This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
Description: Kingdom Wars. Kingdom Wars is basically like village builder but on a more big concept. Their are three sections to the map, summer/grassy, fall, and snowy/winter. Each has its advantages and disadvantages which players can use to their advantage if it can help turn the tides in their favor. The map has a secret cave in the center of the map that has creatures lurking, waiting, planning for the right moment to strike! When they find the chance they will. Each area is cut off by something different, summer/fall with trees and cliffs, summer and fall cut off from the snow by the sea. Their are many races attempting to take this land for their own desires. The humans, the undead, the demons, the night elves, and many others will attempt to take these lands facing off with each other, and themselves. They just have to worry about the creatures that lurk within the cave. But, if they destroy this army, and capture the cave, their will be a reward waiting within. At a certain time and with a certain item/unit, they will get this reward.
Details:
Currently there is only the human race. No items for heros because well... there are no heros. There are three ares to play in, a summery area, a fall area, and a winter area. Currently the cave is inactive because I need to work on a few more spells, add a trigger, and create atleast a simple ai for them, maby add triggers. The humans have three teir's of two styles of units. A style for melee and a style for range. There is an income system not set up by me, infact I forgot the persons name since I started this map almost a year ago, working on and off of it.
Here is the link to the site where I have hosted the map project. [ http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/map-development-202/kingdom-wars-145170/#post1324075 ]This map isnt in beta but it isnt complete. I need help for triggers, jass, and spells as well as models. If anyone wants to help with the map please do, I need quite a bit of help.
Yes I got the idea from village builder, I liked the idea I just thought I would build off from it. Its not copying because I have my ideas added, new terrain template, and a new way of picking your race. Different style of units, and custom spells for heros. I have not yet put heros into the map.

If you notice something of yours in there and I didnt give credit, please let me know and I will add your name.
01.0.3: Made a few new triggers, some for the undead income, made it so that way it is possible to get into the empty woods, added some trees, made a new little eye candy, and finally got rid of some doodads that wernt needed.
01.0.2: Started on the undead race, made the income units and started on the first section, the melee part.
01.0.1: Lowered some of the units hp and fixed brown so that way the gnolls dont attack you. I added a few units for the undead and am currently working on their melee classes. Also added a few screenshots.

well actually you DO need food. the rifleman and the rifleman(yeah thats right 2 units with the same name) DO cost food. 3 each to be exact. and as you cant get food in this game that would be bad. so fix that up!

Thanks for letting me know. I'll fix that immediatly.
EDIT: There, its fixed now. If anyone would like I really could use some spell creaters, jassers, and other people to help with my map. Its done it just has more that can be added on to it. Like the other races.

I'll add screenies and make the description better today, I just got really tired since I finished ther est of that map yesterday. Please note I did all that map by myself. Except for with Arcmage helping me with a spell that I wont show off until when I get some heros finished. For today my objective is screenshots and better the description.
EDIT: How exactly do I add screenies?

You will need more units, structures and stuff. Also the game is pretty imbalanced, tier 1 archer spam + some t1 footy is the best. Example: For 100g I can get an unmounted knight. He has 500 hp and 23 damage. For the same gold I can get 10 archers. Together thats 1500 health and 130 ranged damage. To balance this you can:
Increase the cost of archers
Empower tier 3
Add AoE units which are effective against hordes, but less effective against elite units.
Stuff you might want to add:
Walls
Towers
Some cool unique building that stands out.
Techs
More units
The terrain should be focused on as well. Add some more doodads, some tile variation and use height tools to create more variation.

I dont want to add towers because people would just mass massive ammounts on one section so its harder to kill them all, and just demolish armies. Ive seen it in other maps that are kind of like this and its just so cheap that I have them on the ropes and Im in their base with a large army, and it gets demolished by just this one section of massed towers. I also put this out here to try and get some help. Though it is done and people can play it I really do need help with it. I'll work on the terrain as best I can and make it so that way people can still play around the doodads and it not effect them.

What about making towers use food just like units? This way towers would be limmited and you would have to choose between stronger defence and the size of your army...

Hm, good idea. I'll make it so they only allowed ten towers, give the towers an ok attack and attack speed, maby add different types of towers. Alright well Im almost updating the map again. Oh and I have no clue how to make walls/do gates. Then again that can be very annoying to, the gate thing. Gonna have to put it in though so anyone mind helping me out with that?

You can take look at gate systems in such maps as Eras zombie invasion. There is a good example of using wall dodad paths and models.

Well you can just take the Wall destructible's path and model to any building and you've got a wall!

Thanks, I thought that you had to have sertain type of of pathing for it to work. So I just put the model on any building and it will build like a line?

Things that I don't like:
1st - Map Description (Add some color to text, ttp://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/map-development-202/kingdom-wars-145170/#post1324075 can be placed to url code with BB Code just like This Example)
2nd - Terrain is very poor
3th - Memory Leaks
5th - Import Manager (593 KB for Rifleman texture)
6th - Building pathing ground (just look at attached picture -.-)
7th - No Loading Screen (custom) or map preview image
8th - Only 1 custom ability

Excuse me sire but as I have said earlier this map is in production so its not perfect. Of course the terrain is poor Im working with three different sections that take up terrain space in the terrain editor so I cant really do much. If you have a tutorial of how I can use more than the terrain that Im allowed (the number they give you) then please let me know. Im not a perfect triggerer so Yes there will be some leaks and Im not a spell maker so yes theres only one spell (Arcmage doesnt seem to reply anymore for some reason.) which explains why there are no heros. I honestly dont think I will be adding sound until I get more stuff into it and figure out how to do that stuff. I have the pathing ground like that so you can build in the castles, Im not that pro at making buildings pathable for certain terrains. I already have a loading screen idea up but I cant seem to figure out how to put it in. And if you would like to make me an entry for kingdom wars so it could get more helpers then please do, I could sure use it. >.<

I think that map isn't finished jet, use Map Development forum for that! You can make thread there upload your map so people can tell you what they think just like here! Also for any help with triggers or how to clean memory leaks post triggers and create threads here Triggers & Scripts! Btw if you need any help with WE we have World Editor Help Zone here on THW! And at the end if you need any resource from icons to loading screens check this out Requests!

Well it is all about fame, thrust me!
First dude that commented my map was Vengeancekael
You want to know how comment look like? Link to comment
I was so poor, always ignored, nobody wanted to help (I mean people who really know)
Then I decided to help someone, I gained some rep very fast! Nice but I wanted more!
I downloaded Vengeancekael map and do what I can do best, terrain! I re edited whole terrain and upload map back, send link to him just to to prove to him that I am something! He is now my best friend here ^^' I meet many great guys here and now I am working with some of them on their projects!
My point was to tell you that there is many other ways to promote your map! Post screenshots to terrain board, bother some dudes for Icon, model (maybe you use model maybe not), but people will hear about you, enter to chat sometimes, you will see who will help you who will not! Ask them for opinion, ideas, make thread in idea factory about story, heroes I don't know it's your map! There will be at least one guy that will help you! Gain some fame and thrust me you will have hands full of work
