A simple teaser for the anticipated alternative storyline campaign, the human 'Zeheroth' series. Featuring maps that include single player and single/multi player. Maps range from medium to hard to 'elite' (professional) difficulty (for certain maps only, normal difficulty versions are available). Single/multi player maps when played by a single player may rise sharply in difficulty but is still possible to claim victory. The whole campaign features a vast range of scenarios and objectives, fighting with and against intelligent AI in sometimes seemingly impossible odds with surprising game-changing twists. Players must decide carefully who, how and when to attack, as some experience of Warcraft III is assumed.
Shattered Halls (Teaser): This teaser contains a very basic structure to the first map of the campaign. It does not contain all the features intended just yet. But me and the dedicated testers would greatly appreciate any comments, suggestions or input into the 'style' of the map, the 'environment and details' of the map, the 'difficulty' of the enemy (especially the enemy heros) and the 'style' of the very little surprise at the near end concerning the skeletons once you defeat the Overseer hero.
A 'test' walkthrough will be provided later for those unable to win (which is highly unlikely if you have enough experience at the game).
Those who make a great contribution will be noted in the credits page of the finalized version of the map or campaign.

OK my 2 cents...
Your map is very beautiful, I rarely see maps that had so much time put into it's look. I can fully appreciate the amount of time you put into making the map fit the atmosphere you want it to.
The gameplay was a bit different to what i'm used to, the bosses were definitely no rollover but they weren't extremely hard either, a good balance. The stone golem was a nice add in the second boss as his hurl boulder made that made much more challenging. The final boss was a bit too hard i thought at first, but on my second attempt i lure the sorceress away first then i was able to kill the boss.
Would have liked a cinematic ending as well as the opening cinematic, especially since you are making it a campaign map?
I actually really liked that map, it was very short but good fun and different from the other maps somehow. I look forward to your next map!
