Arena Guild Arena: the BattleChasers v1.1

[Darkwing]

The vast city of Utopia lies atop millennium of conflicts, congregations and betrayals, peace and wars, overladen with monuments of past carved both in stone and flesh. The Guilds within City are bound by the "game of throne" each claiming the rule over the other Guild in its own manner. Now after almost century of peace that was protected by the "Pact", the new era of struggle is slowly drawing near. Rumors circle the city from the Kaos slum-taverns, across the fire pits of Skarana, over the libraries of Zycra, through the most inner circles of Verdana glades, across deserted roads and wastes of Ahkrep up to the Aspire bell towers, that the pact is shattered. With the rivalry and tension between Guilds brewing up, slowly both Heroes of old, and young upstarts are rising up to once again chase the battles across the territories of Utopia. The only thing that remains now is that YOU chose your favorite amidst the many who have entered the battle already and ask yourself...

Which guild are you?​

I strongly recommend for all those new to the map to read the Game Info (F9) or check out the official map website www.guildarena.co.nr at for full explanation of the game, it's feats and new stuff.

Me and my testers have done the best of ourselves to remove all bugs we spotted, so if you find any bugs, syntachs errors, find explanation ability, hero etc. confusing, or if you have an idea, constructive critics, or WANT to join our team, please contact me.


NEW FEATS IN v1.1:

DESTROYABLE ENVIROMENT: The surprise additon
-Thanks to Mile Rizik who started modeling just recently, you can now utterly destroy whole enviroment in GA. He created and animated models for Archways, Pillars, Columns, Torches, Braziers, Skull Piles and Statues.
-However due the complex thing of creating such good Destroyable Enviroment system I've implemented the simpler system
-The new version will feat this more complex system for sure (I'm half way there making it)
For now the things you should know about the system:
-All of the Enviroment Destructables have set amount of hit points so that they cannot be destroyed early in game. Destruction starts approx between 10-15 min of the game when full scale asskicking between the Guilds begins
-Not all abilites can destroy the Enviroment (lol hels sure cannot)
-If your Hero has Army Crusher or Ground Breaker equipped he can destroy the enviroment near the target he is attacking
-Also if your Hero is near the Destructable when its dying your camera will shake as the Pillar, Statue, or Archway..etc. falls to the ground

New DUEL:
-Now duel ranges from 1v1 to 6v6 based on the number of players in Guilds. Also the bugs of the previous duel have been removed, this duel rocks. The skill of the ones of who achieve Immortal Fame Rank will be tested in duel of type Immortal vs Guild where you fight alone against whole enemy Guild.
-Features new bet system with old commands. Fixed the bug where you could bet more gold than you have.
-Added "-finish" command which can be typed when AI's fight duel to randomly kill one of duelers and finish the duel so you don't have to wait for them to fight.

New SCOREBOARD (Multiboard)
-Features all of the major game stuff up in the MB.
-Show scores of both Guilds in the title.
-Also shows the duel countdown if duel is on
-Show the pending time of all reviving Heroes

Consumable artofacts such are Pots and Net.

-Both teams have 3 flags (one in base (5 points), one in the crossroad in front of the base (3 points), and one in exit (1 point))
-Each of the flags carries a certain number of points to your Guild when you retrieve it to your base
-The limit of the points needed to win the game can be changed with -cl ### command where ### is the number of points
-Only one flag can be carried at the time
-This is the Experimental mode so pls feedback anything you like/dislike about it

-The "-stuck" command has been changed from the vote command into non-vote command that turns the collison of your Hero/ine for 2.5 seconds so you can leave the place where you got stucked. After that you cannot use it for 90 seconds, so that should fix the problem of "-stuck" abuse.
