I'm in the very early stages of creating a fantasy mod for sc2.
It's basically gonna be the same game, I'm just changing all the models of the 3 races, maybe switch a few numbers or abilities here and there.
Protoss is gonna become a Chaos/Undead type army. Not sure about Terran yet, propably some kind of human/dwarven army.
My idea for the Zerg however, is what this thread is for. I want to turn them into a forest army, including tree men, wood elves, dryads, centaurs, bears, foxes, fairies and what not.
The creep needs to be replaced with leaves/forest ground, if that's possible. Overlords => clouds (rain instead of creep poop).
Tumor-pooping queens turn into seed-planting tree men.
Other ideas:
Zergling => Wolf or Boar;
Hydra => Wood Elf Ranger;
Ultra => Giant Bear;
Muta => Eagle-Riding Wood Elf Archer;
Larva => Wisp;
Drone => Fairy or Gnome
I am planning to wait for the SC2 Model Editor to come out (I understand it's supposed to come out with HotS?) so the lack of existing models shouldn't be a limiting factor. I'm not good at 3D Modeling yet but I am in no hurry, I know this might take me several years ;)
What I need from you guys is more ideas for this army and/or ideas for existing models that could act as placeholders for now.
Also, if anyone could tell me if the idea with the forest ground instead of creep is realistic and/or how to implement it, that would be great.
Thanks!
There are tons of already available models. Take them from WoW! And for things not there, i'm sure their just lying around somewhere here. If you really worked switching those models, you can get a good two weeks to finish this.

Basicly game that uses wow models in the mod.
