Defend the fortress against the massive waves of demons and undead.

This 30-40 min. survival game is meant to be played with 4 to 8 players.
There are six different heroes, all with their own playing styles, and I'm currently working on more. Buy units and items to defend your lane, and research upgrades to improve your troops. This game comes with 7 difficulties, ranging from Cookie mode to Haxx, which is only recommended for expert players.

This is version 1.3, patch notes are in the Quest-Log menu, and any Question, Suggestion or Bug you find, can be posted here or be send to [email protected].
Credits to HappyTauren for the Militia Archer model, and to Palaslayer for the Scythe icon.
This Map is Protected.

Known Bugs:
All shops target the Potion Belt by standard.

Currently Working On:
2 Brand new heroes, the Shaman and the Rifleman. If anyone has suggestions for a nice Strength hero, that would be appreciated.

Special Thanks to:
Wiebe, Jurjen, Espen, Maarten, Ruurd, Edwin, Harold and Jeroen for alpha and beta testing, and for their innovative ideas, and YOU for downloading this map.

Keywords:
Invasion, Wods-Up, Sirbob, Demon, Undead, Survival, LAN, Defense, Lord Omnomnom.

"7 difficulties, ranging from Cookie mode to Haxx"

To be honest things like this is a MAJOR turn off for me please try to keep everything spelt & grammatically correct it will get you a lot more downloads.

Even though there is that problem which really is very close to making me not touch this, I will come with a review if I have time today or within this week.

Edit: Review

2/5 voted for rejection until updated.

Basically it felt like castle defense without any of the fun.

Pros
Game had a drop off system to drop mobs into your castle to add a bit more to the game
Game seemed to be leak free.

Cons
Very boring
Game doesn't have any oomph
Terrain is very boring as well
Classes spells seemed very overused and not too creative.

I think you could have a good map on your hand if you just updated a couple of keypoints. Such as, terrain, classes, gameplay etc... Goodluck with the map hope this gets updated for the better.

Sorry that it has no colors etc for the review I usually do, just very tired atm

The map is really boring what additionally is incarased by fact that heroes does not have ultimate abilities. Another bad thing is the shopping range - whole map. That makes players just stand and sometimes mark shops and then buy items. The terrain is really bad. You should improve it even if it`s a map where you just stand in one place. Especially the ways enemies are coming needs a lot of improvements. Also it`s really too easy even at hard. It`s not really good idea to make like 7 difficulity levels when there is no big difference between them.

I give it 2/5

First of all, I want to thank you all for placing a comment on my map. Even though the ratings were bad, I now know what the faults in my map are. I've already improved the terrain, and I'm looking how to improve the rest.

For the people who want to download this map: don't.
I suggest you wait a few weeks until I post a newer, and better version of Invasion. This may take a while, for I am slow and I want to change a lot of things.

I hope you will look to my map again when I've updated it, and see if it deserves a better rating then.

Thanks again, Wods-up.

I'm sorry

Right now, I'm very busy with School starting soon, -as I want to pass my exams this year- that I don't really work with Invasion anymore.

I realized that the idea of this game-mode is overused, and the spells are boring and not thought through.

The time I do spend with the computer is mainly composed of a new, and better project with wc3, and watching Anime.

I doubt that Invasion will ever get fixed, and I think it's best that this game will be rejected, or deleted from Hive. (Moderator, anyone?)

Thanks for reading, Wods-up.

PS: Don't worry, I'll be back sometime with a better map.
