If you are fine with playing single-player or LAN only (no ), there ways to obtain the latest pre- Reforged version (1.31.1), basically from a backup some user made. It also has much higher system requirements. So what is the problem? Well, for starts, Reforged is a ~27GB installation вЂ“ more than ten times the size of the classic games. If you link your RoC/TFT CD keys to your account, you will be offered Reforged at no cost, except it will be locked to the classic graphics, not the remastered ones (you do get the upgraded cinematics).

Moreover, Reforged (at patch level 1.32.10 at the time of this writing) is the only version you can play on with. Versions beyond that were only ever offered digitally, through the Blizzard launcher, and are no longer available on вЂ“ all you can get is Warcraft III: Reforged. At minimum, I recommend the latest stand-alone patch, 1.27b. It is advised to upgrade the games, post-install, beyond 1.21b, since it eliminates the CD check. The discs include the initial versions ( Reign of ChaosВ v1.00 and The Frozen Throne v1.07) and are are SecuROM protected, so some of the more advanced cloning tools may be required to make a 1:1 backup copy.

Both CD keys are on the jewel case, and you may want to copy them somewhere safe, since they are required to install the games (even if you never play online). The front insert says вЂњWarcraft Battle ChestвЂќ and has Reign of Chaos artwork, the rear insert has the The Frozen ThroneВ artwork. Note:The disks are compatible with Windows and Macintosh, but I was only able to test the Windows versions.Д®ach game comes on its own CD, but instead of individual jewel cases, Blizzard opted for a single 2-CD case. Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne (Expansion Pack)ДЄlthough technically, this is just a single game + expansion, and out of the box, you need Reign of Chaos installed to play The Frozen Throne, the expansion does provide full-length campaigns, as well as some new features, so itвЂ™s not far-fetched to view it as a 2-game series.Like with the StarCraft Battle Chest, some copies came in a vertical box with a front flap, but these are far rarer. The box is of the same small format Blizzard used for most of its later вЂњBattle ChestsвЂќ вЂ“ those of StarCraft, World of Warcraft and Diablo / Diablo II. The collection is titled Warcraft Battle Chest, which is ambiguous with the earlier 1996 collection for Warcraft and Warcraft II. Format: вЂњSmall boxвЂќ, double size, 26.5 вЁ‰ 19 вЁ‰ 3 centimetres (other formats exist).
