Gameplay
Pros
- Unit promotion system, really cool
- Recruitment system is not bad either

Cons
- Not really challenging
- Waves are too small and weak
- Reinforcements are quite large and too frequent, which makes it too easy
Terrain
An average blizz-like terrain, nothing much to say on that matter.
Verdict
It has potential, but it needs more work. Rated 3/5 and AWAITING UPDATE.

MAP NAME:
The Defense of Carmen Grad
AUTHOR: MasterChaos
MAP VERSION: 1.0
GAMEPLAY & BUGS
The gameplay was nice, defend the city at all costs. I like the upgrades that can turn a villager to a warrior but is kinda cheap for an upgrade, maybe high the price of it.The paladin hero only have 1 spell that has high damage but very long cooldown and it makes the paladin weak and vulnerable. There are waves when nether dragons attacks and your paladin hero and other ground units cannot hit air units, yet you have archers and riflemen but its not enough to destroy them, with their large numbers and there are no items available throughout the map and even an item shop. And the gathering of resources was effective but you can't train another peasants anymore, my workers almost die due to the fact that demons rain down from the sky and some came out of nowhere.
BUGS:
There is a very minor bug: You forgot to destroy the special effects:

SCORE:2/5
TERRAIN & AESTHETICS
The terrain was very plain and flat you did'nt use height leveling nor cliffs. You used not enough decorative doodads and many empty places and some tile variations does'nt match at all, all I can see it buildings and also trees. You could pour more work at this please.
Your description looks OK but needs more work and also add screenshots or videos if possible.

SCORE:2/5
STORY
The story was kinda vague for some reasons. Why would the demons want to destroy the city, is there is something valuable there? or just for fun? Where they came from? Who is their leader? Also when the Horde, Night Elves, Humans and Undead to help you, it makes it "weird" that the undead joined the defense, it would be better if they are the attacking the city too, Anyway just my taste and also they just came out of nowhere, maybe you could add to the cinematic that the paladin looked for help to aid them, not just appear immediately and joined the fray. The cinematics were fine but cannot be skipped, there are grammar mistakes too.

SCORE:3/5
SUGGESTIONS
Add spells for the main hero not just a single spell.
Add shops and useful items throughout the map.
Maybe make the cinematics skippable, think about it?
Make the price of the upgrades more expensive.
Make the peasants available to be trained to add more peasants to collect resources faster and will not die out when killed.
The quest said don't let the Paladin hero die but when the Blood Mage hero died, the game was over. Mind to fix that?
The defense is not really challenging maybe make the waves more frequent and heavy.
The thread needs more work, also add screenshots please.

OVERALL

I think the map, needs more work. Many things in this map that can be improve and fix, I vote for Needs Fix. Happy Mapping! :D

SCORE:2/5
