So far here’s the campaign/unique models that aren’t live yet (in no particular order), how would you expect them to look like in campaign? Here’s how I think they should look
Califax from Brothers in Blood
I expect him to have some sort of a Warden-ish armor
Duke Lionheart from Enemies at the Gate
I expect him to look almost the same with Halakh but his main coat would be decorated with some medals or a duke uniform like an 18th century french uniform.
Guardian of the Deep from To Tame a Land
A sea giant with Makrura armor would look cool
Sea King from To Tame a Land
Absolute king unit if he would ever wear skinned hydra pelt
Skeleton Lord from The Oracle
A skeleton Warden perhaps, since Stonetalon Peak used to be a Night Elf territory
Skeleton King from A Destiny of Flame and Sorrow
A skeleton with some crown and some tall spiked phalanx shield
Captain Thornby from Old Hatreds
A refined captain with a Theramore crest on his shield
Zerx Hydromon from Old Hatreds
This Archmage suits well some Kul Tiran colors and some fringes on his shoulder pads like Daelin Proudmoore
Mystic from Brothers in Blood
This unit must and should be a Druid
Murloc Ritualist from To Tame a Land
I expect this unit to have some water staff and some shell trinkets
Baelgun Flamebeard from Into the Shadow Web Caverns
Would be nice if his armor would be a bit snowed and his avatar form also had glowing runes like Muradin
Militia Commander from King Arthas, Royal Guards from The Crossing
I expect this unit to be almost the same as a Knight but with a Captain Helm and a Shield on his left hand instead of the sword, almost similar to the WC2 Paladin
Militia Captain from King Arthas
I expect this unit to be some tight leather patched unit but with some some armor and a Captain helm
Militia Spearman from King Arthas
I expect this unit to be some Militia but with the equipment of a Brigand
Lord Blackthorn from The Dark Lady
I expect this unit to retain the original classic Bandit Lord model but still reforged and polished, but also with insignia and crests of Alterac on his armor (since the mercenary camps were orange and it was said that the survivng Alteraci managed to loot Lordaeron when it was Scourged, implying greatly he is one of those Alteraci bandits)
Murloc Tidal Lord from The Dark Lady
This unit should have some skull staff and some grimoire like a Necromancer since it can cast Death Coil to match the “deathly” theme of this mini-boss
Deathlord from To Tame a Land
This unit should be changed to a unique Death Knight model since lorewise it is a Death Knight
Eldritch Deathlord from Old Hatreds
Same as #17, it should also be a Death Knight
Feranor Steeltoe from Blackrock and Roll
Please give him a single dwarf blacksmith model, would be really nice for mapmakers
The rest, like Theramore Elites, Mug’thol, Kor’gall, Krag’jin, Zul’rogg, Outland Arena bosses, special creeps, and others I forgot to mention or just not important to mention, should also have unique models
How about yours? I’m curious on how you want them to look like in Reforged
It might be overkill, but they’ve already made some unique models for minor only seen once characters. If they plan on making more this is a nice list.
We still miss two Reign of Chaos units. Ballista and Catapult… I hope they dont go the lazy route and give us glaive throwers and demolishers for RoC campaign…
Here’s something new: I hope Sylvanas’ Dark Minions are zombie-ish similar to Forsaken (no it’s not a WoW thing she literally called the released undead Forsaken in the last Sylvanas chapter)
Also, I hope Nightmare Cenarius’ treants are also… Nightmare Treants.
I also hope they have High and Blood Elf versions whereas not the paints are blue and red respectively
So, what? Where does it say the Forsaken have to be the same as in WoW?
Skeletons do well. I don’t mind the zombies though but they’ll look too sluggish and mindless.
I’d like to link to my posts here https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/inconsistencies-in-classic-wc3-that-you-want-to-see-fixed-in-reforged.320361/page-2#post-3387124
Basically, what units and heroes should get unique models, icons, soundsets and whatnot. Also, what units and heroes I’d like to see in Reforged sometime.
