Wars of Azeroth 1.0

I'm sure many of you have played some of the beta versions of WoA. (If you haven't, they can be found at this link ).
Anyhow, since the earlier ones were simply betas, I've been working on the "final" release 1.0 version of Wars of Azeroth for about a month or two now. This means the map is about 90% complete, and all I really have left to finish are the quests. Untill I release the map to the public, here's a few screenshots of the game thus far.
__________

This is one of the starting Orc/Troll quests. Orcs and Trolls both start off in the same general region, in the same city.


An Orc standing outside the main Orc city, dual wielding two different weapons.


OOOOLD screenshot of the Human/Dwarf starting area (alot more special effects, etc. added since)

__________

The general system for WoA is very similar to an Owen/SOL's crossover, though alot of people have compared it to WoW. It's similar to Owen in that when you're hero levels, you're given stat points to select which stats you would like to raise. And obviously they both have an equipment-displaying system. Abilities can be learned once the appropriate scroll for the ability has been found. You can then use the scroll for the ability, and a skill point, to learn that ability permanently. All abilities rank up as your intelligence rating increases. Though there are a few abilities that are purchasable in every capital city, there are a few abilities that must be obtained through more violent means. :>
I'll try to get some new screenshots out soon.

I have a hard time beleiving you are the true creator of this map... because I alpha tested it on USWest, with a host named Alex(something). Unless he was your friend or something..

It must've leaked to USWest then. I've only distributed this privately among a 7-player clan game on USEast. I'm pretty sure it says "made by h4xx0r" on it somewhere.

Yes, well there are always leaks I understand, anyway, nice map! I see it's improved from it's.. uh... earlier stages =P. However, how fast-pace is this version? Because people have complained on the time it takes to level, either too fast or too slow - that goes beyond the fact that the items were much too strong for lower levels. It could be more improved to make an item stat requirement. (which I guess has most likely been implemented as you have used a similair stat system as in D2.

Currently, killing things your own level around 10-20 will level you every 3-5 kills.
I tried implementing a "simple" weapons requirement trigger that restricts weapons by tens (level 20's can equip weapons levels 1-29, etc.)
I'm pretty sure that whatever version was leaked was horrifyingly riddled with bugs. =P
Side note for levelling, the creeps and world map only permit your hero to reach level 75, but ability ranks and stats can support your hero up to level 100.

(ALSO) Forgot to mention that this game will have a storyline attached to it (through quests), and a few "interactive" quests (team vs. team quests, such as escorting a nightelf runner to the human capital, while defending from horde who's goal is to steal the runner's vital documents).
Edit: The game walks you through a quest for every race from levels 1-5, so you hopefully don't end up with people who leave 2 seconds into the game.

Awesome, well I would suggest using a cool system like Invx http://www.wc3campaigns.com/showthre...highlight=invx . For that matter, it allows you to do all sorts of things.
