You will find that you are always ready to play just one more mission as the epic story with its suspenseful plot twists and exciting gameplay deliver a memorable experience you won’t soon forget.īlizzard Entertainment has excelled admirably in delivering an expansion pack that serves as the model for others to follow. One exciting quest will have you assembling a powerful magical artifact, to yet another in which you must escort a caravan of Blood Elves through Undead territory. Some have you taking a small party of units into an area and attempting to solve its mysteries. Not all involve building up your forces and attacking a nearby enemy. The strong RPG element is evident in the various special quests you must undertake. There is even a secret level you will definitely enjoy playing if you discover and unlock it in one of the missions. These special items will be able to increase many of your stats, such as strength and hit points.īe sure to examine each and every area as some very rare and special treasures will be located only by those that take the time to look for them. Heroes also have inventory slots that allow you to attach special items that you find in the game. The Warden hero can raise a spirit that will fight alongside her in battle. The Blood Elf hero is able to call forth a mighty Phoenix in battle as their ultimate power. Each hero eventually gains an ultimate power after enough experience and levels have been obtained. For example, heroes gain experience from battle that you can use to develop their special abilities. One of the major reasons that I enjoyed this expansion as I did the original game is the excellent RPG element.
Where will their vengeance and thirst for magic lead them? What of Arthas, the Undead and the Lich King? All are important elements in the final and third Undead campaign that will decide the fate of all! What is their dark secret and purpose in the scheme of things? In the second human campaign, you will come across a group calling themselves the Blood Elves, part of the shattered elven nation that hungers for the taste of magic and seeks vengeance for the massacre of their people. As you venture forth on this quest you will discover a new race of sea creatures known as the Naga.
In the first Night Elf campaign you play Warden Maiev Shadowsong who is determined to hunt Illidan Stormrage and at all costs return him to his prison. You will literally be swept away by two new CGI cutscenes and the intense story that drives each of the new missions across three intricately detailed and well-developed campaigns. The Faerie Dragon unit was interesting because it has a phase shift ability which allows it to avoid damage temporarily after it has been hit. The Mountain Giant is an impressive and powerful new unit and I liked their ability to increase strength by picking up a nearby tree and swinging it mightily against enemy units. There is one optional quest in the game that you must use this ability to complete. This special ability allows you to teleport a short distance which you can use to find special items in hidden and hard to reach areas of the Night Elf campaign. I liked the Warden hero and her blink ability because it brought into play some new elements. For example, the Night Elves have the Warden hero along with the Mountain Giant and Faerie Dragon units.
Each of the four races (Orcs, Humans, Undead, Night Elves) has been given a new hero along with two new units.
