Monster Master:Rise of Nine
EDIT:This post has been labeled stagnant please go here http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...r-master-rise-nine-heroes-vs-army-map-149314/ for the updated version. Monster Master:Rise of Nine
There's a new map in production and it plans to be a great team based RPG. The game is based on player reactions so instead of an AI reaction from the main enemy, this game places the main enemy in the control of a player. This is going to require a lot of balance but I can handle it. I am revealing this project to the public because I am working very hard to finish it. Let me reveal what it is.

Story
-----------
There is an evil lich who rules an ever expanding kingdom. His empire stretches far and wide, occupying more than three quarters of a continent. He has ruled for over 200 years and if another 200 should pass he will surely rule half the world. Unfortunately for this powerful lich, there is a prophecy, it prophecizes that the lich should fall under the fist of nine powerful heroes should he engage them in combat under certain conditions. Upon hearing this the lich knew he must amass an army and conquer much in order to prevent the day the heroes should arise to overthrow his throne and grant the kingdom freedom from his power. The lich became known as the Monster Master. Should the heroes emerge victorious from their epic struggle they will have overthrown the most devious ruler in all of the history of their world. Then their souls shall rest until they are once again in time of need and their deeds will disperse into legend....
Should the Prophecy stay the same?
--------------------------------------
Although I will not put the full prophecy into the game(although I may put it online in the writing section or somewhere else on this forum). However, I will put a piece of the prophecy in the loading screen. Please give feedback on the prophecy and I will decide whether to keep it or change it up.

My game has these bosses as of yet and I aim for at least 15.
Bosses
-----------
-Mastermind
-Telemage
-Zarangar Arena Team
-Fire Demon Lord(secret boss)
These fights will not be explained until the game is further in production.
However, I will now implement some boss lore. The lore is taken directly from the lore system implemented in the game for the monster master.

In order for the main idea look in http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/idea-factory-462/monster-master-feedback-145030/ it has the main concept idea.
The game is still very early in production but, as always, I am planning sixty steps ahead. Any help to speed along the process is appreciated especially since I'm not so great on JASS.
I will be updating this page frequently to match my progress as long as everyone keeps giving ideas and feedback.
By all means give me feedback on the game, I really want some fresh ideas in my game. Also do not be shy to apply for the dev team I could use a little help making this game after all.

"As the moonlight shines again the king of creatures commands, and as the sun grows bright the emperor of evil radiates his incredible glow. He has power beyond reason and cunning fit to a fox or a snake, but all things must come to a halt, all things stop, nine will arise, and they will go unannounced and put an end to the monstrousness abound. Then he the evil will be ever more wary but some can't be said for sure, the monster master's kingdom will fall just as he had risen up. Gone for ever more."

Lore system
----------------------
Adalon had always been interested in studying the criminal mind. Although born to hard times, Adalon was gifted with incremental intelligence. At the age of 17 he joined the Urman-Yuka bandits known as the Shadow Thieves. This was the beginning of Adalon's legacy.
As the years went by Adalon became more and more adept at theft and pillage. One day on a warm summer's day, the leader of the shadow thieves was locked in battle with several regional defenders. Adalon saw his leader's plight and rushed to help him. But during the fight the leader had become seriously hurt. As they returned to the hideout the leader of the bandits realized he had little time left.
After several days of the leader suffering from his wound, he finally approached his deathbed. He asked every bandit to gather round, and announced that Adalon would be his successor. No one had any qualms as Adalon was by far the most brilliant of the bandits. Adalon would be the bandit's first mastermind.
Adalon directed the bandits as they had never done before. His plans were amazing and it made the bandits incredibly powerful and wealthy. His underlings dubbed him the "schememaster" as he always had a brilliant plan. But misfortune struck, and the hideout was raided by a young and eager captain of the elven guard. At least thirty bandits were killed, and the ones that escaped disbanded. The shadow thieves were no more.
Production progress
Adalon was now in his early thirties, and decided he would form yet another group of bandits. They called themselves Yukirians and they were powerful under the mastermind's rule. Then the monster master came to him.
The monster master spoke to him, and told Adalon that he was Kalavarzarthas and that he wanted Adalon to lead the Yukirians in his name. Adalon saw this as a chance to grow his armies and become even wealthier. For years Adalon has served the monster master's armies. He is powerful and his hideout is your first line of defense for anyone wishing to conquer the monster master.
