Splitting the Races

Something i've been thinking alot about is splitting the current races into these new ones and making each fully playable. Thinking of a storyline which would cause this.

-Human (Balanced, Warfare)
-Blood Elf (Magic, Traditional)
-Dwarf / Gnome (Tech, Seige)
-Orc / Centuar (Strength, Shamanistic, Traditional)
-Troll / Tuaren (Strength, Voodoo/Druid)
-Forsaken (Altered Form of Undead)
-Nerubian / Worgen / Vampire (Undecided)
-Night Elf (Undecided)
-Naga / Murloc (undecided)
-Goblin (Merchant, Explosive)
-Draenei (Magic, Curroption)
-Terran (Fully-Hero Race)

One of the main goals is to try and have less micro, and more strategy into the game. I started writing out a techtree switch.

Human
Footman - Same
Rifleman - ??Crossbowmen
Knight - Same
Sorceress - ??Rogue
Priest - ??Monk
Spell Breaker - ??Bard
Motar - Cannon
Siege Engine - Military Transport
Gryphon - Same
Dragonhawk - ??
New - Officer

Priest (Heal removed, replaced with ??)

-Demolisher
-Raider
-Shaman

Forsaken

Draenei Huge Lack of Models on this part, if to be like new-wow version.

Terran
-Hero Only Race, Start with one hero and purchase more at COmmand Center/ upgrade current ones with special buildings


Just want ideas to help this along, I know this is a huge, and probaly hopeless project, and is very unrefined at the moment. The races would be implemented one at a time anyway so I want to try and plan ahead.

One of the greatest problems of this kind of project is the lack of artwork and models available.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before
  • The Helper The Helper:
    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    If you are new to the site please check out the Recipe and Food Forum https://www.thehelper.net/forums/recipes-and-food.220/
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences

    I think I need to split the Sci/Tech news forum into 2 one for Science and one for Tech but I am hating all the moving of posts I would have to do
