Jysco Isles

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
A dark shadow with a Ring of Power invaded these isles. Mystical creatures arrived to conquer the magic ring. They also drop powerful items to help that will help to battle your opponents.


Changelog



Terrain
- The isles are connected to also allow computers to play well
- The start locations are changed to put teams of 2 together for a 2 vs 2 vs 2vs 2
- They have 1 Tavern and 1 Shipyard
- The tier 2 and 3 are a bit more resistant and cost more
- The main start locations have a lot more gold and lumber, but other gold mines are ephemeral

Heroes
- Max level is 30, most spells go up to level 6, ultimates up to level 3
- Added a 5th spell
- They keep on gaining some experience from creeps after level 5 (but less experience the higher level they have)
- If a hero type matches a legendary item, the item becomes undroppable and no longer drops upon death.

Creep camps
- Added large creep camps with specific themes on distant isles that drop unique items.
- The unique items drop upon death
- Added mercenary camps with mercenaries up to level 10
- Added a few level 9 or 10 items on large creep camps (but these are not unique)
- Large creep camps also give some resources and are done by computers, and they pick up unique items.

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.
