Suvival Games

[Sureshot]

i want to try a party survival game at some point, where each player gets a hero and some weaker units, then tries to survive the longest with raging barbs on, and maybe one ai deity civ

Actually if you can have any hero what about Mishabur of Dis or the Mithril Golem, or at a minimum Sphener/Mardero? The problem I see is that heros are all different tiers and in-between tiers.

Maybe Gilden would get a contingent of elite elven longbowmen to help him out, while Sphener would be more or less a loner. Avatars would probably have to be outlawed...

could do something like, no religious heroes, and your heroes base strength plus the strength of all your units must add to X, or do it based on production costs

We could do it like many other Survival games for warcraft 3. We have a shop at the start of each player. You start with a dummy unit, and at the shop you get to buy a hero, and troops. You could buy the most expensive hero, or a cheaper one + troops. Maybe even promotions.

Once you buy a hero it replaces the dummy unit, and you can start killing enemies. (No cities just barbarians and scenario based enemies).

The scenario could create waves of enemies. And you could get gold for every enemy defeated and you could buy more troops, promotions etc.

Reminds me of the Barbarians! scenario, only vice versa. I like the idea

I guess it would pay off to make the scripts mod-independent, so that you could convert it to any mod by just changing some XML-files (units/promotions you can purchase and their price / enemies and their bounty).
