Map Info:

AOTL is a hero seige map where you must defend the king and battle forward to destroy the enemies base.
Destroying the buildings stop their unit production. The town is actually being raided by insane orcs
and undeads, you have to go to the heart of their base and find out what is causing them to be aggressive
and insane and destroy that source. This game requires teamwork and roles such as healer, damager and support
are extremely essential.

Features:

Pot system: potions are stored in spellbooks so that more items can be used.

1)Upgrade Troops system: anyone can upgrade the alliances troops and anyone can donate money to the alliance or stop their unit production as it costs money.

2)Boss spells: bosses have unique spells to make the gameplay hard. Spells are dodgeable.

3)Unique spells: Heroes and even (some) enemy creeps all have custom made spells that are unique and are scaled based on stats

4)The spells are also stat based to make the spells applicable in late game.

5)Anyone can also use the King to defend

Author's notes:
This map is actually a remake of a map that i made when i was only 7, that time i had a dream of being a game programmer i just wanted to complete and remake this map so badly cause warcraft is my childhood.
So please help me i would greatly appreciate it! If you have any ideas of boss spells, item ideas, hero ideas do let me know! Thanks ^^

I downloaded and played it a few times.

I like the fast gameplay, and some of the skills look neat.
I have played it with the mountain king and the lightning dude. The second most certainly had a more pleasant gameplay. Seems like melee heroes have a rough time.

A few minor things I encountered:
-Battle Call tooltip has some unclear information in it´s tooltip about how much armor is aqcuired.
-Sheild of Might (might be supposed Shield of Might) has no disabled icon.
-Hyper Coin is in both lvl 3 shop as lvl 4 shop.
-I don´t understand what Level of [x] increases per [x] Intelligence means
-Lightning Field is a button, but it's a passive.
-It would be useful if there where hotkeys on buying tomes.

Upgrading your sides units requires you to step into a circle of power, it took me a while to find it, and it's inconvinient to go in there with so much action in the map.
Maybe it is possible to change this to a building in which you can produce some dummy units/upgrades?

I got a fatal error after a while, saying something like memory can not be written, it was at a moment I wasn't doing any specific skill or something, i just went back to the Heal fountains.

Well, anyway, good luck fine-tuning the map. :)

So the Butcher is a boss idea? I think there are enough bosses already though but maybe the abominations in the game will all have hook on hard mode! Which is pretty insane! Anyways I forgot to upload the latest version here!

Boss spell ideas for lightning shaman, blademaster, ogre lord and last boss will be greatly appreciated. Preferable make the spells dodgeable and can be countered :D:D

Lightning Shaman
- Chain Lightning, hits nearby heroes, bounces back and forth every 0.3 second (team work based to counter)
- Lightning Blast, blast a line of huge electrical pulse that damage and stuns. (counter to separated hero)

Blademaster
- Critical Hit, Chance on attack to instantly kill a hero. (1% may be?)
- Berserk, gains maximum attack and movement speed for a few seconds. (May be make this trigger if 3 hero surround him?)

Ogre Lord
- Bash Strike, Slams and bashes all targets in an area infront.
- Anger, Casting a spell increases armor and damage for 20 seconds.

GG XD
