Endless Winter
Re-opening my "DotA" project that I started last year. Yes, there is a lack of color in this thread, I didn't feel like making it too complex.

Introduction
In the year 2070, the Sentinels, a race of "perfect" beings created by the humans, turned on their masters. The Gods, angered by the humans at their act of playing God themselves, covered the planet with snow, leaving it in an endless winter. As the war between humans and sentinels wages on, heroes arise from the crowds in order to defeat their enemy and restore peace back to their planet.
Details
Gameplay
Each player will pick a hero (out of 8) and will have to attack enemies on only three paths, or "lanes" (it's basically DotA...)
Heroes
I'm still working on names for the heroes. Each hero will have no given name, but will be used on both forces (Humans and Sentinels), each with different names and abilities. Here's a list of units that I'm going to use:
Jim Raynor (Marine)
Gui Montag (Firebat)
Alexei Stukov (Ghost)
Fenix (Zealot)
Fenix (Dragoon)
Alan Schezar (Goliath)
Hunter Killer (Hydralisk)
Devouring One (Zergling)
That's basically all I've thought up of so far
Screenshots
None so far.

It seems like a rip off of sci-fi movies.. None the less, if done right it could be a great map

No it doesnt seem like a rip off a sci-fi movie. It seems like something unique 
. You should divide the heroes to show which belongs in which race. Anywho good luck with the map

Thats too general though. It's like stating that all movies with that concept are a rip off of each other. The main difference is this is a game, not a movie focused game.
Anywho, I meant if you can divide it in this thread.

You can basically just pick heroes from mechanical units

Well I changed the storyline.. I think it's a lot better than before. And the name of the map was changed to "Endless Winter"
Still the same map though.
