I don't have much to say, other than that a seer is usually an old guy or girl.
Could you describe the items, or are you still working those out?
I assume that the items will take the place of spells in a standard RPG. That would be a possibly unique twist.

I'm still in the process of what items I will implement. The items will be books and such that you'll be able to use so you can do spells, such as summoning, killing everything around you within a certain range, etc.. I'm still trying to find an area in the map that would be suitable for placing the item system.

I have several suggestions for items; if you want to use, them go ahead.

Book of Freezing: Freezes nearby enemy units. (renders them unable to move or attack.) To accomplish this, you could give the units to player 12.
Book of Burning: Creates spider mines, or instantly kills nearby units. Depends on which you want, and fits your map better.
Book of Banishing: Moves nearby units to a remote island temporarily, leaving behind a portal, through which you could either enter to attack them, or run away. The gate will close eventually, and the units will return.

Currently, I have 2 books that work.

Book of the Dead - Summon a skeleton warrior
Book of Life - Sets your health to 75%.

Also, I have incredible ideas for Dark Battlefield 2. So I'll be using a spell book system and I'll definitely consider those books

Map seems nice Fierce, just looks a bit plain inside the cliff area.

Maybe try adding some mud or rocky terrain to it. Just spice it up a little.

Other then that map sounds like going to be fun.

Can't wait till its done good luck on it.

Right now I'm having bad thoughts about the outcome of this map. I mean there isn't many quests, there isn't a lot of spells that can be used, and there isn't much that you can do.

I may restart this map and make my ideas from what was going to be the next map and change it into this.

I have restarted the map and so far I have:

Terrain


Unit Placements
