Footmen VC
Footmen VC is a balanced, fun and challenging game in the style of Footman Frenzy.

Purpose:

Footmen VC was designed with three goals in mind:

- Balance. Other FF games have masses of badly made and imbalanced heroes, stupid tiers and ridiculous items.

- Fun. Because of massive balance, creative and grammatical issues, other FF games are never as fun as they could be.

-Challenge. When all heroes and units are balanced and attained in an interesting way, the game becomes more challenging, expecting players to play well, instead of play dirty.

Focus:

Footmen VC focuses on the armies, using heroes as support for the army, not the other way around. By including mercenaries, upgrades and spawn upgrades, FVC becomes a strategy and meta focused game.

Features:

Footmen VC changes the FF genre in big ways, using interesting features to enhance each game.

- AI. FVC features fully functional ai, so you can play a game any time.

- Leaver protection. FVC doesnt punish teams that suffer from leavers, allowing players to take over the armies of players who leave the game.

- Randomized items. Shops in the middle sell completely random items, adding a variable to the outcome of games.

- Randomized mercenaries. Players can purchase mercenaries from mercenary camps to supplement their armies.

- Random and Picked hero modes. Heroes can either be randomized or picked.

- Unique heroes. Custom heroes are unique from melee heroes, with exclusive and interesting spells.

- No tiers. Players will advance their armies by researching new unit types at their Research Centers.

Problems and Plans:

Many new heroes planned, from the Banshee Queen (summons a horde of shadow children, which must been slain before the Queen can be hurt) to the Nerubian Webspinner (Burrows into the earth, allowing him to move by enemy units undetected and at great speed)

Mercenary types will be added in every version, a massive number of mercenaries adds to replayability and adaptive thinking.

Help and technical messages arent complete yet, but will be when the foundations are ready.

Mode voting will be added in the future.

Some problems with using ai and leaving a team slot "open".

Custom icons have some issues (No disabled version)

Small hero glow issue

Typo... lol.... hadnt noticed that in the month ive been working on this....


Rising_Dusk: Completely random letters, they just happened to be the initials of your mapping clan... actually, not even bullshitting...

EDIT: That typo actually works in my favour... the mind whispers will be satisfied if I ask you to change the thread title to FVC, because "C" is a random character....
