Animeheromaul is a map I created upon becoming bored with DoTA, Hero Wars, and TD maps; I decided to make them into a single map. So the main gameplay is similar to Hero Wars, but without tomes; I designed custom items. The characters are the HiME from Mai HiME and quite a few Geneon characters. There are three types of troops, which each upgrade individually, and you can build towers. Also note that this map is made by me alone. I have had my friends test it, but I essentially did all the work. My towers still need balancing, but otherwise the game is quite playable. Please tell me what you think!
Also, please congratulate me for this, as it is in fact my first map. I've edited a map or two before, but this one is all mine.
Notes:
5 levels of troops, 3 types of troops (Melee, Air, and Ranged (Note that Melee can attack air and has more hp, and each troop type is weak against one of the others: Air beats Melee, Melee beats Ranged, Ranged beats Air. Also, all troops get an elemental effect at level 5.))
Item recipies (I designed them myself, along with the items. I did this through the GUI only. The recipes are not, in fact, supposed to make much sense.) Yes, I know the components do not add up to the final item (Sort of. Hard to explain.). And yes, the system is a huge bother. That's exactly why it's there.
Towers of many different kinds; I wished them to be like standard tower defense towers, but have not gotten around to balancing them (My major weakness.)
Vision towers work as banks, but you have to be careful.
Assassins spawn ice and poison simultaneously, and are extremely dangerous.
Hero max level: 100 (But if you make it to level 60, you're an idiot.)
You can buy an Inventorian from the Regen Shop to help you with your item recipes.
Computer players will play. It's not really AI, but they still play, and heroes are good xp.
Be careful what you do. You lose all of your gold on death. Also, the map's size requires more care to be employed as to when you attack/retreat.
