What is this?
Battlecries is a mod that changes the sound of some abilities. This means that the voices can be heard when someone else casts them.
This all started when I noticed how I hated the fact that I never hear the voices of my allies/enemies other than the few grunts. I gave most heroes that had usable voices battlecries. While this is in development, I'll try to add more, when more voices get released.

The voices are overlapping eachother, what do I do?
You could turn off Unit Reactions in the Options menu. That's one avaiable option. The other, If you really like the voices, is going to my other Mod, Less Talking (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?t=55803), and use that.
What it does is make the voice commands of your heroes less likely to occur. This will reduce the overlapping problem some have.

Hon Mod version
Thank you Robbenvieh (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/member.php?u=399543) for making a .honmod version and .honmod icon for my mod. You're awesome.

This actually looks really useful. I'm going to go download this now and try it out. Is it possible to get a "I bring PANDAMONIUM!" from Warcraft 3 when Panda ults.

Only issue I have is that it's possible for the move command speech to occur simultaneously with the battlecry. Other than that, it's been very nice.

True, I suggest playing without unit reactions. Edit: I've made a mod which can remedy your problem, Less Talking (http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showthread.php?t=55803).

About that, I'll see what I can do for the next update.

any chance for an update to the new interface?

Jaycoob

this mod still works in the new interface, it is already said above "In particular, any mods affecting the menu screens will likely cause a multitude of problems. Cosmetic mods such as custom sounds packs or altered textures should not have any issues. As well, any in-game mods such as custom interfaces should not be problematic unless they alter the menu screens in some form."

Requests are always welcome, but I kinda made this to fill in the gaps you know. Most of these sounds are fine when the ability is spammed, some sentences get annoying quickly and are only on ultimates. I will update this soon but it won't be a big update, just a few extras for the new voices and old ones such as Glacius.

Here's the version fixed for HoN 2.0.

However, someone should update it to include all the new heroes - it'd be fairly easy to do but time-consuming...
