Warcraft IV: Red Horizons

Warcraft III: Frozen Throne mod |

This map attempts to answer the question: What if Blizzard develops Warcraft 4 to be a more traditional RTS? The result is fast-paced gameplay with heroes taking a less important role and brute force being emphasized over magic. A fully functional navy has been implemented and the custom effects and models have maintained Blizzard-like quality. Also, units feel more deadly and less cartoonish/feminine, as many models have been replaced with more badass counterparts. Two new gameplay systems have been added: one for the Undead and Orcs and one for the Humans and Night Elves. These new units and abilities are accessed through the worker units' advanced build button, or in the case of the Night Elves, by training a Blood Elf engineer.

The full version of Warcraft IV: Red Horizons can now be downloaded. Play a creative and professionally executed altered-melee mod over LAN or single player. More than enough features to be considered a full-fledged expansion . . . Perhaps enough to be the stand-in for Warcraft IV until Blizzard develops the real thing.

This mod attempts to realize what could be if Blizzard develops Warcraft IV to be more traditional RTS. Heroes retain an important role but are no longer the centerpiece. Armies are larger. Weapons are more powerful. Hundreds of custom abilities and units have been added in addition to new gameplay systems.
