Castle of Sothis 1.24

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
by Orangejuice (aka ProtoArmor battle.net Azeroth East)

This is a two-team hero instance. Each team must try to obtain the crown then keep it for five minutes. There is creep respawn and a max hero level of 30. This is based on one of my previous maps. If you make a mod, note based on version by author. If you want to try the map as single-player, comps work (add one or more to other team).

-Auto-revive until someone has obtained the crown.
-custom sandstone tile
-Mild customization of icons and names to fit feel of map only
-8 hero classes: just new or modified hero types--names, ability sets, icons/names for buffs/abilities, and a couple of ability triggers to un-nerf healing for high levels.

1.24
-fewer knights in force field subquest
-2 1/2 minutes holding crown to win
-Limit #of spawned dungeon units at a time (total already limited)
-Edited defeat bosses cinematics

1.23
-much more space in dungeon and added a spawn
-additional graphics, enemies, and triggers for last area

1.20

-Lots of tweaking for the new heroes and their ability sets

-Custom tileset replacing cityscape brick to a pyramid sandstone texture

1.15
-Camera: rotation zones with option to turn off.
-Endings: Fully implemented alternate endings (4, slightly different) depending on outcome of endgame timer round--all outcomes now posted to the quest log.
-AI: Better pathing and worked out all remaining bugs in trigger-based AI (now comps attack barrels at Floor 4 boss etc).
-Quest Log: updates for creep camps discovered, bosses defeated, and current winner unit and status of end round.
-Tweaks: Hero balancing, change Orc attrib to Strength, and others

1.14
-New pyramid layout with separate paths for each team until Floor 4 boss
