I'm going to start a map for Warcraft 3, something I've long been wanting to do: Zombies!!! No, this won't be a TD, it won't be a DotA-like map, much like a campaign-type map in which you venture down into a village destroyed razed by the Undead. It might not turn out as good as I want to, since I'm not that experienced in map-making but I'm learning about triggers and such. I might be able to pull it off afterall.

Anyway, right now I'd like your thoughts on my 2 ideas:

Idea 1 - As a Bandit Leader, you decide on pillaging a village to expand your band of thieves and to take as much treasure as possible. Instead you think of raiding a bigger place: a CITY! You haven't been caught up with the news, however.
You enter the city you plan to pillage, but something seemed unusual. Everything seemed, empty, and it seemed ruined. It was as if someone else raided it already. You venture deeper.. this city was already invaded... by the Undead. You can't turn back now, it's dangerous. You must get through the exit of the city, fighting the villagers-turned-zombies. They aren't the only enemies, however. Soldiers from a powerful city have decided to "cleanse" the city and make it their own. They'll kill anyone, but not their own. Kill, or be killed. That's the motto you set your thieves to follow.

Idea 2 - A city has been infected. The general of the city that neighbors it, decides to send the best men he had in order to contain the infection in it, and to scare the ever-growing undead.
He entrusted you to destroy the infected as much as possible. Don't worry, he sent priests to purify the infection contained in you. They're very powerful beings indeed, but that won't do it. It's Quality vs. Quantity here. And yes, the Undead comes in huge numbers. Not only that, Grave Robbers and refugees add up to the worries. The general is sure to replace you when you won't make it alive. All you can hope for now is reinforcement from him.

Yeah I'm sorry if I told a story-description thing in each idea, but it's basically bandits as main characters or humans as main characters. Go, pick which one sounds good. I might consider suggestions, but just some. Hope you all help.

Why dont you set it in the warcraft 3 era? As in knights of lorderon are sent to quell an important infected farming village from the scourges plague. Sent to investigate a missing trading caravan then they stumble upon shit loads of zombies!

human campaign in reign of chaos that ,,,



played hero siege?

do a that ,,, just halloweenier?

@Hunter: Yes indeed, I am going to set it in the WC3 era. It just sounds a lot like how real life would be.

I'm going to cancel this, no zombies anymore, since it takes lots of time. I want to get it done by halloween. Instead, I'm going to commence in a project in which you're the enemy!!
You command a chaotic army from Outland, and you start out putting a city in ruins. After all, you're the Avatar of Chaos(working title). Chaos is in your blood. Atleast, when you were possessed by it...

There's no real point in doing this if there's no zombies!

HMMMM, maybe, I should keep the demon idea or separate this map from the original idea. It just takes lots of time. I can work on the zombie map instead y'knows. Well, depends on my mood.

A'know mayn, I'm lazy. Gonna work on mr. Demon first.
