It feels impossible to siege an expansion with 2-3 towers

Is it just me, or if you choose to creep instead of expand, and your opponent expands

Once they put down 3 towers that may as well be like 9-10 units

Like if you have rifles and footmen you may as well just leave the game, right?

Ruins of Lordaeron recreated in Wc3 map

I'm recreating my NPC bots with WoW models and giving them abilities based on their class. I'm making it a 3v3 with a healer on the enemy bots team in an attempt to make it look fully like WoW PvP while playing against my bots. They already have most of the stuff, I just need to spend a day making sure the animations look good, and a little bit of balancing which won't be hard to do with all bots. The player will be able to play as anything they choose, alongside two damage dealing friendly NPC bots... At some point, Sonic the hedgehog might fall from the sky as a friend of no one.

I added the slowmo at the end to show how I can manipulative animations - I added Sonic in one hour and the Tauren model this afternoon.

First online playtest for Warhammer...something something

Hey guys!

Here is the first proper-online play test of my upcoming project!
Theres still many kinks (no hotkeys, no cooldowns, no pathing...) and a lot of stuff is still in testing-mode (you wont be able to spawn armies using a menu like that!) but overall its getting very playable!

Would love to find some warhammer/rts-enthusiasts who would like to help me balance the shit out of this, lots of play testing involved and luckily there is even an ingame editor to change unit stats on the go! let me know!

There will be heaps of units in the end and the goal is to have a point system to purchase them and the balance will be around that, making the cost of units show their worth.

Most abilities, traits and items will be addons with their own point price - So it will allow many regiments to play differently - here you can see me using different traits on night goblins - Currently I can add them freely but that wont be the case in the game.

Edit: I understand many of you are concerned about the darkness but weather conditions are optional, you don't have to fight in a thunderstorm lol.

Lore accurate fishing

Reeling the fish in costs energy, the same for the fish when it "bursts" away (the red exclamation ‼️is a pre warning). The player will lose more energy if they are reeling the fish in at the same time the fish is "bursting" away. Player will lose the fish at 0 energy or if the fish gets too far. If both have zero energy, not reeling the fish will cause it to swim side to side with no distance change.

Eventually adding snags to get stuck on, diverse fish to catch with unique abilities, a "Yank" left/right ability to manually change the direction of the fish and also nudge in the chosen direction - to avoid snags.

The gods of Warhammer have arrived.

Chaos knights might be a bit OP... Balance and pathing will come 🥴 too good not to share this.

Warcraft 3 Coop Campaign For Spoon

Spoon, if you’re reading this, I’ve gotta give you a huge shoutout for creating what I consider the absolute best co-op campaigns in Warcraft 3. My friend and I are having an absolute blast playing through them together.

One thing I’m wondering is whether the difficulty could be adjusted a bit. Some missions in the original single-player campaign are fairly challenging on Hard. However, in the co-op campaign, my friend, who has almost no RTS experience, and I, who would consider myself a moderately experienced RTS player, have found Hard mode as my friend said, "Brain Dead Easy". At the same time, Insane feels nearly impossible for us.

Is there any chance we could get a difficulty level somewhere between Hard and Insane? I know this is mostly wishful thinking. I’d be happy to share some thoughts or ideas on how that middle ground could work, so feel free to DM me.

Either way, I’d encourage every Warcraft 3 fan to give these campaigns a try. Playing through the story with a friend makes the game feel fresh again, and the additional secrets and bosses sprinkled throughout the missions are a lot of fun to find.

World of Warcraft with lightsabers - Ruins of Lordaeron with WoW Gnome model

I just finished making an old school graphics night elf with amazing animations earlier today, but then I realised ported models are the genuine thing - here's a gnome with lightsabers in the Ruins of Lordaeron. I put it together in 2 hours so it still needs work, but I also have work tomorrow 🤧

In Warcraft3 Reforged Campaign, Malfurion and Tyrande will not gain experience from neutral creeps after level 5 significantly delaying their level ups in mission 5.

The classic HD mod also makes the level 1 spiders look bigger than the level 6 brood mother spiders.

After losing my 130 levels in Direct Strike, can't join any room now

I really love playing w3 and the custom games, but oh man, this old system gets me so mad I sometimes wanna send my pc flying. I had to reinstall my game and suddenly I got back to lvl 1 in Direct Strike matches. I got used to it because I figured it was impossible for me to get my levels back, at least that's what I thought. Now, after some disconnects cuz my internet is really unstable last days, all of a sudden I can't join or host any game whatsoever, I did try to verify and repair installation and also changing VPN but nothing worked

now i'm reinstalling w3 all over again and i'm so pissed at blizzard and this 2003 junk that doesn't get a functional platform it truly deserves.

any tip of what might be the problem for this sudden impossibility of hosting or joining games??

Unable to join online custom games

All lobby pings are displayed as red question marks instead of actual numbers.
Most maps appear as if they are not downloaded, even though they are.
Whenever I try to join a lobby, I get the message: "The game you attempted to join could not be found. You may have entered the name incorrectly or the game creator may have canceled the game."

Does anyone have the same problem, and does anyone know how to fix it?

WC3 Reforged over Tailscale? Or LAN options for remote friends?

Me and my friends will often have Battle.net issues, where it's the "unable to join" error or last night when the servers were down when we all wanted to play. I already use Tailscale so I had my brother install it to try and configured it properly. https://github.com/kradalby/wc3ts shows up as an option to broadcast my friend's lobby, but I could not get it to work. It is severely outdated but since it was quick I tried it anyway but no dice.

Does anyone have experience doing this? If so what do you recommend.
