You can Google up box art and screenshots from this game. Warcraft 2000 was even sold commercially in Russia (of course this was done without any consent or knowledge on the part of Blizzard). Another new feature is that there are different terrain elevations, simulated by changing the brightness of the terrain tiles. I think the only terrain type that is used in this game is the swamp terrain from BtDP. They also added nuclear weapons and aliens, removed any unit limits, and magic worked differently.

(I must add that I am not the first person to notice the Orc files. Orcs.nds from mid 1999 already has the 17th and 18th century contents that we know from Cossacks. I suspect, they used Warcraft 2 sprites and names for testing their engine back in 1998, before implementing all the historical units that the final game uses. As we can see it's a 1:1 Warcraft 2 ripoff.
