New patches, map, Starcraft 2 in game group news

Greetings!

We've been working hard to give you guys even more. We released a new patch for both Warcraft 1 and Warcraft 2 which changed a lot of things. Also with the new version a new map came and we created an in game group too as the first step to boost our community. So lets get into the details.

New Warcraft 2 map: One Way In, One Way Out

This 1v1 map can be familiar to Warcraft 2 veterans. There are destructible rocks on the middle of the map with only one connection to the other side. First the center of the war will be this one connection but later you can crave your own path to the enemy with Goblin Sappers or Dwarven demo squads. You have multiple Gold Mines on each side. Fierce battles are ensured.

Walls, Walls everywhere

We added Wall building to Warcraft 1 and Warcraft 2. In Warcraft 1 you can build Walls from the Town Hall like the Road. You must place these Walls in the range of your structures or next to another wall.

In Warcraft 2 Walls are built by your Peons or Peasants. They build Wall pieces one by one. Hold down the shift key to order the construct of multiple Walls.

Starcraft 2 Options won't cause issues anymore

Some people experienced issues like couldn't see the build list of the workers. These issues were created by the options of Starcraft 2. Many people don't know about these options and think it was a bug of our mod so we had to solve the problem. Now the game will force the following options:
-Simple UI disabled
-Enemy unit selection enabled
-Alerts enabled.

Don't worry, once you finished the match your Starcraft 2 options will reset back to your preferences.
