    Looks awesome...

    One question... Why do all the cities and towns in these pictures all have the utterly pissed off warning sign?

    Because the map is in development. I'm pretty sure there are no garrisons or proper religion/culture percentages for those regions. The team is probably trying to get a completely functional map with ground types, heights, and regions added in before getting to the particulars of such.

    Just a bit of advice from someone who has been mapping for a while. You might want to try not to have so many right angles once you get to trying to smooth out your coasts. The right angles will cause them to look blocky. But great job though, like the progress.

    Can I suggest making most of darnassus forest. It is the site of the new (failed) world tree?

    yes, but that world tree hasnt started growing yet, and i remember walking around in teldrassil, most of it is forest, but not all of it.

    Maybe I could add too a sugestion. Please if you are going to make Theramore a starting faction, then make it so they have a very underdeveloped region only in Theramore (not the marshes and such in front of it) so that it may sound more balanced as if they had just arrived there at the start of the mod (I know it isn't very lorewise because they go first to Stonetalon Peak, but I think it's a nice idea. As for Darnassus, you could make the island all surrounded by mountains, only with a little opening in the south to board/unboard ships.

    INTRODUCING MY BEST UNIT YET....

    the HUMAN GENERAL

    Attachment 51789

    Attachment 51790

    Attachment 51791

    Attachment 51792

    this general is wearing the WoW lvl 60 Grand Marshal plate or lamellar (i forget ) armor.

    (the shoulders were really hard to make, and trust me, this would look better then the shoulders i made )

    this was easy but tedious (it took me a day to make).

    everything you see here is either made by CA or by me.

    YOU LIKE TAURENS!

    Taurens are going to be part of the horde faction in WTW.

    I agree that for the generals the armour and weapons perhaps should be "wowish like" but for the normal units I think that normal weaponry should do, like the stormwind footman for example, that armor is quite good, and for militia-level a simple chainmail would do as well, I guess the only units that are ok to put "epiclike armor" are really the heroes/generals/very high ranking units. Otherwise it would give a sense of "uber elite pvp fanatics" rather than a total war army xD.

    That is good, altough it seems too much medieval 2. We could change the map a bit I think and include more regions. In Lordaeron for example there are very few, and if lordamere horsemen are recruited only from castles and they come from the shores of lordamere lake and the capital is a city (you will not make it a castle right? o_O it's a capital city xD). Then I think it would only be good if there were a smaller province with a castle near the capital city (representing a fort of sorts) in which they could be trained. I don't know... it would add more imersion to the game and it would be lorewise. And things like that fort near stormwind.. I don't know it's name, it could be added too, that way we could have cities and then castles near each other, facilitating recruitment and retraining. I think the best mod in which you could base your ideas is Third Age Total War.

    What map are you looking at? Because the one that I'm making will have Lordaeron start the campaign with 11 regions (4 castles and 7 cities).

    thats a good idea, but there will be too many cities and castles and it would cause lordaeron to be overpowered

    Time to face the true. As far as I saw the progress, I think faster I`ll tell you this, more changes will come. Kalimdor map is... too big guys. Bigger does not allways means better. And ashenvale for example... it doesn`t looks even close to the one from Warcraft. I know taht you`ll harras me now, but someone had to say it. I kile the idea of this mod, and I want to help, not to fight. Here http://mapwow.com/ you have coplete map of warcraft world. Use it.. and make your map looks better. Also you should use wowwiki for units models and lore. Thats all from me. Thank you.
