WIP Chrystal Ruins (feedback appreciated!)

[Advena]

Hello there!
This is my newest project, started a few days ago. It should be said that this map isn't yet playable as intnded.
Please feel free to open it up in WE or wc3 and have a look tho :thup:

Chrystal Ruins

Short description of what I've got in mind:
-4 players, FFA. Will maybe enable alliances later, but for now it'll be 1v1v1v1.
-All players have a Chrystal Tower that actually is a Hero, able to cast various spells, research upgrades, and get items for all-map-auras and other stuff.
-The goal is to capture the "point" in the middle and hold it as long as possible. Every three seconds that it's held by a player all other players' Towers loose 1 life.
-Last player with more than 0 Life wins. Simple as that
-The 4 normal playable races (selectable in the join-screen in wc3) decide what units you get (will be elaborated below).
-3 units for each race, with at least 2 upgrades tied to each unit.
-A herolike unit that can convert the Apocalypse Chrystal in the middle.
-Remade Hero Attributes to fit the Tower better (look in the screenie below)


Look at these screenies so you know how it currently looks.

(the example above shows the Human starting units)

(the minimap in the standard loading screen)

(The Apocalypse Chrysal, as seen from the side)


All races (Human/Orc/Undead/Night Elf) have an Embassy (main building except for the Tower) where you train units and upgrade them.
Counting the special mip-point-capturing-unit there are four unique unit types with one ability and two upgrades tied to each.
Every time a unit dies, the Tower owned by the same player as the killing unit gain 100 exp.


I'm of course open to suggestions and thoughts, and I'm very eager to hear what you think about the whole thing! :thup:
Any ideas/questions about something in the map?
Gimme feedback!

I don't see much crystal

Hahaha, really good point mate

That's mostly because I changed he original idea.
But the Towers are still called "Crystalline Tower" and the items the towers can have will be diffrent kinds of chrystals to enhance it's powers.

I'll either change the name or make sure there is a more chrystalline feeling to it
I think a lot can be done by placing chrystal-like doodads and stuff.


EDIT: The name stays as seen in the edited main post there's plenty more crystal around

Sorry for double posting.
I just thought I'd update the thread with new screenshots and a download link to the 0.2wip map
The main post is edited accordingly.

Please feel free to post any comments/questions/ideas/other feedback. I'm all ears!
