The noble paladin has stepped into the fiery pits of Hell, only to find evil professing wicked temptation. As he battles this fiend, he hopes to maintain enough self-control and rational thought in order to slay the demon that torments him.

The rules of the contest were to keep it under 2 minutes and that the cinematic has to be battle ONLY (->no story!).
KI extra gave you the link, maybe you should read the rules before you comment on the map. :wink:
Errr... what was that? A skeleton and undestractable paladin. They beam and boom a little around and in the end... well, suddenly war3 returned to the menu, I remember that the skeleton was fallen down about the half way to ground...
Hey, the quest of the contest was not to make 2 minutes, but a good cinematic, I think. The shaking camera kills nerves after a while.
I recommend to put some moments of silence without much movement into it - that will make the action scenes work much more intensively. And a story would be nice, too. Just follow more the principe "quality is better than quantity". That also works on action cinematics! :wink:
Ok, I fixed how it ended directly after 119 seconds. Also reduced the fire doodad count. Fixed some other things as well.
Problem I see is there's alot fire doodad on screen all at once, causing (weak) computer to lag. Then later on, movie end before they end. For me it ended where skeleton and paladin facing eachother in front of big statue, and they talking - at same time it show up "Victory, Continue / Quit Campaign." So I don't know what happen to skeleton or paladin. Maybe put "victory" condition somewhere else like near the end for example.. like paladin dies or skeleton dies pass certain time?

Hope your contest judge has good computer.
This is my first map that I have fully completed. Also first time using cinematic triggers. This was made for the cinematic contest that is required to be a 2 minute 1v1 battle. Here's the link:
