Plagued Grounds (BETA)

Plagued Grounds (Paused)

Information

This map is a tag/survival/vamp-like game, its based on 11 players total (One Undead, Ten Humans and one NPC).
Its a little like Vamp, you need to make your own base and upgrade your walls to keep the Vampire away from yourself. But there is a difference, instead of letting your towers kill the vampire, you need to do it yourself, by building Armor/Weapon/Gold/Silversmiths to improve your own Human character by buying items that increases stats.

Also in this game, there is a NPC called Arthas' Force, because its based on the Kel'Thuzad part in the first human campaign. The Arthas' Force NPC is just a few Footmen and Knights that patrols on the map, dealing low damage and has low hit points. Humans use Arthas' Force to see where the Undead is, thats the good thing about it. The bad thing is that the Undead can spawn massive hordes of skeletons out of their Corpes.

Humans

Humans are the ones who needs alot of teamwork to win this game, the Abomination is extremely stronger than the humans, even if they have the best items you can get. Thats why they need a stratetic way to destroy the Undead.

The humans goal are to build Weapon/Armor/Gold/Silversmiths to provide themselfes with items that gives bonus armor, damage, movement speed and attack speed (Some items has unique effects). They can also go grind Gold/Silver/Copper coins that spawns a random location on the map to gain gold faster.

I think all people rather wants to be Humans than the Undead, because of more gameplay, that will be changed in this game, the UNDEAD will have quests, events, choises and a chance to enjoy this game.

Undead

The Undead (Abomination) is the main enemy of the humans, its a big Abomination that has alot of hit points and seems undestructible in the start of the game. The Abomination has spells that helps himself to make the hunt for the Humans easier, but still, he needs a good way to use them since he cannot spam all spells at the same time, a good time and a clever brain and the Undead will win this game in no time.

How is this map?

I think this map is very fun to play, if you know how to play it. I think it keeps the Action-factor, atleast over decent for most people, because of the massive power of the Abomination. I myself have tried being the Undead and the Humans, and both teams won alot of times.

Undeads wins 60% and humans 40%, if Undead is extremely noob, the NPC kills him before humans even gets their gear.

-Attack, Move, Stop and other command buttons wasn't 100% matching with each other, a bit messy, but still ok.
-The map was a bit small, not so much space to build in.
-Minimap loading Screen =D
