Hey , I am Okunevic and I would like you to present my project , called Champions of the Island (previous name was Never Ending Agony , but it didn't fit in with the terrain very well)

News:Now we have a forum , www.championsoftheisland.ipbfree.com

Storyline:Legend has it that in the middle of Azeroth, there is an island where only the most powerful dare to venture upon. This was a mere folk tale until the greatest champions of each race received a challenge scroll from the "Guardian" called Slannesh. Each champion took on the challenge and ventured onto the island. That is where legendary champions will clash. (credits to zack1996)

Features:
Heroes : 18 unique , different and balanced heroes , providing fair gameplay for every single player ; (I'll spend long time to find the perfect balance)

Unique skill system : each hero will have 4 skills , upgradeable at level 1 . Each of these skills will have 10 levels , but maximum hero level will be 20 (or 25 , not 100% sure now) so players will have to actually think , what kind of ability builds should they make , and every skill in every level will count ;

Bounty system : Player's won't get any gold for killing units , they will get gold per each successful strike/spell that they will cast , more powerful the spells will be , more gold will be achieved . Also for killing mythical creatures and enemy heroes , players will be awarded with Runes , for which they will be able to achieve great and powerful weapons , armors and other items .

Experience system : Player heroes won't get experience for killing their enemies , instead , you will have to exchange your gold for experience (10 gold=1 exp) . This will make sure players stay active all the time (since easiest way of gaining gold will be spellcasting) ;

Boss fight system : Each time a certain boss's (A.K.A. Mythical Beast's) event starts , entrance to his lair will open . When player enters the lair , it closes , leaving the hero in 1v1 fight against the boss . Bosses will be able to cast spells , and also they will have special events (not going to reveal any of them in this description). Also if boss's attacker dies , boss fully restores it's
HP , MP and all ability cooldowns , along with all special abilities , thus making sure there won't be any Last Hitting and Kill Stealing . Also bosses will drop good and useful items ;

The Last Fight : There will be 4 obelisks in the map , Obelisk of Fire , Obelisk of Frost , Obelisk of Nature and Obelisk of Life . To activate each obelisk , you need to donate 50 000 gold to each one . (The amount donated won't be individual , so for example : player 1 donates 10k gold and player 2 donates 15k gold , so the total amount of gold donated will be 25k gold) . Once all obelisks are activated , Slannesh will appear . He won't move but he'll have high endurance , damage , range and of course , wide assortment of various spells (which will become stronger in time , so don't leave him be once you summon him) ;


People I am looking for :
GUI or JASS spellmaker (I sometimes run out of ideas)
Tooltip writers (I need someone who can write detailed tooltips in proper , fluent english (I make some grammar mistakes or typo's sometimes)
Terrainer (I really need one)
Modeler-Upgrade ,
Icon maker (the map surely could use some unique icons)
Testers/Bug Finders-anderf ,
Idea/Suggestion givers
Someone who can make a website for the map (we will be popular) ;]


For Pandaria !!!!

Slannesh himself (better not to mess with this guy)

Shadomancers are able to hit enemy souls directly (ouch , that's gotta hurt)

The name is much better than the previous map, by the way. The game looks a lot cooler now, than the previous thread, although I think you should have included ultimate spells for the map. I could do some tooltips, but frankly, I'm not going to sit down and do 72 tooltips.

If you need any testers, I wanna try it.

EXCELLENT TERRAIN! I see you changed the cactus, the flowers look funny but cool :D
Fancy getting trapped by flowers. The panda looks nice, I hope to see some nice drunken fists or something for him :D.
I realised that the panda seem to have some blue thingy on its head, whats the effect? Maybe explain some of the spells :D
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR MAP!

Damn, Flame fighter sounds pretty good!

Well, scarab is nice too, the tunnel is nice :O, burrow balances it, but flame fighter sounds more like a fist fighter! But anyways, flame fighter ftw?...!

The Fire Fighter IS a fighter, thats what makes him special! Most people would not think of using the FireLord Model for a fighter hero and I just happen to think of it a while ago.

You might want to give the Fire Fighter an attachment on his hand, the model of the attachment should be the Fire Lord's Projectile.

BTW: I sent you a friend invitation (Okunevic, Black Crown)

I would love to test this, shoot me a pm!

on a side note, i wouldn't do the panda skills. it's too uncreative, maybe +30 all stats with 1 skill, and after it's over -15 stats or something.
