Anyone are free and willing to get a wallpaper or something for this map? Hehehe...

Changelog:
  • New Hero, Angelica the Rogue Priestess.
    Starfall - Deals great ammount of damage to units nearby, each falling star have poor accuracy, but can be improved with the passives. A direct hit deals maximum damage.
    Blinding Shot - Tpyical hit-and-run for this hero, Angelica can solo single high level creep without much trouble.
    Rejuvenation - Regenerates life based on your current life. With more life you have, you regenerates faster.
    Bear Companion - A powerful summon with many defensive skills, could lead to immortal tanker with proper item such as spell books.
    Forbidden Strength - Greatly boosts the Hero's agility and intelligence, at the cost of reducing damage that you gained from agility (means you gain pure agility with no damage bonus). Great combination with Blinding Shot and certain item that grants bonus damage based on your current agility.

  • Introduced set items:
    The Noble Call - A very low level set item for early game fighting, grants good ammount of early defense.
    The Treasure Hunter - A mid-low level set item, getting this set grants you better chance in getting items from creep and also more gold from the coins.

  • Further quest after the defeat of the Revenants.
  • New map, Wraithbane - Originally named SunWill Village, but was totally in ruin after the demon invasion, now this ground holds nothing but walking corpses and evil beings.

  • Removed Town Portal cooldown.
  • Town Portal now function in 2 ways:
    Single left click - Summon a portal and teleports immediately.
    Double right click - Summon a portal and required manual right click to teleport.

  • Life paying (50% of current life) for casting Hell's Call is properly implemented.
  • Some attempt to fix the creep stucked at circle of power, please do tell me if they still stucks at the entrances.
  • Readjusted dropping level of items (some items drop on lower level creeps, and some item for higher level creeps).
  • Buffed Revenant Boss with higher hit points and damage (again).
  • Increased intervals that base sending creeps to attack the Revenant Boss.

  • Show damage resized to a smaller font size.
  • Show damage lasts 0.5 seconds longer.

    required to equipt different types of belt to change the limit. To view your current

Final Alliance

Project status: In Deployment
Current version: Alpha0.10
Game genre: RPG
Download: Link 1, Link 2

Words:
Yes, I know dropping UAV wasn't a good idea.

Blame that to blizzard, for releasing 1.24 patch that make most of the custom maps unplayable. But I don't wish to make an UAVI either, so I named this map Final Alliance instead. The word Final would actually indicate this is my last project on Warcraft III before moving to Starraft II mapping enviroment.

Enough saying, enjoy the game!

Features:
  • A RPG game combined with a little castle siege feature style gaming.
  • Save (-save) and load (-load) allows you to save your game experience and bring them into next game, with more game experience, more powerful items will be unlocked at your command!
  • Each hero have 5 active spells, and 11 passive skills enchanted in a spell book, by learning the active spells you will gain bonus from the passive spells with different combination of spells. (That make up to a total of 16 spells)
  • Creep system - Totally randomized respawn system, different creep might spawn for the same creep camp, never think that "Oh this is a troll camp, I can easily handle this, and suddenly you shouted - OMG WTF A DEMON!" *sound of flesh flying around* and you get killed.
  • Random special feature such as stone skin, extra strong, spell resistance, and extra fast might get enchanted to certain creep when spawned.
  • Multiquest system - You can finish off the game with various way, like helping the evil kill the goods, helping the good kill the evils, or simply just whack up both party, it is all in your hand!
  • Advanced inventory system - Each hero are allowed to carry up to 4 main page item, 16 backpack items, and also 20 equipment slots, which make up to a total of 40 item slots for each hero.
  • Advance Potion system - Potions triggered, they will heal based on the hero's stat, e.g: Strength hero may gain more life from using health potion, while high Intelligence hero may gain more mana. All the potions stacks!
  • Drag and Drop combination system - We are getting bored with recipe system in many games, so something new have to come out, and here's one, you drag and drop one item into another, crafting new items, with some luck you might get some unknown-item that was not listed in the recipe list!

Unholy Alliance in Starcraft II


Blizzard promise a better generation of map editors in Starcraft II.

What can I say, when Starcraft II released, other than playing the game itself, it would be the editor I'll explore next. I'll just pray that it is no shitty GUI editor like Warcraft III; instead, scripting language please, JASS or C++ alike would be nice!

Expect Unholy Alliance in Starcraft II!

Words:
I consider this as a minor update, to test up the set items and runes. Once they are tested to be stable enough then we shall meet more set items with complex mechanism coming!

Changelog:
  • New field of items, set items. So far only one set, Tal Rasha's Wrappings, and they are very high level, only available on creeps above level 20.
  • Added a couple of new items, try your luck in game to get them!
  • New dungeon, located at the last map, very difficult creeps, very high level, don't dream of solo them! In return, they drop the powerful Tal Rasha's set items.
  • New dungeon offers a new mini boss inside, dare to take the challange? So far he is one of the strongest boss around.
  • Slight advancement of the quest, you'll now need to kill the summoner in the middle of last map.
  • Minor tweaks around the skills of the heroes, balancing purpose.
