Any proof of permission or at least trying to get it from the original author(s)?

I'm not sure who's the original author, the map has been passed around from person to person for like two decades.
I've tried to list most names I could find in Special Thanks, that I think has some impact to the LTW history.

Most Line Tower Wars versions I have is of a different author, and it's hundreds.
The oldest versions I can find as of now from my disks are from 2005 and some are even modified by me back then. But even these versions are based on other, older, versions.

Who would you say is an original author in this case?

As it is now I think with all the unique features of Line Tower Wars: Reforged, it's a completely different map from the other Line Tower Wars, except the name and basic gameplay loop. Everything in the map is new and from scratch. It's also pretty much the only Line Tower Wars version played.

Line Wars Reforged STD is a contemporary remake of a well known multiplayer tower defense series of maps. This one comes with super variety and conversion to modern UI customized elements.
Not entirely sure if the tower gameplay mechanics remain loyal or are enhanced.

Approved.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION

• A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
• A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
• Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.
