- Fixed a bug involving burrowed units - if a burrowed lurker was attacked by air, it would stop acquiring other targets. Changed so that non-AI lurkers won't unburrow when attacked by air, which is a better idea all around.

- Fixed a bug where a drone could skate across terrain to an arbitrary destination after failing to build an extractor.

While nothing major, it still fixes problems, so I suppose it's worth it. Thanks to All2cuteJ for the heads up!

Remember the board game? Interested in playing it with superior Warcraft 3 Graphics? Well, forget about Azeroth, its time to take over Europe.

Got a map? We'd love to hear from you, so be sure to send it in. For other great scenerios, check out the archive.

Major Fixes:
- Fixed a bug where tomes could be used multiple times.
- Removed magic damage resistance from the Defend ability

For a list of balance changes, check the thread. I'd to thank Darkness, scottrick49 and Joe Lyga for the news.

A major exploit has been discovered that has turned the game into a hero arena and severely crippling the game. It's known on battle.net as the tome bug. Let's say there is a tome of agility, strength, or intelligence, or hp laying on the ground. Take a hero, hold shift, and right click constantly on the tome (adding waypoints to the tome). The hero will use the tome as many times as you have right clicked, giving the hero insane stats.

Discuss it here. Kudos to Joe Lyga for the news.

Do you agree to the drastic changes made in Frozen Throne Beta V304?
Totally!	262	32%
Mostly	323	39%
Not Really	83	10%
Daboo?	157	19%
TOTAL	825	100 %	..

It is good to see that people in general, agree with the changes made. Considering the fact that hey completely changes the way people play Warcraft 3, that is reassuring. For those who're not beta testers out there, keep in mind that when you get the expansion, everything will change. One could argue its a different game with the same graphics, well maybe not that far!

• Heroes no longer gain experience from creeping once they're over level 5.
• No Upkeep is now from 0-50 food, Low Upkeep is now from 51-80 food, and
• High Upkeep is now from 81-100 food. This change was made to compensate for the need to have large amounts of lumber-gathering peons.
• Units can never move at a speed slower than 150 (roughly 60% the speed of a Footman).

Be sure to read the whole list.

Be sure to check it out.

If you want to have your maps included in the final game, be sure to send them in! If you win, you'll get a bunch of other goodies too! This is a must for any map maker. Good luck to all those who plan on entering!

It's an interesting read, be sure to discuss it in our forums.

• Archers May Gain 20hp and lose 2 Damage
• Huntresses may switch to Heavy Armor
• Ethereal Units will take 166% Damage from Magical attacks, down from 200%
• Mana Siphon and Flamestrike will be reworked.
• Reveal Ability from Arcane Towers will Require Magic Sentry First

Blizzard Entertainment is proud to announce that The Lost Vikings for Game Boy® Advance has begun shipping to stores. This first game in Blizzard’s Classic Arcade series features the misadventure of three extremely lost -- but surprisingly complementary -- Vikings who must be guided back home. Read the full announcement here.

Look for it to be on sale soon!

Thankfully, this is no longer the case. AgreeOne has went through the trouble of writing a complete translation! And we have some new information.

• Even if Microsoft buys Blizzard, they assure as the Ghost will not be Xbox only.
• Ghost is scheduled for release at the end of this year.
• Kerrigan will not appear in ghost, but Mengsk will.

Be sure to give it a read. Comment about it in our Starcraft: Ghost forum.

You'll notice that among the playable races...elves are not among them. I am outraged at this, being a fellow elf player, but let's hope they are a playable race at one point in time...at any rate, check out the site, it's definately worth your while.

Thanks to cirE for giving me the heads up while my cable was down. =P

2003-MAR-24

PLEASE NOTE: We have made the Ctrl/Subgroup order functionality an optional
feature that is disabled by default. You can re-enable this functionality
by going to the "Options --> Gameplay" screen from the main Menu and check-
ing the "Subgroup Order modifier key" box.

MAJOR FIXES

- Naga Sea Witch movement type is no longer amphibious.
- Naga Sea witch now follows the proper "Hero" purchasing rules.
- Added a new map and fixed several others that were not properly
updated in previous patches.

MAP CHANGES

- (6)RiceFields: Added this new map which will initially be enabled for
2vs2 games. This map utilizes a new Random Creep concept where the creeps
that make up each camp are generated randomly each time the map is played.
- (6)Whirlwinds: Removed all Taverns. Replaced two Goblin Merchants
with Mercenary Camps.
- (6)StranglethornVale: Starting gold mines are reduced. Mercenary Camps
are now gold mines with strong creep camps. Neutral buildings altered in
the middle of the map. **NOTE: This map was unchanged in previous versions
regardless of notes indicating otherwise. **

In fact, there was so many core alterations that the entire playstyle is different. What do you think of these changes? Vote today

Judging by the Beta Information, or first hand experience, which new hero in the Beta do you consider most useful?
Blood Mage	143	15%
Shadow Hunter	156	16%
Crypt Lord	151	15%
Warden	264	27%
Dark Ranger	129	13%
Daboo?	139	14%
TOTAL	982	100 %

Well, it looks like out of every choice, we have a pretty clear winner. The Warden takes first place, for her speed, and ability to support the Night Elf race with area of affect damage that they so lacked.

Kudos to 2Xtreme21 and Darkness for the news. Remember, the latest of the new beta can be found in our forums.

