1st of all id like to say GREAT MOD, ive only played 1 game as wood elfs vs lizzardmen but the mod sure is some good stuff. anyway im going to list bugs for you guys as a come accross them. anyway here are some i found during my 1st game

- elven outposts hotkey does not work. it is ment to be "P" but is still "H"
- farms howkey does not work, its ment to be "E" and im not sure if it even has one at all like the elven outpost emote_sweat
- archers dont upgrade, i think there ment to they just stay on 0 whenever you buy upgrades
- wolfs have no upgrades at all, im not sure if this was intended but if it is, prehaps you should buff them up a bit to compete with the trent which costs about the same and is the same amount of food
- lady of the woods, you should change her voice cause she only has a select voice and nothing else. also you should ethier lower her damage and HP or increase her food and mana, because she does a fair damn amount of damage for a 2 food unit.

anyway ill continue to keep a peice of paper and pen infront of me while i play the mod, i hope this helps.

Some bugs ive noticed:
-Computer makes strange noises when playing campaign then catches fire
-Fire extingusher just makes it worse
-Surges of power make the screen explode
-Strange demonic forces seem to take over the computer
-Demonic forces infest house pets and turn them on you
-After this is all over, computer seems to be fine
-As soon as i play the campaign again, it restarts the process
-Sometimes even possess's sister

These are just a few things. Maybe your game is haunted. No, jk. Sorry about the spam, for some weird reason i just had to do this. Sorry.

ok ok next list of obvios bugs that need fixing, i think u guys need to check how much all your units food cost. food is a very important thing and you seem to have forgotten alot of it. anyway, i played another match as the lizzardmen and have another list

- the skull braziser defence tower is much better than wood elves by far, and it costs the same if not less.

- 3 buildings on the lizzard team are useing the same hotkey "T" the ancient temple, tree of life, and the terrandon Nest, the tree of life is the only building that works from key "T"

- the heavy melee unit, the lizardman Saurus, costs the same amount of food as the light melee unit, the lizard defender, both are 2, the defenders food is allrite but the saurus should be at least 3 if not 4.

- the terrado riders cost 2 FOOD!, that is a serious bug pppl, the best unit on there team, you could mass 12 and fill 1 hole group with only 24 food in use, they should be changed to 4 at least, if not 5 or 6.

- you gave a mage lizard a food of 6, its not "that" good, sure 3 of these guys would cause the hero never to use a spell again via mana burn but they dont have much more of a use than that.

i suggest you guys look at all your food counts, even out the food counts and it will bring the sweet mod getting close to being balenced.

please note: i problay wont post any of the troll races bugs, i really hate that race =P, next is choas, which i have seen the computer use 1on1 and they look pretty cool :D

found a single bug that needs fixing VERY QUICKLY.

- the trolls market is invunerable, its impossible to win since you cant blow up an invunerable building. the market is owned by the player who builds it.
now im starting to wonder if you beta tested this mod or not, you could make 1 great mod if it wasent for these bugs, they are all simple bugs you should be able to fix in a matter of an hour.

EDIT: -archers dont upgrade, i think there ment to they just stay on 0 whenever you buy upgrades.

I think I've mentioned this before.

There's something wrong with the Lady of the Woods' Thorns Aura.

The hotkey for the Elven farm is shift.

Tool tip missing for the Frost Armor magic of the Hero of the Trolls.

Fixed all of them now :) Expect 3.0 verison to be more or less bug free. Keep the bugs coming ok? I want ALL of them removed for the 3.0 version. And while you're here, check my Work In Porgress topic to see what models are ready. ;)

Some things that i want improved.

- when gathering gold with chaos race, the demons make an horrible sound, you cant even look after your base and after only a couple of minutes this sound will make u mad.
-cut down the number of units, its to many units to chose from. (all races)
-Make all the units a bit weaker. I think that hit points and damage could follow the blizzard standard a bit more.
-Cut the mammoth units like the troll(ogre) with 2500 hp and over 100 damage. Make him weaker and decrease cost and food supply cost (16 food 0_o).
I can come up with more but i must play it some more first, ill be back with more

Now i played some with the chaos race (without sound 8) )
Here is my thoughts.

-The two spiders does not fit in and you dont need them, almost all the other units are more powerful melee warriors than the brood mother. The spitting spider is not that good either.
-A chaos warrior with less then half its original hp kicked the pit lord heros ***. The chaos warrior was not upgraded on neither armor nor weapons. Sure lvl 1 heros are not powerful, but they are not supposed to lose a fight with a badly damaged tier 1 unit.
It would be like a tauren chieftain losing a fight with a 350 hp grunt.
-Its kinda boring to get ultimates at lvl ten :/
-The chaos hero with Archimonde skin has two slot three spells, which means that you can only use 3 of his 4 spells.
-I must mention the horrible sound again :nono:

you should give the lady of the wood alot spells, so she really IS a master spellcaster. more mana too.

you could also remove the spiders, as said b4, becuz, they are pretty unneeded cuz the race has enough units already

Jedi_r8,

1. I HATE THAT SOUND! Working on removing it :P

2. Cut down units.. nah i kinda like it this way. Reminds me of total annihilation.

3. Err what diffrent would it make.. let me see I've already boosted all the units health with 200 and made lvl 25 available. Now why should I spend alot of work doing something that would only make a diffrense in number and not in gamplay?

4. Heh, the mammot units is the race's proudness. If you do not like them, then don't use them. They are balanced after all.

5. I will fix the spider the way i fixed the lizard on the troll race. Move them to other places. I'll remove the brood mother and move the spider to Lava Lake I'll think. Then I'll move the demon lord to underground colony and move the beastman shaman to the lava lake. I think that should make it a bit more organized.

6. The chaos warriors are meant to kick ***. So is the whole chaos race. They're strong but expensive.

7. That is the price for having lv 25 heroes. Patience my friend, don't be too hasty with the ultimates, you CAN be good without them too.

8. That isn't a problem if you play with him to lvl 10 you'll notice that he have all the spells. It's just the learning screen that's not fixed.

9. I HATE THAT SOUND!

Dre:

I've fixed that already.

well i think dispell magic, cyclone, and thorn aura arte a bit less. i suggest giving her cenarius cyclone so its one row higher and giving her some additional spells, and raising her mana to 300 or 350.

suggested spells:

-force of nature
-rejuvenation
-maybe even sentinel
-if you want to take time for it, you could edit the water elem spell to make her summon som kind of flying hawk bird with few armor or hp, but with a good attack.

btw if you should do this, give her like, 600 hp max or so, to make her not too powerful.

just some suggestions, it's your mod, do whatever seems best for you.

thanks for the suggestion Dre, I'll think about it.

SCVirus: Can't you just SHUT UP. I tierd of you're spamming. Stop attaching stuff and stop writing in caps. Saying that it would have to cost much would have been enough, you don't have to write ****ING HORNY TON.
