Gryphon Sanctuary (Base Defense)

(1/2) > >>

Fennor:
This is a Singleplayer map I already built a few years ago, but I never made it public.

Objetctives

Bomb through the mountain to rescue the powerful Gryphon Riders. You need to defend your base to make it to the other side before your are overwhelmed by enemy attacks. The explosives need lots oil, so make sure that your oil supply chain is also well defended.

Unit information:

-Can't build Transport Ships
-Can't build Gryphon Aviary
-Demolition Squad costs Oil instead of Gold and Lumber
-Oil Tankers are very expensive
-Gryphon Riders are a lot stronger

Difficulty

Expert (I think, it is hard for me at least)

is there any special trigger/objective to complete ? I would like to make an enhanced version of this map that have an interesting layout. I can add up custom objectives if that was your original idea. Now its possible nowadays with new generation modding features.

Also, would you allow me to make an enhanced version ?

Thanks for sharing !

Szwagier:
stop making enhanced, MAKE YOUR OWN MAPS

Fennor:
At first I really just wanted to make a base defense level, I made this map a few years back. The bombing part indeed was just a workaround for a timer. But since I built this map around the idea of the bombing I think it works quite well as it is. It could be changed to winning immediatly after rescuing player 3, but I think being able to finally be the attacker after only trying to somehow survive first is a nice touch. If you think you can improve this map you are free to make changes though.

Currently I am working on a different level, project name is "exorcism". You get attacked by humans (are supposed to represent undeads) very frequently, they all have very low hp but high armor and are flagged as undead. Since health is low exorcism is very effective. Maybe it would be good if you lose as soon as the church is destroyed. And maybe only destryoing barracks should be enough. So if you want I may come back to you when the level is finished.

Thanks for the offer.

Btw. can you also change things like damage and cost of spells?

about the spell cost, I can assume you're refering to mana cost. If its this then yes, you can check out Legacy of Dalaran Enhanced mod in link above.

I have tweaked Healing mana cost for example to be reduced from 6mana/1HP to 4mana/1HP. Code is available within the mod files as well for anybody willing to do their own customized mods. All code is on C++ programming language.

About damage, I have to ask to Ed gorod for it. He's the genius that knows how to change something like this.

I will see what I can do with the map you posted in here. Thanks for your creativity.