• Humans can get Arcane Towers, which, while deal low damage (11-12), has the ability to drain enemy mana by around 15 points per hit. They also have the reveal ability.
• Undead get Nerubian Towers, which deal 11-12 damage, but slows the target and surrounding units with cold.
• There's now a new item, Keren's Dagger of Escape, which provides a hero with the level 1 Blink ability.

Kudos to Nightmyre and UofMSpoon2 for the news.

• Earth Panda
• Fire Breathing Panda
• Regenerate Health
• Tornado
• Gyrocopter Flak Cannons
• Swimming Naga
• Naga's Forked Lightning
• Arcane Tower
• Nerubian Towers
• The New Spirit of Vengeance

There way too many screenshots for me to link to here, but they start on Page 14 of our screenshot archive. Be sure to check it out for screenshots of the new towers building, stats of new skills, the other two panda aspects and much more!

In V2.30 of the scenario, AI Gladiators will make better use of items, there's better monster generation, as well as a number of new features. If you liked previous versions, be sure to download it.

Got a scenario? We'd love to see it. Other great sceneries can be found in the archive.

• Pandaren Brewnmaster and Naga Sea Witch Added in game!
• Players gain experience even when heroes are not around.
• Piercing does 200% damage vs Heavy Armor
• Tier 3 now have medium armor
• Heroes now have a special Hero Damage Type

There's like 5 pages of changes! Read them all as well the abilities of the two new heroes here.

For those lucky enough to be part of the test, be sure to tell us how you think the new changes will affect gameplay on our forums.

Sometime next week, Blizzard will officially announce the Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos Multiplayer Map Contest. We will post all the contest information and begin accepting submissions via our Web site at that time. Consider this an advance notice for those of you who want to get an early start on creating and polishing your best Warcraft III maps for the contest.

We’ll be looking for excellent multiplayer maps that can be used primarily for ladder play, and we will be accepting up to three maps per person. Please note that although trigger maps will be accepted, they will likely not be chosen unless they are extremely polished, fun, and bug free. Maps will be judged based on:

• Layout creativity – maps should be original and not look like other maps
• Creep balance and creativity – be creative with the number, placement, and difficulty of camps
• Game balance – maps needn’t be symmetrical, but all start spots must be fair
• Art – we’re looking for artistic texture usage, doodad placement, fog and weather usage, etc.

We cannot accept any map submissions until the contest has started, nor can we reply to any emails asking for further details. Please stay tuned to the Blizzard.com Web site to find out when the contest will officially go live. All the additional information that you’ll need about the contest and how to submit maps will become available then.

Best of luck to all those who enter! And be sure to post your maps on our forums if you'd like to share. We'd appreciate it!

Blizzard’s Battle.net and Blizzard.com Web sites have been experiencing intermittent connectivity problems due to outside factors. We are aware of the problem and are working hard to ensure that our Web site performs well for everyone. We apologize for any inconvenience.

• Blizzard plans to nerf the Town Portal Scroll, so that players must be much more careful when they venture out of their base.
• In addition, if a player kills a unit in a area where he does not have a Hero nearby, the experience will now be distributed equally to all his heroes.

What these two changes will do in make Warcraft 3 much more strategic as Starcraft was. It'll encourage players to split up their forces and harass, as well as scout more often.

Very interesting, the heroes, from Left to Right are the Naga Sea Witch, Magnataur and Tuskarr Nomad, though this is unconfirmed. Thanks to Mystical for updating us on this. Our apologies for not giving credit to the proper parties in the first place due to misinformation.

Do you have access to the Frozen Throne Beta?

Huh?	44	4%
TOTAL	1085	100

Well, about a quarter of our viewers are able to play the beta. This isn't half bad, considering that the Warcraft 3 Beta was only played about about 10% of our viewers a year ago.  With three quaters of you beta-less, we'll be sure to keep you updated in our Frozen Throne Coverage.

To answer the question that is most often asked about the trailer: we have not determined the final system specs, but the game will certainly run fine with an 800MHz CPU and a GeForce2.

It's got quite a bit of new information, and is definately worth reading.

MAJOR ISSUES

- Fixed an issue with spirit walkers dying in ethereal form.
- Corrected Sleep duration.

Not much, but it's significant.

Beginning March 26th, Blizzard will celebrate the ten-year anniversary of The Lost Vikings for the Super Nintendo. On that day, we'll reach deep into our vaults to bring everyone's favorite directionally-challenged Norsemen over to the Game Boy® Advance. In The Lost Vikings, players must guide Erik the Swift, Baelog the Fierce, and Olaf the Stout through deviously designed puzzles, traps and obstacles in their quest to get back home.

And big thanks to MagnaMothy88 for the heads up. ^__^

The new Mercenary Hero Shops not only sell the neutral heros, but also allow you to revive your slain heros instantly. Doing this costs more than reviving from your alter, but its well worth the trade. Many players will place a "peon" at a Mercenary Hero Shop so they can instantly get their Heros back in the action if they are slain. Be careful of this nasty tactic on maps like Ice Flow and Hail Stone where the Hero Shops are extremely close to everyone's start location. Your opponent may rush you and send a peon to the shop. As soon as his hero falls, he revives it instantly and continues to devastate your economy!

Interesting? Be sure to read it.

When we improved the magic-immunity system to add in spells that affected magic immune units, we created three types of spells: physical, magical, and universal.

Physical spells cannot be dispelled, affect magic immune units and normal units, and do not affect ethereal units.

Magical spells can be dispelled by normal dispels, do not affect magic-immune units, and affect ethereal units and normal units.

Universal spells can work against anything, and cannot be dispelled. They include ultimates and healing spells.

For more information on examples of spells, be sure to read this post.
