Well, I hope it turns out ok, and I hope it looks good. I can't wait, but I'm also making an RPG right now, so just ask me and I could help you.

I was thinking of maybe doing something rather than another Human based RPG.

Something along the lines of a Night Elf or possibly even an Orc or an Undead centered map....possibly you could decide which of the 2-4 different RPGs you could play....I could help with the triggering on that...andf split the map in 1/2 or even into quarters....

a plot for a wc3 rpg?

Umm...

A plot that combines elves, orcs, and undead (centered on the undead mostly since they are the least played race...)

It's the middle ages for the land of #NAME#, for a long time the humans have ruled the lands of this poor country. And the end of a long war between the orcs and elves. The elves being a race of magic, created in the war a secret weapon. But that was years ago, the weapon, a spell scroll was lost in the battles, and a human found it. Being human, he was curious, and read the scroll, not understanding it, he brang it to his grandfather, he read it allowed, in elvish, then in the human language to the child who didn't understand a word of it. The scroll read (in english) "We shall live... Our purpose to conquer, a dead orc is worth 10 of us, one of our dead is worth 10 more of us. We shall live..." Far away, in a battlefield strewn with the dead of elves and orcs, a thousand skeletons rose from the ground summoned by a distant call. Their leaders, three heroes rose too. The undead came again. (the undead must rampage through the human towns destroying everything)

The orc part of it:

Earlier on, the orcs had discovered of the plan of the elves to create a "secret weapon" capable of raising armies of dead orcs and elves from a battlefield to do the elves bidding. But the orcs also knew that currently, if this weapon was used, the dead would be nder no control and rampage the earth doing nothing. Now was the time to strike and take the weapon back. They struck in the night taking the elf fortress by surprise. No elf or orc survived, and the fortress fell from the weight of orc catapults firing on it, the scroll was lost and the orcs had won their first battle. (the orcs now have to eliminate the rest of the elves, and their scrolls, there was 1 scroll in each fortress)

The elves:

The elves story is sad, they were at peace for years and years with the orcs, but one lonely elf ran amis in the woods crying because his love had given up on him. He ran into an orc, and in his madness destroyed it, instantly he was surrounded by orcs. Being a warrior, he killed them to get revenge for his love giving up. But it was not enough for him, his ideas ran crazy and he began to kill every orc he found, regardless of why. Soon he convinced other elves to fight with him, they named him #NAME# and he became their leader. The orcs, who didn't know what was really going on, ralied inside their greatest fortresses and started destroying any elf that came naerby these great stone towers. Crazed by the one leader of the elves, both sides ruthlessly slauthered each other, hundreds of years later, a new generation of elves are prepared to sto pthe madness by any means. (Kill the orcs is the first part of the elves quest) after hte orcs made peace with the elves on the terms of having forgotten the reason to fight, they joined with each other with the main quest of stopping the new enemy, the human - undead armies. (The undead joined forces with thehuman, and are now advancing on the elves)

Tips and pointers:

-putting movie scenes at the begginnning of each of these would make it very cool.
-If you do make these, put them all in one game, so people will play it more than once.
-Difficulty is not as important as fun, make it hard, but make it very fun for players and not frustrating for newbies.
-Bloody battles are always fun for little kiddie players, whenever the orcs/humans/undead/elves fight, make sure blood flys.
-Having all three of these rpg's inside one map would be difficult to do if you divided it up, try making all three rpg's use the same base map, (a large land with rivers, human territory, orc territory, elves and the undead starting area) then re-use areas in each different thing.
-the map should be SAD very very SAD!! this is not a happy map, i don't remember if you can set weather or time of day, but if possible make it constantly nighttime and raining or snowing, something that makes your heart plummet when you see it.
-the whole idea of this map is destruction, but make sure players have heroes that dont become infintely srong is necessity, make hereos who get to lvl 10 become a differnt unit, then continue lvl'ing up from 1-10 again.

Those are all my ideas for now... if you do use the ideas, plz gimme credit for the storyline, if not, i can make up something else, but it's easier if you give me something to base it on (elves are mad at undead for some reason... or orcs are trying to destroy a naval base owened by the elves..) just a theme to work on is easier.

how about... your nightelf and you figt the orc... doing what tass said, and just have the human/ undead scenes in movie form... frank can do that, we can be ne heros, like you can pick for 10 ne heros in beginning that you will be in that whole game... i can unit edit and landscape, or just unit edit, but if like 4 of us are making it, we need to play pass the map, the landscaper first, then the unit spell and the other editor ppl second third and fourth, then the triggs at the end, or the spell aditor last, because i believe you need to readd them when you edit the map

mostly the way i wrote it, i was trying to ge people to think about LETTING players chose whch "part" of the game their in.

I made a simple timeline that explained the series of events and where each race fits in:

beginning:
elf attacsk orcs
orcs begin fighitng elves (ELF PART OF STORY)
elves invent secret weapon (ORC PART OF STORY)
elves and orcs are at peace
humans use weapon
undead come alive
undead and humans colide (UNDEAD PART OF STORY
undead/human attack elves (ELF PART OF STORY)

i can write more about this if anybody wants me too. I can also write up a real story if you want, to facilitate the making of the terrain and what it should look like.

Ok back to demonmarins first question after my big post, what would you do?

1. As the undead, you would mostly be fighitng against the humans in their large fortress towns. Un dead heroes would have to have mostly a combo of spells and normal attacking combined.
2. Orcs mostly spend their time massacring elves and getting massacred, their heroes would be warlords, just for bloddy massacres.
3. The elves spend their time defending castles and towns from the orcs and undead, their heroes and armies would be magic casters straight to the core.

hmm sorry, i forgot to post in my big previous post about the undead, i only posted things for the elves and orcs, here they are!

the UNDEAD:

The undead were summoned by a mere human, and having been awakened from their eternal sleep you can imagine that they weren't happy. They, like the elves, wanted revenge for no reason. A ruthless but quick battle consisting of the greatest undead hero destroying the humans almost instantly. Soon the undead took control of the humans, and they became one. The mass armies of zombies and skeletons then turned their faces towrads the massive lands of the peaceful orcs and elves. Magic was nothing towards them, un dead are some of the most powerful in the magic typoes. As the undead advanced they became more and more powerful, but so did the elves. Soon they clashed (this is the only time in the game where it doesn't matter which side wins, it's not a quest of any sort) the elves and human/undead fought to the death for no reason whatsoever.

The outcome:

if the undead win, the world is run over with undead, but the undeads own people backstab them, the heroes are left all alone to defend themselvres from the peril of the whole world.

if the elves win, the undead are pushed back into death, the elves slowly close in on the last heroes who must TRY to make heroic push ******d.


If you guys like this storyline ill write a real good one tonight or staurday.
