Warcraft III: Frozen Throne Playthrough - Curse of the Blood 5 -Gates of the Abyss

0:00 Intro & Cutscenes So, that's why Illidan wanted to destroy Northrend and Burning Legion found out that Lich King betraying demons by helping (through Arthas) Night Elves defeat Legion. You should not discard Lich King like that, my dear Tichondrius! (Yes, i'm referencing to last Undead mission from "Reign of Chaos") 3:43 Mission Start! Ok, my mission is to seal those four Portals, before making an assault toward Black Citadel. Scale of enemy resistance caught me offguard - it took 4-5 tried to seal that gate. I can't count on elven troops (beside of Priests - they're always useful) for sealing operations. Myrmidons & Couatls are must here, they're better. 6:36 First Gate Sealed It looks like "The Arkham Horror" board (not card version) game, where you close a gate, then monsters with the same symbol as a gate dies. 10:40 Sidequest & Oh,crap There is chance of getting potential ally, but at the same time Fel Orcs had discovered a base and they will attack. From Grunts & Wolf Riders, ending with Red Dragons (i wonder where they got from - they either have old batch, carried from "Tides of Darkness" or they have dragons from Deathwing, but should be Black Dragonflight, not Red one). Either way, the Orange base is doable with Heroes alone (& Phoenix). 15:45 Sidequest completed We got Akama's whos Draenei will attack Green base (and vice versa). Thankfully Orcs bases destruction is optional, we will focus on Portals. 28:20 Second Gate sealing It takes a two attempts to do this, because as usual i underestimated, how many (and powerful Demons) came through. As you see, i'm building a LOT of turrets wherever i can. 37:20 Second Gate Sealed. 54:48 Third Gate sealing Looking at enemies power, i was supposed to close that one as a last. Once again, it took two attempts to do this. 1:04:45 Third Gate sealed. 1:16:50 Fourth Gate sealing It went much smoother than the previous one. 1:20:05 Outro & Mission ResultsGood, no way that our Pit Lord can call reinforcements.
