Legion of Heroes

Dragonflight Wars

I'm working on a small AoS map (128x128) on a Icecrown Glacier tileset...
Main idea revolves around the Dragon Gem, a powerful item that has the power to control all the dragons... The Legion of Heroes (Good Guys) want to protect the Dragon Gem and the Alliance of Darkness (Bad Guys) want to gain the Dragon Gem for their own purposes...

Some features I want to implement in this map are:
+AI players
+Duel System
+Custom Attribute System (like Power, Dexterity, Magic)
+Three levels of item making (like Short Sword>Broad Sword>Claymore)
+Weather Events (like Meteor Shower, Lightning Storm, Earthquake, Tornado)

Please give me some of you ideas, thoughts or suggestions on this...

I also need a loading screen, Can some one please give me a link to a dragon picture or can anyone make a custom one???

Okay if you wanna join in.. Shoot! Start giving some suggestions

Okay so you want this to revolve around an artifact called the "Dragon gem"- That has the power to control\rule dragons.... and its an AOE map... How bout Dragon Knights fighting for the artifact. Different Dragon Knights specialising in different classes and abilities, maybe even add freelancers\mercenaries and even dragons joining the fight.

The Dragon Knights would support your item creation.

Can even take the item creation further. Let players create custom items to fit their characters and play style.
Ex.One player will craft a sword with
+Critical Strike
+Damage
+Attack Speed

While another crafts the same sword with
+Damage
+Life steal
+Attack Speed

Nice idea, But for Dragon Knights I'll require many custom skins or models :'( and also do you know how to make loading screens or know some one who can???

 

[Naz]

Hehe don't worry we can work something out and there are tons of people on the hive who have mad skills that can help. So what do you say? You wanna do this?

 

[Cryophoenix]

[Naz]

you could add some nutral mother dragons flying around (patrolling) some sides they can attack both the "good" and the "bad" guys, they are there to protect something, you can make that "something" as a side quest or seomthing, a dragon egg, who ever use it (which is to hatch it in other words) will gain this big papa dragon ^.^ the dragon WILL be strong but not that strong that you should close the game :S
got a lot more idea

idea number 2, you will make like a dragon knights ye? so um, dragon knights with dragon trying to protect the gem, but what do you mean in "gem" anyways dragon knights will be cool if they had this ability to summon units

if they are all dragon knight then the games name "Legion of Heroes" wouldnt fit in. i suggest a variety of classes.

 

[Magnet199]

^ true that

 

[rcshaggy]

Should've been called Legion of Dragons instead, and Legion of Heroes sounds morel like more heroes and anything to do with lots of heroes, but in this case with lots of Dragon Knights, it should've of been that.
Well anyway just check the Hive for your models/skins you need.

 

[Naz]

Thanx for ideas all
