World of Warcraft Reforged - Info

World of Warcraft Reforged is a multiplayer Open World Roleplay-Game custom map for the real time strategy game Warcraft III: Reforged. It is based on the popular older custom map World of Warcraft Reborn by DeMoNiKuS and originally made by EvilPitlord. There have been multiple remakes of World of Warcraft Reborn, the other most famous one being WoW Reanimated by Huntsman. This map is another remake of World of Warcraft Reborn with different content and different features, as well as Computer AI support. The player can choose a game mode, a hero, a profession and if you are a Warlord you also choose a race and start the game. Hence, the map combines RPG and RTS play styles in a unique way. It is an open world map where you can pretty much do whatever you want:

Level and skill your heroes.
Build bases.
Complete quests.
Kill units and bosses.
Attack or ally other players.
Loot items.
Play with and against Computer AI.

The hero level defines what game features are available for you. You will get more interesting and powerful features with a higher hero level like in almost any other RPG. See Hero Journey for more information. VIP players have more features unlocked from the beginning of the game. The cheat "-unlock" allows you to unlock everything.
