Battle for Erathor

Use several spells and an arsenal of items and powerups, not to mention runes, to knock your foes into the flaming pit of death, located in the center of the map. You have a choice of many different powerups to increase your hero's health, knockback distance, knockback resistance, speed, along with items providing various changes to your already-existing spells. Has an 'anti-snowball effect' system, where players get lots of gold over time, but kills take away 5 gold from the killer. Battle on!

Pirate Tag

Yarr matey, land huggers ahead! Pirate Tag is a 10 player tag map, but not an ordinary one, in this you control your unit with the IJKL keys!

In Pirate Tag the rules are simple, there are basicly 2 teams, pirates and land huggers.

The goal for the Pirates is that they must catch the land huggers, once they catch one the land hugger gets turned into a pirate aswell. That goes on untill the last land hugger is caught. Last caught land hugger wins the round, gains a point (point system is broken in 1.3) and is chosen as next rounds first pirate. That cycle repeats untill someone gets the required amount of points to win the game (again, point system is broken which may affect the game to never end!).

The Boat Race

Alright, here it is..

The Boat Race! Beta

Concept: The Boat Race is a race map, where you have to steer (slide) your boat, avoiding to run into shards, icebergs, hurricanes, mealstorms and the deep water. Entering hurricanes will make you sail slower and damage your boat slowly. Mealstorms will first suck your boat into them, and then tossing them away to certain death. Race up to 5 other players.

Other Information:
-The Triggers are in pure GUI
-No AI is added
-One game lasts for around 2-4 minutes

Any suggestions or feedbacks would be greatly appreciated

Upgrade Wars

Get upgrades to improve you’re team’s spawn’s! Each upgrade counters others, attack counters HP, ect. Team 1 spawns footmen, team 2 spawns ghouls. Each ghoul\footmen has 1 attack and 1 health Point. Less often, crypt fiends\knights spawn, and least often, tanks\meat wagons spawn. Each player receives a random hero, to help them defeat enemies and earn gold for upgrades!
NOTE: If there is so many spawns it is causing lag, player 1 can type -clear and all the units will die, causing lag to go away. You can also get mercenaries, but they aren’t any good unless they have upgrades, and by then the spawns are so good, they are mainly for creeping, but can be VERY useful as spawns too.

Barrelball

This map plays similar to basketball, fused with dodgeball you have to throw the barrel into a crater*hoop* to score, and must hit 10 25 or 50 to win. The points needed to win are decided by player 1 who should be red, this map was made in my freetime after I saw this thread. You can punch people to knock them out of the game temporarily, as well as steal the barrel from them or a team mate, and of course lastly you can throw the barrel.

NearbyHermit:

Legacy of Rep

The story of 4 THW membs who found that THW was infected by some sort of virus.They now must venture in the twisted THW website and destroy the virus house.There are all sorts of traps from glaive to walking glaives and fire traps and spining blademasters.The mini-game signature is the slow missiles following the players.
Charachters-
Nearby Hermit-Your friendly NH here to destroy any virus that stands in its way.Has Hermit Walk and Cybernetic Rage.
Wolve Rabid-the most renounced shaman in hive is here to correct the virus problem.Wolve is a ranged characther and has the Ignore ability and delete tress wich deletes trees and transforms them into healing wards.
Ralle-the chieftain is here to secure his beloved website.Having the bear form ability he is more powerfull in stats than the others.
Rui-Rui is always on the lookout for spammers and viruses and he ventures with us having the multi-Rui ability wich creates 10 illusions of himself,and the Mass teleport ability wich allows him to reach the others in no time.
The characthers were made from the hives membs(their avatars and names)
The missiles have a very beautifull effect,and the traps keep the game more fun.Altough hard on 1 player the map is easy in 4.Please notice that ive not used any form of imported files ,and that is very good by my opinion.

I vote for Raging because his map is crazy fun fun fun.

After a quick game with randomers on b.net, everyone loved it.

ragingspeedhorn · 07-17-2007, 06:15 PM

Yeah that was heaps of fun, a really good crowd we got there who quickly got the hang of things.

Anyways to everyone, 1.4b has been released without the serious bugs of 1.3! Try that instead, get it from the map section!

How could I not vote for you ragingspeedhorn you kick booty.

Kixer · 07-18-2007, 03:20 PM

Ok heres where my votes go, in order...

1. Pirate Tag - It looks great, is easy/learn to play and is a lot of fun... aka is exactly what a mini-game should be...
2. The Escape Plan - A nice idea and well done, requires some thinking and is fairly quick.
3. Upgrade Wars - Quite fun and has a lot of potential, unfortunately its not very well done (revealing players >.<)

On another note, Battle for Erathor would have got my vote if it had not been protected...
