Story Line
In the middle ages many forms of magic were used. One of these forms was conjuration. By calling the dark forces of Hell one will be able to Summon creatures to do his bidding. However this practice like many other magical tricks were look down upon by the hierarchs. Those who practiced magic were killed. Now legions of warriors stand outside of the darkened temple. You, as a Necromancer shall defeat these soldiers with your magic.
Objectives
The objective for You(the necromancer) is to defend the darkened temple until the portal to hell is unleashed, it will consume all of the mortals in its path thus enabling you to win.
Map Specifications
Dimensions- 196x92
Terrain- Ice
Players- 6
Sounds- Maybe
Computers- 1 Knights, 1 darkened Temple
Gameplay Features
Necromancer System- You can create dark swarms to summon creatures using TuxedoTemplar's system(thanks) You can summon 3 types of creatures and also Bombs.
Choices- There will be 2 main choices, Legion where you will have a lot of summons or Elite where your numbers are small but you can Upgrade
Secondary choices- You can choose what type of summons you can create; Elemental, Undead, Melee, Ballistics, Magika, or The Swarm. Each type has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Levels- This will be a RPG/Defense game, similar to Racoon City by Panzer Kavalier. You will be able to gain levels that will increase the amount of creatures you can summon or the amount of upgrades. There will also be bonuses like +energy and Plauge.
Additional Information
Although my terrain is nothing spectacular I created this game for a fun new experience. Please tell me if there is a game like this out there.
If you have any comments or suggestions please post them.

DarK lol not Darc.. That may just be like one of those special things people add because they think it's cool or rebellious to misspell things intentionally.... Whatever I like it too I especially like the idea of getting to mass or be smaller, but more upgrades 
. Every option I get just doubles my interest in the map, more options makes it seem more realistic. I'd love to see a map that gave like 2^256 different options :-D.

Yeah i wanted it to be differnt from other maps so i made it so that you are evil. This hopefully should be a very fun map due to its options/missions please give me some suggestions to make this map better. right now it seems pretty bland -_-!

Well... can you give a little more clear description of exactly what everyone can do? I think I could help more with more info.

Olright you are a necromancer you basically defend against the good forces of the medieval age. There are several events that will take place including missions/bosses/reinforcements from both good and evil sides. the darkened temple is huge taking up 3/4 of the top map.
should i make another version where the attacking force is human controled?

Human Controlled would have to be weaker, because humans are smarter so they don't just send troops straight on they use micro and stuff... This map sounds nice, I still don't completely understand it, but I'm getting there.

sounds good to me wait i got 1 thing unclear and i bet it becuase i didnt read it well enough.

There are 6 necromancers all player controlled. There is 1 allied computer (darkened temple) and 1 enemy computer (Knights)
I almost forgot this map is done is 1.5x-2x speed so that means faster mana regeneration

meh i always like more enemy then 1 kind... becuase like the first few waves can be with this type of enemy but then the like later waves can be some other player which is upgraded but the same unit
get what i mean... I mean its same unit but they get harder and i think you need 2 different type of player for this.. which means less work for you also
unless the 6 necromaners go with your story...

It actually looks pretty cool. It has a pretty neat terrain layout. It's blocky but it looks almost like an old rpg game, where things were blocky. This could bring a new look to the traditional rpgs if you pull it off right.

yeah i will have several waves with differnt types of enemies of course getting stronger and stronger. i will also try to let the computer upgrade(understandably of course) this will hopefully be more challenging.

yea yea thats what i meant..
is it possible? i bet it is but i dont know how to do it.. how do you make computer upgrade...

Im not sure if itl work its only a theory but you set the AI to insane or whatever. Then you give him enough minerals to upgrade. this should let the computer upgrade what he wants.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by RedNara on 2005-10-30 at 18:38:20
that might be possible..
yea make it attack needs 1 mineral armor is 1 gas.
make it so he cant build anything else and put it on insane.. then he might upgrade on his own

Olright im almost done with the terrain but its feels like its missing something. Can you guys tell me what should be placed in a darkened temple?

discribe a little more what you gonna have there and what you expect lol
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Sie_Sayoka on 2005-10-31 at 03:36:44
zz olright so basically there is the front walls, after that there is a mountain-wall thing, then there is the court yard. having 3 water falls from the 3 medicinal springs. the water falls go into a sort of underground water system there is also a statue-island in the middle of the court yard. the last place is the sacraficial chamber, on the top of the last mountain. i need more things that a dark temple would have ex. uh... like a librairy where you get upgrades from. it has to be practical though or something that looks really cool.
