Join my WW2 map making team

I also want skill suggestions too... i have a name for the German hero, Furher.

Do you want more then one hero per side? at any rate i got a few nice skill ideas.

German hero's ultimate is called blitzkrieg and gives like +100% move/attack speed and +50% damage to all units near by (or any level of speed and damage, or lower it a bunch and make it a normal skill)

A normal attack that would be good for both the russians and germans would be political purge or something like that. it's esentialy that basic thing, sacrifice friendly unit to gain percentage of hit points.

A Russian hero's ultimate would do something like summon 6 or more weak partisians to fight for him.

A good british skill would be radar pulse, which is just a copy of the far-see

Generaly the Russians and british should have defensive aura's and the Axis should have speed and damage stuff, and the americans a mix of both.

There is only going to be 1 hero on each side, yes. I was thinking that the heros should have completly different skills from each other, and i dont want to copy original WC3 skills too much. I was thinking that every hero should have a "inspire" skill (basically an aura that is name "inspire blank") For example the American skill would be Inspire courage (trueshot), British Inspire Hope (Devotion), Russian Inspire Fear (Unholy), German Inspire Hate (Something like command aura). The other 2 (Japan and Afrika Korps) im still not sure about. I would also take out generals because of this.
Some of your skill suggestions were EXCATLY what I had in mind. Well, only 2 and 1 wasnt that exact, but oh well:ggani: The Russian ultimate will be called Conscript soldiers. It will summon a number (9-12?) of timed conscripts (the russian special unit). I will also have a normal skill called Execution. The Russian Commissar (name of the hero) will kill a friendly unit to give nearby troops extra damage (like roar). This is simulating him executing a runaway soldier, making his men fear him and fight their hardest so they will not be next to the execution. Once i have 1 more Russian skill I will post it on the main post on front.
Also a good Japanese skill would be bayonet skewer. Instantly kills a enemy unit (not hero or mechanical) from melee range. Cooldown and mana cost decrease with level.
The website is still not underway, but i presume the address will be www.geocities.com/ww2map

well here are just a few spell ideas

Bonzie charge: jap spell thats like stampide.
russian ult: if you really need a name try "russian steamroller" but it was from WWI if that matters.
molotov cocktail: the other russian spell. like flame strike.
chancellors address: heals surronding units or something like that.
enigma machine: german spell like far see. but if your doing radar for the brits this might not work.
voice of america: a % of enamy unit s in an area join your side. problly ultimate.
Bombing raid: brit or usa spell. calls in a bombing strike.

arg! sry all, due to unforseen consequences(school) i will not be able to participatre in this, so sorry bout that...

Thats ok... thx for the help anyways!

Heres the skills you requested. Im still stamping out the bugs in my XP function (it doesnt seem to work of the Bayonete skill).:////. It was a bitch to get the grenade to change height, but overall I like it:D . We just need a grenade model (death animation -> exoplosion) and someone to get teh disabled icons to work correctly (I made some for both).

Tell me what you guys think. (PS try beaconing the map ;) )

Mind you, this is all really rough, but I want to get suggestions before I clean it up abit.

Also, if you like I could slap together a site. I perfer PHP mySQL and XML combo, but what can you want for free:////.

Thank you. Your the one of the only ones with something actually done now :D

And about the website, i am gonna take care of it so dont worry.

Hows the grenade? Im not sure if its what you wanted, but I wanted it to ark in the air, like it was thrown.:D

How the **** will you keep this under the 4 mb limit?

Both the skills look very nice... and very good icons :D
The Grenade skill has a litttle big of an AoE though.

There are a few bugs with the Grenade skill. First, whenever you cast it gives the hero experience, wether he kills anything or not. Also, if you rapidly press the G button and click, you will be able to cast the spell over and over again it VERY quick succesion, no matter the cooldown.

If you are looking for some icons have a look at this one. It is a pack of different guns(not from WW2, but its not a problem at all). If you like them just send me a PM!:ggani:

Thx, but no thx. They are good icons, but since they are not from WW2 they wouldnt make much since putting them in. If you could find a WW2 sniper rifle icon that would be helpful :D One of the Russain heros' skills is Sniper Rifle, so i will need an icon for it.

I have just made a pack of icons of USA weapons during the WW2.... Have a look at them...
1-Colt .45 Pistol
2-Tompson
3-M14 Rufle
4-M1-Garand Rufle

...And one more updated pack of USSR weapons:
1-Maxim's Minigun
2-Mosin's Rufle (original)
3-Mosin's Rufle (sniper)
4-TT Pistol
5-PPS Autorufle
6-PPSH Autorufle
7-DP Machinegun
8-Tokharev Rufle

Now I'm working on a pack of German weapon icons... Then, I have an idea how heroes will heal... Food and madkits will give them Health... Then I'll make some Food and medkit icons for Mod..;)

I have made an icon of Howitzer M1.... Background was remade...
