It has always been my dream to create a map, but not only a map, a map that could make a difference, help people. This is that map...Flame_Phoenix
Hi guys, this is my map, from clan SOR. I've been developing this map the last 3-4 years, but only now I started working on it due some issues. This map is a Castle vs Castle map, it is by far the best I've ever seen and played. This is the beta version, it has bugs and needs testing.
Summary
This map is a castle vs castle map. Here your mission is to train an army (just like in a ladder game) and together with your team you must defeat the enemy team, by conquering their bases or by killing their enemy king.
My map is a revolution in the area of castle vs castle maps, for the first time, you have custom items, bases and shops, where you can archive the most crazy strategies, and as this wasn't enough, you also have custom spawns and two new races, among many other things.
This map is still in beta testing, which is why I appreciate any possible help for bugs and suggestions.
You are invited to be an alpha tester if you want. You will gain reputation points if:
- You find and report bugs
- You give me good suggestions on how to improve the map
- You suggest spells, models or icons
- If you are a good tester, your name will appear in the loading screen.
Reason's to why you should play this map:
- Has an extensive tutorial that teaches people how to play Night Elf race with a singular strategy that is known among the world of professional game playing and that I developed.
- Unique Items for you to use
- Unique Waves for you to buy
- 2 New Unique races: Blood Elf and Chaos Orc
- 4 new Tavern heroes
- A detailed multiboard with information about the game
- This map is open source, so you learn everything and gain experience
- Every Hero has a detailed story connected to the game (if not it will soon be added)
- An unique shop system that allows shops to travel and shout announces!
My to do list:
- Finish Reward System
- Fix any bugs you may find
- Find a decent loading screen
I am also looking for a team to help:
- If you are a good coder, you are welcome to join
- If you have good ideas on how to improve, you are also welcome
- If you are a good model maker, or know special places where I can find good models, welcome in
- If you are a good Icon maker, or know special places where I can find good icons, suit yourself
Current Team:
- Anachron (terrainer with name on screen!)
- Ciebron (coder, with colored name!)
- Themerion (coder, with colored name!)
- Byaku (icon, model, spell searcher, tester and suggestion giver)
- You can also have your colored name on the loading screen, join the team today !

The Dark Blademaster using one of his super abilities to kill the creeps !
An army of Chaos Orc Units marching to battle. If I was an enemy I'd sure not want to face that !
Here are some scrennies of the shop system, enjoy!
Here we see the shops shouting their announces in order to have customers !
Now we see the shops moving and traveling across the map =)
Here we see the two pages system that all shops have, this means that you can buy a lot of items and combine them!

Here we see the Ranger with her "Shadow Aura" ability ... it's a lot more than you may think, trust me =D
Now we see Ranger's Ultimate. It is my Golem Invocation spell changed and spiced. Those miss texts you in the image do have a purpose after all, download my map to know it! xD
Now here some new abilities for Bandit Lord

In this version the real news are not the new spells nor fixes, but the terrain itself!
To know more spells from the hero, download the map !
Ok guys here is my humble project approved in THW. I know things here in wc3c are very evil and that mods (specially them) are very hard to please, but I really hope you people like my project. It took many years to reach this point however, now I have a need for testerts and balance fixes that I can not do alone.
If anyone is interested in joining the team, be at will. There is also an open source version of this project, you can have by asking it to me.
Among many things to improve, I also need a loading screen (a decent one)... I would appreciate any possible help.
Bumb, increased the description thread of the map, according to the rules (or so I think) xD
EDIT EDIT EDIT
As I said, my casters for the races suck quite a little bit (lol) so I am remaking them with decent custom spells.
The first I would like to fix are the Chaos Orc Casters because they are the worst so so.
I would like to fix the Chaos Xaman, he must have at least 1 auto-cast ability (can also be two), no passive abilities and a total of 3 active support abilities. This unit is an offensive caster.
Please report your ideas in the format:
Quote:
Caster: Chaos Orc Xaman (the red guy) xD
Tier 1:
Auto-cast: no
Description: balblablaablabla
Mana cost: 75
Colddown: 10
Tier 2:
//same thing as tier 1
Tier 2:
//you get the point
Others: some personal opinion you may have
I will credit people if I use their ideas, and will rep+ them in here for making suggestion.
All ideas are welcome.
