Hello. This is my map. Its loosely based on Black and White for pc. Here is a color guide, just so you know whats happening!

Starting Miracle

-----------------------==========================)Information(==========================-----------------------

Demo:Gameplay:
There are four players, each only starts with a god. These gods find a town from the 4 prebuilt ones, then chose a town color. The god must then impress the village enough, so that the god is built a temple. Once the god has a temple, the god may start helping the town. The town is controlled by the AI. After the temple is build the god must chose a Creature. There are three creatures the god may chose from. The creature is controlled by AI, but you can tell it what to do. After chosing a Creature the god may help the town, or go do quests. Doing quests gain the god eather miracles, or believers.


Gods:
At the begining of the game, each player must chose a god.

Expansion: Elemental:
Elemental gods start with all of their miracles, but are limited to a certain type of spell. They're creatures are weaker, but grow fast. IE: Earth god, would have: Throw Bolder, Earthquake, Shockwave, and War Stomp.

Expansion: Expertise:
Expertize gods start with one miracle of the expertize they are, and one choseable one. IE: Defence God would have: Devotion Aura. The gods of this type may use their selected miracles (level spells) and also pedistal spells of their choice. The expertize gods have balanced creatures.

Demo:Random:
Random gods start with no miracles, but can use all of them when they find them. They are not limited to only 4 always miracles (level spells) but can also use pedistal miracles. The creatures of random start strong, but grow slowly.


Demo:Creatures:
I have dropped the Wyvren creature, as getting it to fly wasnt working. The creatures are now: Koilba (Ent), Cubrim (furbolg),
and Quiocin (kodo beast).

Demo:Secret Creatures:
It is possible to find secret creatures in the game. IE: Orcs, and Wyvrens. These creatures, if accepted, will take the place of your normal creature, but will have the exact same level and stats. If a creature is accepted, it will not be available to anyone else.

Secret creatures are placed randomly at the begining of the game, so that pros of the game cant find it once, and be king.


Miracles:
Miracles are powers the god can use. So far I have a couple.
Demo:Fireball = Shoots a burning fireball at the selected unit.
Shield = Blocks any negitave Miracles directed at you.
Demo:Sage = Allows you to view allies towns.
Forest = Creates a forest in the area selected.
Fear = Stops the selected player from going to war.
Teleport = Teleports the god, the creature, or anyone from the town to the point of the miracle.
Truth = Allows the god to know anything about the selected town.

Secret Miracles
There are secret Miracles, much like secret creatures. I wont list any, so I dont give it away.

Enemies and Allies:
A god may chose if they wish to make a selected player enemy or an ally. All players start neutral to each other.

Enemies:
If both gods are enemies of each other, they may go to war. In this case the war buildings have permission to build infantry to attack with.

Allies:
Gods may chose to ally with another god, but becareful. If you ally with a god, the god doesnt have to ally with you.


People:
The god may set the people in the gods town to be: Breeders, Worshippers, Builders, or Gatherers.


Demo:Black and White:
The gods start White, but they can turn Black. When a god turns Black, the town of the god will become evil. The people may use summoning instead of building for buildings, and they may get different infantry.


Towns:
Once you have chosen your town, you may select someone in it, and they are turned to your control. This way, you can only select one person at a time. If you are white, if you issue a building order, all the builders will come and help.


Mystical Weapons/Items:
Mystical Weapons are allignment and town specific. A white town may only have white weapons/items, and vicaversa for black.

Weapons are Offensive, and Items are Defencive. Here are some examples:

White Weapon: Mjolnir:
A weapon, once of the great god, Thor, has been left with this town. This large hammer, when thrown, acts as a boomerang, and does massage damage to anything it hits.

Black Weapon: Altar:
This lost weapon, stolen from the Sanctiums, wields great power. Blasting anything in a 100ft radius, it is a very strong weapon.

White Item: Sands of Time:
This bag, holds the sands of time. These special sands, have to power of reincarnation. Anyone that accquires the sand, is garenteed a second life.

Here are the list of extra things in the expansion:[list=1][*]New terrain[*]More sites[*]New Infantry[*]New creatures[*]New items[*]Secret Creatures Unlocked[*]New Miracles[*]Secret Miracles Unlocked[*]More than four towns[*]New Item Type: Location[*]A more complete dialog menu[*]AI Control[*]Elemental Gods[*]Expertise Gods[/list=1]

Here is the expansion location data:

White Location: Statue of Anthus:
A statue of the creator god, Anthus. It can unleash the powers of the heveans apon the earth.
Most Effected: Black

Black Location: Maelstrom:
A hole into the underworld. Unleashed by the powers of black, it unleashes hell suction, which slowly moves things towards it.
Most Effected: Living

Have you seen the spell working in the Dungeon Keeper MOD? You can learn a lot from it. I loved the game and helping trigger this could be a good challenge so I'm offering to help.

The only thing I will need for this map (that I know of) is spell editors. I need Devour to be called "Grab" and only target allied units, including buildings.
