Warcraft II was the best of all time
Warcraft III was borng, you could control something like 30 or 35 people (including peasents) at best the AI was NEVER balanced and always seemed to be able to rush you over and over and over again while your soldiers were still in training.
Night Elves SUCKED, because if they didn't have their heroes with them they got slaughtered.
Humans sucked because even if they did have their heroes they took so bloody long for a human player to train them that by time they were free the AI would have rushed you at least five timse.
Orcs SUCK because their heroes might as well not be there cause they aren't the greatest fighters in the world.
The UNDEAD suck because their basic units are not good fighters at all, though at least they have the advantage of picking up your guys festering corpses and turning them into fresh troops.
Get the gist of the game so far?
