Map DevelopmentTalk about your developing projects. Release beta tests and get useful feedback before the final release. Maps should be attached to your post.
=====BASIC OUTLINE=====(This is an outline not the storyline)
You are a hero(obviously) trying to gain levels and accuire items so that you can defeat the undead and light armies. their are 3 main cities, each city has different shops and quests. the higher level city you're in the higher level quests and items it has in it. EXAMPLE: you are in the lvl 1 base and can only buy potions and light armor and weapons, if you're in the lvl 3 base you can buy heavy armor and weapons. the undead army is the weaker army, so basicaly you destroy them first due to restrictions on the gates. after you defeat both armies you head north to the kings castle. thats when you find out that the king is being kept a hostage to the undead ruler hel. so you must fight your way to the end of the castle and destroy hel. after the king has been saved the game is pretty much over.

Gameplay
~Gameplay~
-You can choose one hero, once you have chosen your hero you can start doing quests, now there are only 14 quests so far but there will be MANY more in the future, anyway you have 5 spells, 4 of which are normal spells and 1 is your Ulti, you have a bonus spell that you can accuire at lvl 100, it is an attribue spell, now you're probobly thinking to yourself "So i cannot get any attribute bonuses until im lvl 100!" and my answe id "NO", there will be a atribute system coming eventualy, but once you rech lvl 100, that system will stop and you will have the ability.
-Now another thing you can accuire are classes, there are currently 2 classes, Offesive, and Defensive, There will be more in the future, i was aiming for about 5 or 6, You may choose a class when you are at lvl 10, Classes lvl up automaticaly so you do not have to waist skill points.
-There is also a couple of game commands such as -save/-load/-out/-in/-clear/-kick/-repick, now each of the commands a pretty self explanitory but if you want to know hwta the do just simply check the quest menu.
-Now you start off in a small town as you will see there are more towns around the map so you do not have to run all the way back just to heal you hero, or buy an item, BUT each town has somthing special to it, like higher lvl items, or better quests etc. but you must be a Req. lvl to enter the town, i made it this way so that the game is a bit challanging, now dont think that you have to lvl your hero for a a couple of hours to get to the second base because there are plenty of towns to travel to, there are the 3 main(Which you need to be Req. lvls) and then there is the big main city where the king of Lordaeron is, now you do not need to be a Req. lvl to enter this town but you will not be able to get high lvl quests until you are a higher lvl, now you can buy ANY item from te main city that is sold in shops around the map. The max lvl is 200 so expect there to be tough creeps and crazy bossfights.
-Now the further you play the more the storyline will make sense, so when you get towards the end you will know what has exactaly happend.
-There are 2 differnt things replacing lumber and food, Gems replaced lumber, they are the main items that you will need to buy tough items, and then there are crystals that replaced food, now crystals are used to make very high lvl items and unlock a few things, so overall Crystals will be the most difficult to retrieve, but do not think that it is impossible.
-So there are 2 main enemy here, we have the Undead Army(Towards the center of the map) and we have the Light Army(Towards the bottom right of the map), so you're probobly wondering which one is harder and i will say it right now the Undead Army is a bit weaker, now once you have destroyed both armies you will be able to fight the leader named Hel, not Hel is Very powerful so you will not be able to kill her on a 1v1, however once you have defeated her the game will not be over, you will be able to recieve special quests worth ALOT of materials, and unlock special items.
-NOTE: Save/Load code does not save progress so if you deafeated both armies and then save and then restarted the map, you would have to do it over again. Now once you have completed the game if you contact me and send me proof that you have completed it, i mean solid proof like a screenshot or a video, and i see that it is real proof then you can send me your load code with your name and i will give you a special item that onlt i can give you, i will not steal your hero becuase what would i want it for. Now that about sums it all up.
Heroes
Sorceress
