i know a long time ago... somebody made a map called Water Wars.... you can play as a custom hero from shape or color, range or melee, etc.... you could select skills that would be custom to your earlier selectsion as if you were melee or range and if you were str, agil, int... he did it though a dialog box so that you dont have a part of the map for this... just made it easier and cleaner for the map....it was a simple aos style game with one exception.... you could either fight on the waters above or on the sea floor... yes you could dive under water... and be in the same spot... if you dive next to an island.... the island would be next to you, like a giant pillar....it was a fun game with tons of potental yet the orginal creator long ago tried to give his game to someone who would want to continue his work... but i could never get ahold of him back then....

i had started my own map along time ago and gave up from frustration but now i have takin a few programming courses... i have a better understanding of the code and yet i think this game could be great and i urge people to look up this game... i want to make something similar but would love some help as well since everyday i am either at school or work... if anyone would like to help me or just talk about some ideas.... it would be greatly appriecated.... tell me your thoughts on this concept or what i might want to improve on...

I remember that game. It had excellent terrain, gameplay and customization. You could be something like air wars or something to the extent. In which people have a pilot who can fight on the ground, or get on his plane/gryphon/flying animal and he fights in the sky.

well i was going to do it with the water and islands.... i love the theme but under water was really fog of war and rays of light and on a dirt terrian... i just need a good terrianer for that... i can do the code for the for fog of war and the dive/submerge.... and i have tons and tons of ideas for spells and that some spells can only be used above the water and the rest can be used in or under water....
