For whatever reason, this idea was taken out of the final version, however evidence of its existence can still be seen in the cutscene of a footman stealing an Orcish Catapult. If this unit was killed, the enemy could then capture your catapult.
This means that you would need a unit to move and fire the catapult.
At one point in development, Blizzard planed to have Catapults and Balistas manned. As a compromise, they included Elves, Dwarves, Trolls, Ogres, Goblins, and Gnomes as part of the two official races, Orcs and Humans. However, memory constrictions forced them to stay with two. Blizzard originally wanted to include more than two races with the game. Joke? Glitch? Coincidence? We will never know. You can type in "gilttering prizes" instead of the cheat "glittering prizes" and still have it work. No pixels were harmed during the making of this game. CreditsĪt the end of the credits section of the game there is a note: For example, "орцисч чордес" is definitely "orcish hordes". In the mission objectives screen, the text written in the book on the background is actually English with letters substituted with similar sounding (or, in some cases, not) Cyrillic ones. Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness appears in the book 1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die by General Editor Tony Mott. Game feature: In-game screenshot capture. The editor requires Windows 3.1 or greater, even though WarCraft II is a DOS-based game.

In an effort to counter this invasion the humans, elves and dwarves formed an alliance in the hope to avert the same fate the kingdom of Azeroth met. 
With the conquest of the kingdom of Azeroth in the first war, the orcs are now preparing for an invasion of Lordaeron and conquer the remaining human, dwarven and elvisch realms. WarCraft II: Tides of Darkness is a fantasy themed real-time strategy game and sequel to WarCraft: Orcs & Humans set on the world of Azeroth.
