Scyth-Master · 08-22-2008, 11:16 PM

As do I. That's really the only rule I do like.

PureOwnage · 08-22-2008, 11:24 PM

Yeah, but...
Is this a good idea or not?

Scyth-Master · 08-22-2008, 11:37 PM

The idea is to make a new warchasers map correct?

Warchasers?
Just make a dungeon that is fully playable including all the requirements and rules.

This seems fun, but one question: Can you only have a hero through the whole map, or can you have units with him too? And can you gain units along the way?

Yeah, go ahead. You think I should put in requirements:
Must Have Rescuable Units?

It's not necessary to have it as a requirement. I just thought, some people may find it boring to just play with a Hero through a whole map, and it could be fun with some additional units when fighting. But at the boss battle I think the Hero should be alone against the boss, or that depends on if the boss have units that helps him too :P

LightBloOD · 08-23-2008, 01:36 PM

Think it over!
Its not necessary to have units or even rescueable units, you can use only a simple hero, and there can be quests, or something, when NPCs join your fight:)

and in addition: i think the dungeon might be much more interesting if its like an RPG dungeon (but alone) than something like warchasers. There should be an entrance with some vendor and questgiver NPCs, and many ways to go, some bosses, special items, even sets!
Id be happy if this contest will be hosted :))
