Who Made This Map?: (Credits)
-Original idea goes to the original maker of Custom Hero Footmen wars
-I (Melthal) made this map from SCRATCH, I did not use anything from the original maps
-I had help from people here at the Hive as well


Why Is This Map Better Then The Others?:

Yes, I know there are like 3535345 versions of this game and they are unbalanced and everyone gets the same 5 hero builds. My map is better then all the other versions of this map is because the units AND spell combinations are balanced. There is no ONE spell build that is better then another, it all depends on your strategy. This will make it so there will be a wider variety of spell combinations so no hero will be the same. Each spell build has their own "Item Class", like weapons that increase spell damage or increase armor/damage block. On the release of the beta I plan on doing EXTENSIVE testing to make sure everything is 100% balanced. Yes this will take a while but I love this game it will be worth it.


What Is Different Between This Map and The Others?:

My map has all new custom spells ran by triggers, new heroes, new tech units/upgrades, and a bunch of new custom items. My goal to make this game just about completely different from the ones already out.



Game Play:

This game requires HUGE amounts of team work. As of now I have 12 players and each team has 2 people. So it would be 2 v 2 v 2 v 2 v 2 v 2. The wining team will be the one with the best team work, you will need to pick skills that compliment you AND your team mate. Example: Your teammate is Teching, So he will grab a lot of heals or aura to help his units out. You could then go Hero killer because he's taking care of their units and he can heal you. Or you could get an AoEer to help his teched units plow through enemy units. The object of the game is to destroy your enemies Barracks and have your team the last one standing.



When Will The Beta Be Released?:

This map IS NOT in the Beta Stages yet. I'm still working on the map as much as I can and I hope it will be done within the month and release the Beta version, the reason I'm posting this now is so I can get ideas from people who actually play the game and so I don't make the same mistakes as the other map makers.


More will be added as I get them done. Here is about were I am:

Ill be adding patch notes and update this post every day. Release date will also be posted here. Screen shot will also be posted of the Terrain and some of the spells.


Your Job: All I want if for people to post feed back on what I should add or change. Post any ideas you may have for Teched units, items, or spells. I'm open to ideas!
Please ONLY post USEFUL feed back.
This IS my first map I'm actually going to finish and I would have to say I am very happy with it so far. I realize that I need to come up with a different name because this one is way to similar to the one already out.

I will be posting Tooltips for ALL of the custom spells I make. This will be posted AFTER all the spells are finished.
