This video was recorded back on October 13th, 2025, and I did let the computer or AI play on its own for 3 hours, 17 minutes. In this video I'm playtesting the Reign of Chaos Campaign, but now using the Warcraft: Total War - Classic 2nd Edition - which is an update of the Classic Edition, uploaded as its own stand-alone upload and mod - it adds every single new model rigged up to this point by Afmunso, formerly known as Seriidan on the Discord, Bantu Chieftain on TWC - the guy who created the new big map of the main mod, and who rigged 90 percent of the models of the modern mod, in the old mod 80% of the models were rigged by him - whereas I coded like 470 out of 500 models.
So coding models takes a lot of time, however, if the models are already coded in a different version of the same mod then it takes just a few hours to move all of them over, if they aren't coded that would be a different matter as more text-files are involved if the models need to be coded from scratch.
In the Classic 2nd Editon - known as the Model Overhaul Edition of the Warcraft: Total War - Classic mod - every single model yet rigged for the mod has been implemented, including the Drakkari Temple Guards that were missing in the Classic Edition, and all the new Human models of of the January 26th Human Model Overhaul Edition, every single undead unit from June 22nd have been ported as have all the rest of the Undead models of the Undead Model Overhaul- this of course includes never-before-seen brand-new undead units like the armored Death Knights, the Undead Trolls remade, the remade Orc Skeletons, Banshee's and so on in addition to the new undead of the Classic Edition - namely the new armored and unarmored skeleton horses, the Val'kyr, the Icebound Bonewtraiths, the Defilers of the Forsaken, the Dreadguard Phalanx, the Deathguards remade, and others - in this mod the old dreadguards and deathguards were also kept, so the new models have different names.
In addition to every new undead and human model of the now finished overhauls, we also have in addition to new Trolls, Vrykul and others of the Classic Edition, now also most of the planned remade Orc models - the Orc Spears replacing the Orc Spearmen and with an added armor upgrade, the Orc Archers, Orc Spearthrowers, Orc Warriors, Orc Necrolytes and the Orc Warlocks remade, the Korkron elite unit and bodyguard edited and improved, and the old HD Horde Grunt used as placeholder for the Orc Wolf Riders, known as the Orc Raiders previously - it's also used as a placeholder for the Dark Horde Drake Riders and the Blackrock Destroyer bodyguard.
The Orc Peons are outdated still and will be removed from the main mod in the future and won't get a new model, the Orc Raiders will get a new one eventually and the Blackrock Destroyers, Orc Berserkers and the Drake Riders will likely get something new.
In this video I'm playtesting the campaign in the early Reign of Chaos Campaign after adding every single model, of course replacing the older outdated WC3 Orcs, the old outdated fan-made Human models and the old outdated WC3 or fan-made edited Elder Scrolls Undead models.
Unlike in the main mod the units of Gilneas, Alterac, Dalaran and Kul'Tiras are still available as regionals, as are the Argent Dawn mercs/regionals and other older models if they never were replaced. I didn't bother to remove them.
Unlike in the release on the link below, I am playtesting an updated later version in this video.
