7.1 24.05.2024
This patch is one of the biggest yet with big changes to race, creeps, and heros.

-Added three new heros: Fire Lord, Skylord and Faceless Lord
-Fire Lord (Demon) works like the original Fire Lord Hero

-Skylord (Human): Wind Rider summons a Wind Rider (duh) that can be enhanced by Feather of the Himmel which adds a chance for extra auto attack damag for the Skylord and one ability per level for the Wind Rider (1. Envenomed Weapons, 2. Ensnare, 3. Wind Walk). Tear Drop Illusion creats an illusion of an enemy that takes more damage but also deals damage.
His ultimate Dragon Form transforms the Skylord temporarily into a Red Dragon with an AOE attack and more stats. In Addition all units summond by the Skylord in Dragon Form level 2 hold on until death.

-Faceless Lord (Demon): Parasite inflictes an dot onto an enemy that deals damag over time. If this units dies during the duration of the dot 1 to 3 Parasites will spawn depending on the level of the abilite. Blink works like always and Dark Ritual can be used to sacrifice undead or demon units for mana. Parasites count as undead. The Thing from below summons 8 Tentacles that will attack any enemy in range with deadly darts. On level 2 those tentacles will spawn Scarabs on death to keep on the fight.

-Pristress of the Moon: Searing Arrows was bugged -> replaced by Healing Stardust (aka Healing Spray)
-Keeper of the Grove: Wall of Trees was to weak -> replaced with the basic Force of Nature (Keepeer of the Grove will be reworked in the future)
-Far Seer: Doomhammer was removed and replaced by Earthquake. The new Earthquake is a basic ability with less power that will summon Mud Golmes and slow enemys
-Tinker: Damage of the Sawblade increased.
-Makrura Tidal Lord: Battle Roar durration increased
-Pit Lord: Firewall dealed to much damage and was nerfed

The Townhall got an rework.
-on tier 3 and 4 you now can choose between different buildings supporting different races. Tier 3 adds one abilite to the Townhall to aid either undead/demon units, nightelf/naga units or a more neutral abilite.
-on Tier 4 you can choose between two buildings depending on the building you choose beforehand. Each Tier 4 Building supports one of the 6 races with an unique upgrade supporting that race and your main hero.
-the townhall now grants less food overall so the player has to actually choose what units to use and to reduce abnormal big armies aswell as the pressure of too much multitasking

Liferegeneration now works diffrently for units of each race. Main hero liferegeneration stays as it is.
-Undead and Demon units regenerat life only on blight but on a very high rate. Blight can be found on the map or be placed via items or the townhall.
-Nightelf and Naga units regenerate life only at night but at a good rate. You can create an artificial night with items or the townhall.
-Orc and Human units have the basic liferegeneration that always applies but has the lowest value.

Many Creeps camps are now adjusted and new items can now drop.
-to Strong creep abilies where removed
-added new types of creeps to the map
-added many new abilites to creep camps
-added new items. Some drop only from special creep camps and some can be bought in shops
-some creep camps now have a chance to spawn with a loot horslin for extra loot

The King of the Hill event was reworked because the Flag items was to exploitable
-when selling the final Win Point a "King of the Hill" hero unit will spawn at the selling units position and the Flag of the King item will be placed in his inventory
-the King of the Hill hero unit is a basic deathknight with more HP and slow movement. He can raise in level but can only learn stat increase.
-the Flag of the King item will no longer be droped on death of the hero
-when the King of the Hill unit is slain it will be instantly revieved but under the controll of the killing player

-some armor stat where off and are now adjusted
-ability upgrades should now be more clear in what they do
-added, replaced or moved some abilitys from units (Abominations now can learn Plague Cloud with tier 3)

-changed some paths on the map
-some items can now cut down trees
-you can now find dead trees on the map, cut them down and find out

  1. Nice little idea however extensively based on Warcraft III gameplay mechanics.
  2. Some heroes don't have glow. You could simply add it: How to add Hero Glow without Modeling
  3. T2 Turtle didn't want to teleport back to base. I was still on tier 1. Found the turtle as an item. Upgrading to higher tiers didn't fix it. The Overlord from the crate item also didn't teleport.
  4. Not sure if intended but the sell barrel can be destroyed if attacked by multiple units.
  5. Rolled tested like crazy and no T4 units came.
Overall, it's a nice idea but gets monotonous quickly.

Hello!
You forgot to delete Flag of The King from the Player 1 base in 5.6 version of the map.
Overall map is good, but it needs more random events, more unique items, more unique units and heroes.
