Dalaran Mages​

Hello everyone, LordHatchet95 here. I bring you an altered melee map 1 vs. 1. This time we're playing as a surviving branch of the Dalaran Mages.

Lore​

"After the destruction of Dalaran, a surviving branch of the Mages and scientists took some of their research and resources out of the ruins and went into hiding."

"Long after establishing elsewhere, a small settlement was discovered by an unknown hostile scout (Blue)."

"The inhabitants of this settlement (Red) will put their survival knowledge, magical prowess and experiments towards silencing these unsuspecting scouts."

Several notes:​

  • Latest Reforged Version, compatible with SD and HD.
  • Their main theme is... everyone is either a mage, or a magical creature.
  • This works as a standard melee faction, but deviating from the usual.
  • Units have low health but also mana shields.
  • Craftsman Mills can harvest up to 50 wood manually. (Still working on it)
  • Some models and audios will be changed in a future update.

Pretty much a human-high elf reskin. Some nice ideas with the Mana Shield but overall pretty much 100% core game mechanics and abilities. Simple. If you want more reviews, you should participate in the The Grand Review Exchange! R U L E S Site...

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION
  • A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
  • A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
  • Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.
