Race-themed maps

Hey Yak, I was thinking how it would be cool to see race-themed maps. Obviously you wouldn't have to add four new ones (although Fel Pine would logically go to Orcs, should it be implemented. It better!!!) but should you decide to add further maps in the future...something to think about?

For UD, maybe a Trisfal Glades concept? Or wherever they originated from. WOW players may need to correct me.
Dalaran for Elves would be cool, an entire fight in a city!
Orcs (of course) Fel Pine Grove.
Creeps...maybe just modify Storm or claim it as such?

Also, some race-themed items would put a new spin on the game. I think I remember seeing some past thoughts about this...

This is kind of already the case. Most of them have two race themes depending on the battle.

Stormwail: Elf v. Creep
Gloomreap: Undead v. Fel Horde
Candle: Human/Elf v. Undead
Kedge: Orc v. Human

The last map is pretty certain to be Elf v. Undead

Eota lore /= War3 Lore.

Tirisfal* Glades doesn't exist. Dalaran doesn't exist.

Btw, there is a city map for Eota, its called Exodus :p

Aside from that, I hope the new map in d is pwn and that Kedge gets fixed.

Huh? What is that suppose to mean they don't exist? If your referring to the chemistry between the two, WOW lore was created out of w3 lore. And EotA is just a map in w3. Your post doesn't make any sense.

Nothing wrong with 2 city maps, and Exodus isn't official EotA imo.

Is there gonna be a new map in d? I haven't heard that...Fel Pine maybe?

...I hope Gloom get fixed as well. Yak can scratch Candle if wants, I hate that map. Kedges is pretty cool.

Exodus is pretty official and pretty EotA. It's what started our glorious AoS.

Warcraft 3 and World of Warcraft are part of the same fictional lore universe. EotA, while having many creatures in common, is not at all a part of the same lore. EotA does not take place on Azeroth.

Exodus is definitely an official EotA, although most versions i see played aren't officially released by me (my last one was 1.2b or something)

Based on what I've seen... Warcraft III and World of Warcraft are like Highlander 2 and Highlander 3.

What Yak said, they DO NOT share the same Lore, I've said this several times >_<

Yes Yak said new map in D (maybe a stormwail replacement :P)

Gloom should be scrapped IMO but what can you do.

Like everyone said, Exodus is for sure an official Eota map.

I think it was in-game. But you did say new map, new hero for D.

Not c2.

I'm pretty sure the only thing i've said is that i want to redo kedge so that it's hopefuly more popular and more balanced, and that it'll get a new themed hero (or heroes) to go with that map. This is probably related to the murloc hero thread.

I have proof! There's an empty water area between Gloomreap and Candleburg.

I'm not saying there won't be a fifth map, just not for d.
