Because they spawn after certain events, the campaign is Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos, but with some Frozen Throne additions.

So if they are made playable by editing they would be a little before their time.

We plan a Frozen Throne version later - but i guess people will play with them in the wrong setting anyway.

We can't have Lordaeron and Forsaken at the same time, and the same applies to High Elves/Blood Elves.

Oh right I forgot about the starting date haha
Indeed having Terenas and Sylvanas ruling Lordaeron at the same time wont do :d
Too bad tho, will have to wait for a TfT version to play as the Dark Lady :(
Guess its the same for Scarlet Crusade then

Nope, it's not.

The Scarlet Fleet is playable and starts in Northrend.

It's a compromise between the factions we want to have presence in the mod and the lore. For example Theramore is already founded even though Lordaeron is mostly intact, as well as the Burning Legion already being present in Azeroth in some capacity.

Basically the Scarlet Crusade exists, but it is formed before Lordaeron falls and instead is made of soldiers who launch a preemptive strike against the Scourge in Northrend. MrNygren calls it the Scarlet Fleet because the initial leaders are the leaders of the Scarlet Fleet, but that's pretty much it.

And the Scarlet Fleet is from the Frozen Throne expansion, just like the Naga - they are a little before their time.

Also, Scarlet Fleet is a lore-accurate term.

"Barean Westwind of Kul Tiras was once a prominent member of the Scarlet Crusade. He was part of the Scarlet Fleet's disastrous expedition to Northrend, and was lost off the Frozen Coast."

Basically the Scarlet Fleet went for Northrend in Frozen Throne, but we have placed it in Reign of Chaos.

Also, it got lost off the Frozen Shore in lore and never reached it's goal to bring war to the Scourge - in this mod however - they did reach the Frozen Shore where they set up a base. Seems they succeeded in bringing war to the Scourge and anyone else there.

hello author: I have an error that I want to tell you that I do not know if it will be in my case or it will be general but I will do it with images so that I can see it, it is appropriate when I click on the cities of the scourge of the living dead, the game is minimized and I get this Prntscr.com and when I give ok the game is closed,
I just got in to make sure and the error I get when I click on any city in the campaign, whether it's my city, whether it's human, elf or nagas or other races.
(I must say that I wrote this in the translator because I do not speak English so apologize if it is something confusing to understand, but I did not want to break the thread of the mod)
I must remark that my computer is windows 7, 64bits but meets by far the requirements that the game asks me
I just saw the downloadable file that solves the error, sorry for my lack of attention, and I'm grateful for creating this mod!

Description

The unplayable Forsaken faction - could be made playable by some simple text edits.

I did take the time to fix the mini-map, description and leader-portrait just in case. - Instead of keeping the old one from the vanilla game.
