okay:

Story is here:

Storyline u: (err might sounds as LOTR )

okay many yars ago there were 4 big kingdoms: renevants, humans, dwarfs and Elves. The Renevants on Nortrend made 4 powerful enchanted swords, 3 they gave to the kingdom kings, the fourth they used to manipulate the kings. After doing that they bexame the rukers of the old world, and now some rebbeled, and finaly killing the renevants and their leader Gul'Dan, so the great sword was lost somewhere on Norterend. A century ago an adventures nam,ed Marcu Mael found the sword and took it, the swrod was powerles, He died and gave it to his soon Chaose male who seemed to be an Elve rebel who wants freedom in the rooten world of humans. He fights and rebels againts the humans and scourghe, the renevants err children. But renevants feeling that theres time has came once again, revied Gul'dan and went to search the sword of Gul'Dan hel in the hanmds of Chaose Mael. First Chapter is m,eeting your friends the BloodElfs leaded by Kael, second is building your vbase attacking humans, third is gathering lumber to asault Dalaran and claim it as yours, you fight the hingktelves but finaly u unite because Furion reived and borught piece, 4 is an interlude whic brings as that a spy heard the plan to asault dalaran and warned the leaders there, 5 is breakling the outer gates of dalaran.. and thats all for now

What's an elve?

Anyway, as i said in a different thread.

World editor can also be and extremely anoying program to work with - triggers and systems can often blow out to monumental proportions if you wish to include complicated features. Object editing can be a long and tedius process while attractive terrain can take extrmely long to perfect.

It is thus that time is often the biggest killer of campaigns and projects.

However, if you do want to continue with a campaign you must realise some things when team gathering.

Primarily you must be aware that there is only a very small pool of talented scripters and artists, for your project to be even considered by any of them you MUST produce an attractive design brief and effectively "sell" us your idea.

Your post is unlikly to attract the sort of quality and number of people you seek due to a number of reasons.

- You fail to provide us with any actually description of what you plan to do, people wanting help "with a campaign" are ten-a-penny, unless you post information to show just HOW detailed your idea is then you will not get any serious attention. REMEMBER a 500 word notepad documment is not sufficient, but nor do you have to do a Tolkien sized manifesto, just make sure you detail every character and mission. When you post, try to have ALL the plotting and planning as complete as possible!
- You don't tell us what your role will be! This is a really common mistake, NO ONE will seriously help you if you want them to do ALL the work. Except in the biggest projects there is no such position as "creative lead".

IF you seriosuly want to get this campaign made to a high standard, and if your idea is THAT great then you may be in with a shot, then create an account and POST all your (detailed) notes. I promise NOONE will steal them, and you maybe, just maybe, will get the help you want.

TDR	don't you think it's a bit late to answer a 3 months old reply?

BBDino	"Are you ready, are you ready for this Are you hanging on the edge of your seat Out of the doorway the bullets rip To the sound of the beat" Anyway, this isn't really reviving cos he has improtant news regarding the original post. Post the maps as open soruce if they are high quality/good/special. Otherwise theres probably little use for them.

- You should try and offer your help to the Wc3:WoW people, maybe even join them. I don't mean to offend you, but I'm glad to hear that there will be only one WoW-project living on. In the beginning I thought that even one was enough, but after seeing how far it's gone and what they have achieved I just have to see where this all ends. Btw, about your own map, are you gonna make it possible for all to download it? I'm guessing you've done a very good job as well ;)

bounty_hunter2	you mean the WoW map?

Aray	I'd prefer to delete my stupid post up there, but I guess I'll just have to leave it there for people to understand what we're talking about :( Yes, I was talking about WoW. And I guess that one is still in progress then?.. What can I say.. woops... Well then, ehem... Gl on your project then! ;D I'll post my oppinions about the WoW map on that thread instead then...
