*Myth Units: From the Minotaur, to the Cyclops, to the Colossus, to Frost Giants,
and Fire Giants,
*Looped Gold Upgrades: Infinite Upgrades to get Gold much, much faster!
*Special Units: Make special units, already beefed up for battle (only over all upgrades effect these units) and ready to counter any enemy: Huskarls, Priests, Hypapists, & Toxotes.
*Infinite everything: As much gold as you want, as big an army as you want, as mighty or strong an army you want, and anything else.
*More than half of the entire map is the Battle Zone: this is where the chaos will take place.
- CONS/BUGS -
Hundreds of Messages in the Chat:
Every time you buy anything it will tell you what you bought, and it will tell you if another player is buying special units.
Speed:
If you buy a whole lot of speed your hoplites will fly through things and onto cliffs, into ponds and heaven knows where else!
Just try not to buy too much speed.
Lag:
If you are playing with 4 players and a lot of god powers start to get used, plus the massive armies it will get laggy.
This may vary depending on your type of computer and its operating system.
Placing Prosperity:
If you buy a gold upgrade you will receive a certain number, depending on how good that upgrade is, of the prosperity god power (to make mining faster) and gold related upgrades and the quest var modifier will fix them up to give you more gold.
BUT, you cannot place the Prosperity God Power in the shop, or where you get gold because of Griefer-Resistant statues, so you must palce them elsewhere on the battle field or in your box.
It is the same no matter where you palce it, but you will have to move to another location to use it. This might get annoying.
Prosperity:
If you buy a gold upgrade, you will get a certain number of the Prosperity god power to use depending on how better the upgrade is. I think that if you use 2 of them at once it is no different than 1. So just use 1 Prosperity at a time.
FIX: Just use 1 Prosperity at a time.
4 God Powers:
If you have bought a gold upgrade and have Prosperity, then don't buy 4 battle god powers. Only buy 3 because the fourth will become your last one and that one will disappear for ever. You will see what I mean if you don't listen, and you will be angry. So listen and only buy 3 Battle God Powers.
FIX: Don't buy any gold upgrades so you can get 4 battle god powers. Who's gonna do that?
Losing Units:
This may not happen anymore because the Unit Spawn Areas are much larger...
But If you have a giant army you'll have to squish them together because if there is no room your troops will have a SUPER HIGH chance of not spawning and you'll lose Gold.
It is very unlikely, but they may just spawn outside of the box.
FIX: Space your units by the walls to create more room for spawning units.
RECENT UPDATE NOTES:
- Added Relics throughout the Battle field that will turn into myth units when picked up by a Priest!
- Terrain Updates and Fixes.
- Added more Neutral enemies throughout the battle field.
- Priests are fixed/ no longer "invulnerable".
- Minor Bug Fixes.
- Major Bug Fixes.

Playability: 5
Comfortable, no stuns. Howerver, even when I kill 1 enemy hoplite, in final stats it says that he lost 3 units, maybe villager and whatever-it-is bearer are counted?
Balance: 5
You are informed about whatever the enemy is doing, so... No problems.
Creativity: 5
This can be, actually, an 1.0 update. Whatever...
Map Design: 5
New terrain is good, however, red lava on minimap confuses with red player. Very tough.
Story/Instructions: 5
Detailed and clear.
Additional Comments:
Battle area could be even better if it was randomly generated. But excellent anyway. |
