An alternative is to start a new game, and enter one of the following as

accepted, but the FMV is canceled. If you use the trigger by accident, you can
just re-select the character, and the video will play again from the beginning,
with your choice already made.
The missions in WC3 are divided into groups, usually of three or four
missions each. One mission in each group is designated as a "deciding
mission," the success or failure of which determines whether the player
will proceed among the winning path or the losing path in the mission tree. The
names in the table below represent the solar systems in which a particular
mission group takes place, with the corresponding number of the deciding
mission in that series.
