When Creeps Attack
 * Mysterious Monoliths have begun to appear deep in the forests of Ashenvale, attracting the creatures who inhabit the land and transforming them into something sinister...

Monoliths

 * Objectives
 * Find and destroy all Monoliths
 * Scouts report that a Monolith has been sighted on the forest.
 * Description
 * Scouts have sighted mysterious Monoliths in the forest. These Monoliths attract the creatures that inhabit these lands, making them more intelligent and more hostile. You must find and destroy these Monoliths before the creatures become powerful enough to destroy you.

Monolith Shards

 * Objectives
 * Find, disable, and grab as many Monolith Shards as possible.
 * Monolith Shards can be disabled and picked up, temporarily disrupting Monolithic energies.
 * Description
 * Monolith Shards collect and distribute energy from the Monoliths. Disable the shards by attacking them, then pick them up and destroy (use) them to temporarily disrupt the Monolith energy.  Monolith energy disruption confuses Monolithic Creeps and they may begin to attack each other.  You may also find disabled shards in the forest.

Hints

 * Shard disruption can create serious havoc in the Monolithic Creep forces. Find and grab as many shards as possible!

The battle
This event probably happened after the death of Archimonde, because the mentioned forces were fighting on the same team against the forest creatures. In the scenario the player had to fight against a random team of creeps (dark trolls, satyrs, furbolgs, forest trolls, spiders, wolves or skinks) each type having its own units and even a hero, the goal being to destroy the Monolith and freeng the creeps from its evil influence.

Playable creeps
Entering the code "-creepmeout" allow the player to play as the Monolith monsters. The player loses all his buildings, they are replaced by a Monolith. The Monolith can train monster workers. A player can create simultaneously all kinds of monster buildings, not only those of a single monster race. However, he can only have one hero.
