon.

After the Orc campaign, the Human campaign will finish it off. You have to take control of the humans and drive back the Orcs, killing a lot, making some retreat, sending many to internment camps, and leaving many clans left... this I guess is about what time it goes to WW3(World War 3? The appocalypse?) in about i guess like 10-20 years.

Woah there, one step at a time.
Ambition is nice, but it's the main killer of campaigns these days is just the author knowing (stressed, nearly) that they have to make another 50 levels. Plan ahead if you would like, but do your work in several small chunks to see if you can actually produce it and maintain your enthusiasm. :)

I think you need to plan everything out, work out what you need (Several highly skilled modellers aren't exactly lying around waiting to be picked up :P) and check that you're willing to really attempt to make it. You've also not stated if you're wanting help with the campaign or just want feedback on your plan and story.

Uther is 64 in WC3, so work it out from there. The Second War was 20 years ago since the end of ROC, but I'm not sure how long it lasted.
He looked in his 20's to me, but I'm not certain that's how old he was.

Sorry I quoted that all. I have to see what all I have to answer.

Yes, I seperate the chunks by maps, or campaigns if I have enough people(which I'm not hoping on).

I don't really need skilled moddlers... I just asked for two skins... And I've already got someone working on it:D. It's one of those, "I scratch your back, you scratch mine," kind of thing.
