Plot for a Campaign

I'm to lazy to make this, and I'm working on something else so here it goes.
*End of Warcraft 3, tree being destroyed, killing Archimonde as well.*
*Archimonde appears back in hell, back to his throne room, a servant comes*
Servant "The Master wants to see you Archimonde"
Archimonde "I... can't believe those worthless elves defeated me. I'll get this over with, tell him I am coming"
*Archimonde leaves his room and travels to another unexplained place, where a black titan awaits*
??? "So you have finally came fool. I made you lord of the demons, gave you innumerable powers. Yet you were to pitiful, to stupid, and failed to take that world, TWICE!! I believed you were strong enough, I was wrong, you must pay for this, you know"
Archimonde "YOU CANNOT DO THIS TO ME, I BOW TO NO ONE EVEN YOU"
??? "So you now think yourself powerful enough to defeat me. Lets see how you fare in the Mazes of Limbo without the powers I granted you"
*This is basic idea of begining, Archimonde is sent to the 1st layer of hell. Stripped of his power (Read: Level 1), and with vengeance on his mind. He slowly progresses back down the levels of hell, meeting old friends, and rallying demons to his side. His original plan was just to spite the titan, but through it he decides to do a full scale Rebellion, and conquer it for himself. The entire campaign is about the fall and return of Archimonde to power.*

I must say that might be really hard to pull of successfully. There are so many ideas out there that never make it because people can't put those basic thoughts into a good story (or game in this case.)

I just can' get ppl to be interested in my story (which is probably more planned out than the game itself). Either way one day i may be abl to find a modler...

I can model, but I have a mac so I wouldn't be able to convert it to whatever. What I could do (If you told me the story) is make the models and you do whatever you need to do to convert them to warcraft mxq or whatever it is. You might also skin them if you want.

First of all, there is no "Hell"

The Burning Legion is a Universal evil. They go around sucking magic out of planets and such. Secondly, Archimonde didn't fail twice. The first time he wasn't heading the invasion.

If that "Black Titan" is Sargeras, then I regret to infrom you that he is Dead, and buried. If you could somehow provide an explanation of how he came back to life then alright.

Secondly, i doubt that the same demons and such who recieved their power from Sargeras would Rebel.

Just my thoughts.

Man I thought it was a neat idea. You could make a new race of demons for the player to control. It would be mostly demons and you can have units for the other evils like undead and chaos orcs perhaps. It would be cool if you came up with soe new original buildings system or something that made them entirely unique from the 4 races around.

I agree with everything up until the above part. Sargeras is completely unaccounted for - I think he's caught in a rift in the maelstrom. His essence kept escaping, which is why the Guardians of Tirisfall were forced to keep a watch out for his influence and spirit. The tomb was one such essence, with various demons within that were driven mad over time.

Well, see the description of Archi in the manual - his plan was to steal the essence from the World Tree to make him immensely powerful, even though Sargeras was supposed to absorb it all.
Maybe even then he'd think he could take Sargeras on.

My opinion - I know I'd much rather Archimonde be dead and stay so. It's a lazy idea for SC and WC3 campaigns - bringing back heroes, especially dead ones.
If I did a campaign, I'd have a new dread lord (Or Warlock) seizing power and attempting some evil scheme for Azeroth. We'd also have an original character who could be unique and have a potential for not being the same villain as before.

Hmmm well I have learned somthing from this and my own campaign: Never put any real ties beetween your campaign and others. If you can make it originaal it is good. BTW this is what Alexian said which makes this discussions usless, I can't be bothered to put a quote but if you don't belive he/she said this then check the top of the page.

Alexian:I'm to lazy to make this, and I'm working on something else so here it goes.

Does this not tell us somthing?
