Hi! grogglan and i (again) are maybe goin to start a new campaign/MOD (i dunno for the moment) but we want to se how many that are interested of it first before we start on it, cuz we don't want to start, and then it dies cuz of lack of peeps... ok, what's it about:
it will be a mod or campaign when the warcraft world has reached the ages of our 1700! not the real history, the 1700 but in the warcraft world! i mean, orcs, humans, dwarves, all kind of elves, undead standing in uniforms in a long line just standing there, aiming and fireing at the enemy until' they are ordered to melee attack... understand? good! ok, how many think this sounds good? if you think this totally suck, then we won't start on it to prevent un-neccesary work (dunno if i spelled that right) ;)

Sort of... i found this pic on google.. i searched on "the patriot" witch is a movie based on the birth of usa... (in the 1700) but imagine orcs for example standing there on the pic instead of english humans ;)

EDIT: I made a fast skin test! this is a lil tasty orc line infantry :> (of course we need modelers in the mod, but i wanted to see how it would look!)

looks like it can be good. How will the battle system work? Are you looking at a maybe realistic type of battle system? Where you would have captains and general, and units would move in groups only. Shogun anyone?

thx for commenting! i think shogun/medieval total war like would be cool, and look good (but hehe, it won't be 1000 units on the bettlefield...) somekind of realistic would be nice... if the general die, you loose/loose points or something... btw, i've tested the orc line infantry skin with rifleman's anims, (but we won't use those) and it looked cool... i just need a rifle to add and test it with...

thx! but first, we have to give all guys that wanna join a lil test :> show us a pic! and don't think we allready HAVE started on this, it isn't really clear that we're gonna start this at all! we need to know what people think of it, then, when a couple of guys have joined, THEN we will start on it ;)

oh, and btw, we need a good name for it... PLZ HELP, I CANT FIGURE OUT A GOOD ONE!!

Name: Times of Conflict

I've already tried to get this type of realism. I made several triggers and terrain, so maybe I can help out with the concept.

Ok mate, I'll help you. I'm best at terraining but can do advanced triggers and maybe some JASS as I program in C/C++. My AIM is xasqmdx and my msn is [email protected] (not for emails).

hey, man I not being harsh with u, I think it´s cool, to have orcs, human , etc... with a rifle, so do what you want.but I have a few complaints:

1st:in wc3 engine, if you have a really lotsa units, it WILL lag to hell.
2nd:if i would play mans killing thenselves with muskets, I prefer to play rise of nations, they can have + than 200 guys w/ musket and smoke and it don´t lag abit

as I said it´s your MOD/Campaign I just givin´my opinion.

I said this already, but how about "Times of Conflict" for a name. Rise Of Nations is a 2d game, and not as popular as warcraft.

Times of Conflict is a good name... Note.... rise of nations isn't in 2D... well, not the units, but the buildings and trees is in 2d... the rest is 3d... but that reduce lagg much anyway... and we don't need 200 units for it.. i mean, they don't have to have that much more units than like the original warcraft... just a few more
