Total Warfare [Map Idea]

[Lonely Wolf.]

The Plot

Basicly a Battlefield map (Think LOTR, that fortress-like-ish)
Two teams, one is defending their region (the orcs), and the other is for some reason trying to ereas them from the region (Elfs and Humans)

Team 1

• Human
• Night-Elf
• 6 Heroes

Night Elfs start to the North,they will attack with both ground units and airial assults.
Humans will be to the south, with both foot soldiers and naval attacks.
Here is also an idea on what units the Heroes can controll

Team 2

• Orc
• 6 Heroes

The Orcs are stationed at their stronghold, which btw is not complete yet due to the attacks.

Heroes

In the beginning, you will only be able to control your Hero, since you are a low ranked unit.
Each time you level up, you get higher food limit, and you can control more units to assult the Orc base diff. places, maximum units allowed to control ATM is 7.
There will also be able to call for reinforcements by using (f.ex) flare gun, then there will be a countdown before the reinforcements are being teleported to your location.

Here is also an idea on what units the Heroes can controll
P1(NE): Rangers + Druids + Ancient of the Lore (look-a-like)
P2(NE): Glaive Throwers + mt. Giants + Dryads
P3(NE): Ancient of War + Fiery Dragon + Chimera

Except from that, the AI will send some automaticly now and then.

Capturing zones

while the Orcs has these zones (all inside their fortress), they will spawn Units.
If the other Team (1) gets it, they will get aditional resources to upgrade their own units in their base.
In adition, those who have the capturing Zone will be able to revive there aswell

Loot / gear

The only way i see that you will be able to get new gear is by killing the oposit teams Elite troops (named units) which will spawn now and then.
In the beginning, there will be named units guarding the capturing zones.
And some random drop when a Hero is killed.

Win/Lose Condition

each team has a number of units (Ticks), when this reaches 0, the team loses.
Also, i thought that Team 1 has to fight against the clock.




Here at the bottom is a scetch of the map that i have created
Red Dots = NE Foot soldiers (North)
Red Dots = Human Foot soldiers (South)
Blue Dots = NE Airial units
Black Line = orc Fortress Wall
Green Dots = Human Naval units

Edit: Birdview of map (see how good im at scetching ^^)

^^
using an old mouse with those balls (sounds so nasty) is hard, specially i it hangs up all the time, and a second look at that scetch makes me wanna place "NSFW" tag at it.

But enough about that.

(im at Work (lunch), thats why i use a scetch and not a birdview map))