Azh'anda lived in Winterspring and always was interested in the forbidden - magic. Once she went on the highborne ruins, and not only found some artifacts, but also anceint magics. She kept her secret for a few years, slowly becoming more and more powerful. When once a priestess of the moon who came in the village saw her, she almost killed her. No one has noticed that because magic her hair became white - sign of the transformation night elves suffer if the become mages. She was exiled from her village, and for years she, a night elves sorceress explored the ruins of Kalimdor, unlocking the ancient secrets.
"He would be a monk, defending its humble faith, apparently. However, inside the depths of his monastery, he would torture kidnapped followers. Once discovered, he was condemned to be buried alive, to pay for his crimes. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to kill him. Before his last breath, Epheron, the god of Earth made him an offering. In exchange for his beating heart and breathing lungs, he would become immortal. He became one with the earth that was around him, and years later, he has risen from the grounds, but now his body is possesed by Epheron's very essence, fighting for the cause of nature.
Braegan,was a wildhammer dwarf boy, living in a village.
Unlike his brethren he always thought about their titan heritage, and his talants in archeology, were not understood by his kind and he was barely tolerated. Once when emisaries of the Ironforge dwarves came, they noticed a strong boy who was exploring their machines. They understood who they found, and asked permission to take him in Ironforge. Soon, Braegan has prooved his talants and became one of the greatest students of the Explorers Guild ever. He went in the expedition in Northrend with Muradin Bronzebeard, and was never heard from again. Everyone though he died in the cold wastelands, but now he returned, much stronger and much more powerful and skilled.
Kandar was an assasin, until he got a heavy injury. One day elements came to him in a dream and taught him the way of a shaman. His injuries healed, and he became a shaman, but he didnt like being a shaman. Elements were plain and boring for him. One day the elements talled him about the endless amount of elements in the world. Thats how he learned about the Shadow element. It was dark and twisted, but so was his soul. Now Kandar was no assasin and no shaman. He was the Shadow Shaman.
Torelan was a conjurer of Stormwind. When it has fallen in the First War he and the other survivors had to fight for life to survive in its ruins. After the Second War, New Storwind was built, and he, after long years of fighting became a Battlemage. When the city was destroyed again he fleed on a small ship, in search of peace, and a place to call a home.
Kureana was a sentry of the Watchers in Barrow Dens prison. She lived, and was totally satisfied until Tyrande Whisperwind destroyed the prison to free Illidan. One of the surviving Watchers, she had stayed behind in the ruins of their home, while Maiev went to capture Illidan. Hardly surviving the attacks of the corrupted creatures and their demon masters she has learned the art of stealthing, to defeat the enemies with higher numbers. Some time ago, the remaining Watchers left the Barrow Dens. One night she left her friends to find herself a new destiny.
John Dastar was a regular footman in the armies of Stromgard. When it has fallen, he became a leader of a mercenary camp, and became a swordsman, using his skills and strenght. After the third War, he was again alone, and became a wanderer, looking for a place in this world.
Tanavar was a strange night elf, who hasnt slept in barrwo dens like all other night elves, because of his half-working magical addiction.. When Felwood was created his dark side revealed itself, as he was corrupting the forest, summoning demons and helping satyrs as a mage. His was the one who helped to find a place for the Skull of Gul'dan in Felwood. When the night elves destroyed the skull and demons, he ran away, to stay alive. After travelling through the tainted and corrupted lands of Kalimdor, leanring the ways of darkness and helping demons in Desolace he has finally returned.

Reason: Nurga's post removed, SpEtNeZz's merged.
You really need some paragraphs in the first post. Unreadable.

well i got a lot of item ideas that should drop from bosses or buy from vendors, but there is 1 problem. i'm not sure about the stats. i meen i never actually leveled untill 200 to see how the damage/armor/stats/etc are like. so don't know what stats to put on them.
@majIc_seeKer: hmmmm, it might require alot of testing but in the game info their is a list of req. lvls that you need to be in order to fight a boss, so i would say just make the boss and then place a unit at the req. lvl and see how hard it is, but just remember that you want it to be hard if it is only one player so that you need group play.
Edit: and remember the classes, weapons are permanent etc.
@Soul Theft what are you good at???
