The World Of Warcraft Game is about Humans VS. Orcs, and although the World of Warcraft III has introduced some other races, the humanoids are the original characters of the game and have even been upgraded with  new Heroes, units and powerful abilities.

There are different units of humans, including

*peasant
*militia
*footmen
*riflemen
*knight
*priest
*sorceress
*spell breaker
*mortar team
*gryphon rider
*dragonhawk rider
*water elemental
*phoenix

You can find a list of unit stats here:

Then there are the heroes:

*Paladin
*Archmage
*Mountain King
*Blood Mage

And the different areas in a human town:

*town hall
*barracks
*arcane sanctum
*workshop
*Gryphon aviary
*summonable

To play humans, you must first start by creating a human town:

*Build a town hall-this is where you can announce the “Call To Arms” to get everyone back to the town if there is a battle

*Send your peasants to mine gold and chop wood and then when you’ve reached capacity, you can go on to build more farms.

*Build a lumber mill and start building barracks for future battles.

*Get a blacksmith so they can help you create weapons

*Build Towers for future battles

Playing the Game:

Humans can get magic powers,for example:

*Teleporting-You can send whole groups of troops at once in order to drop a full compliment of siege engines into an opponent’s town or rush your army back home to help defend your town.
*Clarity Potion-This potion will let your hero run away and then use clarity to return.  You can also keep your hero in the back away from combat and use clarity during combat.
*The Priest & Sorceress- These units are very important to the human race-use them along with your army to win battles.

Using the three Human Heroes can be a powerful strategy if you are skilled enough to do so.  Paladin can use Holy Light to heal other Heroes and increase the hero’s armor while Archmage can teleport the other heroes around.  The Mountain King can use his thunder clap that will stun anyone who is close by.

Humans have a great advantage in Warcraft III because they have several abilities other races do not possess, including:

*Slow-Humans can decrease the enemy’s offensive and defensive capabilities before an assault
*Inner Fire & Devotion Aura-Allows humans to improve their troops attack and defense capabilities even when outnumbered
*Better Defense Mode-Human footmen have a more powerful defense presence

Humans are also:

*Easy to manage & upgrade
*Can build towers which are a powerful defense
*Can use tanks which causes death to all enemy structures
*Can have multiple peasants working on a building at the same time which allows for quicker hero/tower rushes
*Human building armor and hit points can be upgraded

Humans do have various enemies, the Orcs, the Night Elves and the Undead.  You can:

*Kill Orcs by outmaneuvering, outsmarting, and outwitting their forces. Use defensive measures to counter their offensive abilities. Avoid fighting them one-on-one and turn the odds against them by stunning, morphing, and summoning units before attacking them and while defending against them.
*Kill Night Elves by taking advantage of the inexpensive footmen that can be used to outnumber Dryads, which lessens the effect of their Slow Poison ability. You might also consider using Riflemen, which have a much higher attack than Dyrads, to kill them from afar.
*Defeat the Undead ( use ghouls, abominations, and necromacers) byemploying high hit point knights and using “Inner Fire”, “Devotion Aura”, and “Healing”. Your Paladin’s Holy light is also helpful because it can heal your units or hurt them. Also bring in a few mortar teams in the back to bring some mega AoE hurt on those fools. Just be careful and try to keep your units alive and dont give the Undead your corpses at all costs!
