History:
After years of battles, the two forces has entered the fields of the last battle, the last stand. Just a few troops for each force is left. And they send them in small groups to attack the enemy.

The battles have been on for over thousands of years. Killing humans and destroying buildings. The war ended for one houndred years ago, but so many people had died that the gods of death had taken their souls and returned their skeltons back to earth. The new battle begun, and this is the year number fifthy of the battle. With so few humans left, the skeltons have captured a bigger place of the world.

The humans dont have Death as a chose, they want to win. Whatever that hapens. And now they send all forces for attack. By making spawn grounds there will come more people and troops to the world, and by that the battle can be won.

Unique:
- Arrow Movement for all troops (Can be turned on / off)
- Terrain

Its just a name.. Wizard Chess means like magical chess, in a magical world. There you are the chess player and the hero is your king.

Its not ment as "a chess game"..

Actually, Wizard Chess is the chess played in Harry Potter, where the pieces are alive...
That was my first thought, at least... but a name is a name, I can't really give you less/more points because of it.

Unfortunately, I cannot test the map since it's been made in v1.24 and I'm still stuck with 1.00 on this PC (edit: I am IP-banned, just checked that... though I have 3 real Warcraft CD's (both RoC and TFT) and no other PC in this house uses the same CD key as me...).
I might test the map when my ban is over... I hope that'll be soon.

I would love a chess-game with an AI (if anyone ever manages creating that damn hard AI), I don't really like AoS either (since DotA fucked it up), but okay...
Good luck, though.

To be honest, i did not know that.
Ive seen 4 of 5 Harry Potter movies.. I guess its in Half-Blood Prince since i never seen that movie..

My description says its like DotA and Battle Thanks, and i Categoried it AoS.. So everybody should remember that! :wink:

But.. Dont rate the game, in mind of DotA and BT, this is my version 2.2 and its very new. Cant even be in same comparison as older DotA versions.

But, there will be more of this game! :mwahaha:

It's in the first book/movie xD (to get the philosopher's stone, harry & co. had to play a game of Wizard Chess, they're also playing it randomly a few times).
Oh, well... nothing to worry about, it just made me think about it, that's all...

In fact, the older DotA versions are better in my opinion (before icefrog).
I rate the map for the map itself: what features it has, the coding (if unprotected), the balancing, I let other people do the comparison and decide what they like best...

I´ve just checked the site and it might be possible that I´m banned for several weeks :/ Blizzard can´t see how long I´m banned theirselves...

I played 3 games. First one i picked the hero "The Master" (Paladin model) and he was paused. I checked quests and there is nothing about that. Then I used "Restard" and I choosed another hero "Mysterious Man" and he was paused too. I though its because I added a computer player for player 6. Ok ok I done rmk and i was not even able to pick a hero.

• Map not working properly for 1.24b
• Quests doesn't give enough info
• The map is a copy one of "Battle Tanks"

AA yea and about the name. Wizard's chess? Wtf I expected chess not battle tanks type of map. Bah! Rejected

I know the answer for all the Points and Questions.. :)

First, you need a Computer (or another player) to chose hero, else the game actually ends.. But it does not since it comes a Dialog, so i will remove dialog soon.

The other is, that the other person have to chose a hero before your hero unpause. Its works with as many people you want to have ingame.

- Map not working properly for 1.24b
Why is that? Ive tested it well and long, and it works perfect!

- Quest does not give enought info
I know, but give me time, first i need to create the game before i can do miscellineas like that.

- The map is a copy one of "Battle Tanks"
Thats wrong, its not a copy at all... Ive created the Terrain and Triggers, and all other things from the begining. But yes, i know it looks like it, and ive "stolen" some of their ideas in the game.. But its not a "copy" at all.. Everything is created and made by myself.

And about the thing with chess, im gonna change name of the game since everybody is like: "Wtf, i thought it was Chess".. But the idea behind the name is that it sounds cool, and a bit funny. And the game is strategy, just like Chess.. You move around your brick on the map and tryes to kill / remove other bricks... If you understand.. ^^

Now ive answered long and well for you.. Hope you got more understanding about the game now.. :)

Version 2.3 will do so you dont need any Computer, and in that way you can play alone! :) Enjoy ;)

As I already told you, you lack custom triggered abilities and ultimates :p
Also you should really give heroes a possibility to attack air units (cause even towers cant, only archers) and the last one point I'd like to mention is about damage number over attacked units. Normally these damage numbers are not shown, but as I understood, they should be shown over the units, which were attacked by the player-hero. The problem is that after this attack the damage even of creeps is shown over them ;(

When you attack a creep / unit / hero with a HERO, it shows over the attacking creep / unit / hero. Its not working with a normal unit.

Anyway, i know about the Ultimates.. (Of course i do.. -.-)
I just need some ideas, anyway i got a person to help me with next version of the game. And he is a Spell / Hero maker! ;D
The only things gonna come for next version is Abilities and Items. :)

Hope most of you guys like this game. Ive used alot of time on it.

This is what I'm talking about. After the hero attacks the target for the first time - the damage starts to be shown for EACH attack made against this target.

As always, if you need help with spell / heros / code you can write me.
