Hey, I've got this idea of creating a story - by terrain, I start, and you follow up, read and you will understand:


____________
| The Eremit |
--------------
Deep in the jungles(1), where almost nobody has walked, lives the troll eremit called Khar'Zhan, but one rainy morning, he wakes up in his hut (2)(3), this day would gonna change his life...

Here I want you to continue, this could be funny if you really go in for this.

I might try this. What are the numbers in your story for?

Anyone know how to make it so that buildings can be placed anywhere and like on unbuildable ground? I remember that option somewhere, but I don't remember where.

Create a new doodad with the model of the building u want to place and set the pathing to Mushroom or None . anyways that works for me.

I thought there was an option you could check or uncheck that allowed you to build on unbuildable terrain. And the problem with doodads is that you get the tower animations messed up and you don't have the player colors.

Can you also like freeze things in midanimation in the world editor or make it so that a unit plays the animation you want in the editor?

Not so far in the jungle a small Alliance settlement is already set up. A paladin and an archmage have landed and are being told of the news.

Paladin: Are there any reports?
Captain: The Scourge as you already know, Sir, have sent a small group here to act as reconnaissance. So far we have no idea where they may be. Our base is already set up and ready.
Archmage: Malak, this is getting dire. Lordaeron has fallen. If the Scourge come here when we are just rebuiling our once great civilization we will have serious problems.
Malak: I know Dalar. We repelled them once with the help of the Night Elves and Orcs, but how will we fair if they come again? Especially since the majority of the Blood Elves have gone, Naga are reported to attack cities, a great deal of people from Theramore have fallen from the orc attack against Admiral Proudmoore, and the Night Elves have retreated to Darnassus. They have also become mortal with the destruction of the World Tree on Mt. Hyjal.
Dalar: Hold. I sense something. *dust of appearance* There!
Malak: *holy light* Damn them. They have already begun scouting. What will happen to us now?
Dalar: I suggest we bring the fight to them.
Malak: But how can we? We don't even know where they are and I don't believe anyone lives anywhere near us.

Yeah, there is an option in it. Let's see... it was called...
In the Object Editor 'Pathing - Placement Requires: Buildable' or at least, usually it has buildable. If it has that, then turn it off. Then you're able to do it.

I think I'll join this too... later. I'm still eating, so it will take too long :)

Lol, nice idea. That's just like comics, just edit the pics in Photoshop and add the words that each character's saying. Should be cool enough, that's better than terrain galleries, too :)

Next morning the eremit is up early to collect some herbs, and goes right into the stressed human scouts.
-W-what are y-your busines-ss o-old s-tranger says the paladin with a exausted voice.
-My buissines you ask? Well, my business in none the less your business mon.
-Eh? Replies the confused paladin.
The trolls doesn't reply, but lets out a cold, scorring laugh; "Her her her..".
The Paladin get's more confused and yells out "Follow me men" as he leaves the area, the eremit stands watching him as the suns first rays sprout up from the horizon...

After an quarter of walking trought deep, rocky jungle it becomes more and more open, after saying "Just one more hilltop" couraging to his men with a small smile he realise that he was right - Down the hill, at the side of a small water pond stands some form a demon, and about a handfull of his servers.
-Looks like they're praying or something?, says the paladin at the same time he wipes the sweat of his face.
-Well, there's one thing it looks like -- trouble, says one of the knights (who has left their horses) with a smile.
The Paladin let's out a dry laugh, tries to smile but fails, he knows this won't be an easy task.

*crack*

The paladin turns around and he sees the troll eremit running away into the djungle shouting "The Village is in Danger".
The demon at the down of the hill turns around - they are spotted!
