Probably the most advanced tag game made under Warcraft 3 platform
As in every tag map you control either a builder and protect yourself by building a base or an Ancient with your goal to kill anything that is alive. This is an ultimate Tag game turning simple building and item buying into a constant battlefiend providing lot more than just buying items and watching things happening around.
What's different here to other Tag:
- 6 Ancient Evils classes (Demon, Nerubian, Gargoyle, Werewolf, Wraith and Vampire), each with 16 unique abilities to choose from [4 nukes, 4 supports abilities, 3 exploring abilities, 4 healing abilities and one special ability]
- 21 Human heroes to choose from, each with unique abilities greatly supporting other classes
- More than 40 items for Ancient Evils and another 40 for human players, many of them with abilities themselves, ready to use to bring the glory
- Greatly organized terrain where every single aspect of building is considered and every single saved builder place is important
- Lots of useful commands, including votekicking, votefeeding, zooming terrain out and trading
- Very well triggered game, as leakless as possible, error free, clean and smooth gameplay
- Nicely explained spells, lots of details, effects targets and highlights indicating most important parts
Game Mechanics:
Primary resource for Humans is Lumber. There are no lumber jacks in the game, wood is granted by building Lumber bases which are clearly indicating for how many players base is made for (many other games lumber jack can be misused by players when they build in far too many people in one place). There is also second way of gaining lumber, a Tree of Life growing in the middle of the map, which any time attacked by builder will provide him with some lumber, however, this is a very risky way as this place is very often visited my Ancient Evils. Third way of gaining lumber is killing neutral creeps spawning around the map. Creeps grow stronger with time and after a while they will not be an easy enemy. To tech up and improve economy Humans must gather Gold which can be only done in Gold Arena, this requires having a Hero.
Primary resource of Ancient Evils is gold. This is granted periodically, is also a reward for killing enemy units and structures. There is also an income upgrade provided, to periodically provide more gold. To buy better items Ancients will require lumber, this can be acquired by killing enemy heroes and certain structures. Pretty much, Humans in order to build stronger defence are using Heroes and also by using them they risk having them killed. This is absolutely impossible for Humans to never use their heroes and just keep them in a base, as sooner or later, even with basic items Ancients will be strong enough to scar every base on their way to the victory.
