Chronicles of Azeroth - Dawn of a new Era

(1/13) > >>

SirFranc:
Chronicles of Azeroth is a brand new expansion pack (or eventually will end up being one since is already 500+ mb of size and so far is mostly maps)
[center:2ig186gc]Azeroth Map (i'll add soon Kalimdor map too)[/center:2ig186gc]


[center:2ig186gc]Lore[/center:2ig186gc]
Five years have passed since the battle at Icecrown Citadel.. that ended into a stalemate...
Nobody understood clearly what happened... the citadel just got covered in an unpassable mist...
And while the paladins of the Argent Crusade wait... for years in the frozen Wastes, the war rages on Azeroth...

Stromgarde has been rebuilt, with the desperate fight of proud heroes the power of this once great nations has risen again to unite the shattered people of Lordaeron under one flag...
The scourge, withdrew massively from Lordaeron, has been pushed back and is now shut in their dark holds.. .Scholomance... Plaguewood... Stratholme...

But a new evil has begun to threaten the world... the Burning Steppes and Searing Gorge got twisted and deformed by the dark will of a new entity known as the Dark God, earthquakes and tremors have torn asunder this land...  the Blackrock Orcs sought refuge in the badlands and the forces of Stormwind do their best to push back the flow of burning soldiers that comes down from the lands now known as Darklands.

Kul Tiras has recovered completely from the damage of the last war, and his fleet has been fully refurnished and rebuilt, now ready to wipe out the Orc race or die trying...
... but the Orcs won't stand without fighting! as the war rages they sought new allies in their brothers now refugees of Blackrock and Dragonmaw, and with their joined help they build the new city of New Mammerfall, to oppose the growing power of Stromgarde.

The Amani trolls have been renuited too under one flag and once again the goal to rebuild the feared Amani Empire is now real...
... as the Amani trolls joined back to their old allies, the horde, the Blood Elves decided to leave behind both factions and shut themselves in Quel'Thalas, studying a way to restore the Sunwell, Silvermoon is running out of fel energy as Kael'Thas has been defeated and their time is running short...

New forces are raising... old hatreds revived.. new and old heroes will guide the people of Azeroth to victory, or glorious defeat!

Too much text, more pictures. (Also to see what has already been done and what hasn't)
From the worldbuild showoffs it looks really great also very close to Blizzlike which is of course good in this respect ;)
