Nice, this is going in AOMI.

This looks like a great scenario. I think it is fine that the zombie can see all the enemies, since the map looks relatively big. Does the zombie have the ability to get god powers? If so, how will you stop the zombie from using frost on an enemy in order to kill the enemies with ease? One thing I could think of that you could add (Not a neccessity) is random events. I also noticed that there is no way to get down from the cliffs by jumping. Maybe you could add the odd dwarf (With no speed and infinite health) so players could jump up (or down) from the cliffs.

But, don't feel obligated to add any of my suggestions, it looks like a great map and i can't wait to play it.

Nice idea. You just inspired me for a scenario
I am sure looking forwards for it!

WHAT NO! I have already started on a virtually identical map. :O

I have on a slightly similar, single player map some time ago. (actually similar in theme only - you don't get to play as the zombie and the map is all the aftermath of a nuclear attack).

ohhhh you play as the zombie...then no mine isn't the same as yours. Only on theme and multiplayer. Mine is more like Bingos.

I'm amazed! Only one day and already 6 replies, originally i was going to have it possible to jump up cliffs as a normal anubite (which i think i will) but it seemed too complex, do you think i should just have a random dwarf walking by or something? And if the zombie uses freeze on the anubie then he'll be able to kill him but the same is for shockwave and anyhow... that's a waste of a godpower plus he was gonna kill him any how. Actually the zombie has a slight speed boost so that he can catch his prey (which is why i added the godpowers). Thanks for your intrest, Protestuir.

Hmm, this might be fun, and it might be good only for a few games before it becomes repetitive. I know it will require a LOT of balancing.



I don't mean to burst your bubble at all, the game looks like a lot of fun, but it could end up the same way that 99% of the Kronos Escapes did.


If you want some new ideas for anything:

The zombie gets a cast of Ancestors when he becomes a zombie. They really have the feeling of zombie minions (they're even called minions). They could be used to corner prey or as a distraction or to scout if you decide to remove zombie free LOS.

Eclipse could be really interesting. In AoM: Risk (which I haven't released, yet), casting Eclipse removes scouting information from the map for a minute, allowing players to move secretly to attack opponents (or allies). You could use similar triggers. If it's set up that way, Eclipse could be used defensively to prevent the zombie from seeing you or offensively to prevent your prey from using GPs that could save them. It lasts a long time, though.

Killing players weakens the next zombie/strengthens the next zombie. Depending on balance of the game and whatever else you want. Also to prevent stalemates, after a while the zombie should probably get a bit stronger each time.


Lastly, there are many other GPs that have the potential to be cool. Meteor, Vortex, Shifting Sands, (similar to Vortex, but requires more skill to use and can be used on the enemy as well), Lure (useful to block paths for a few seconds), Restoration (if the Zombie takes more than one hit to kill you, Restoration could be priceless), etc.

Players could kill NPCs or even each other for access to the God Powers (or relic pickup). You can even set up triggers so players can steal each other's god powers.


I don't know why you picked four really uninteresting god powers as your four. Vision is really crappy on a large map. Frost is probably the most uninteresting (and overpowered, because you can Frost a Zombie and then everyone is bored for 1 minute).

Nice showcase

I hope you'll host this online when it comes out

Thanks alot for your reply Forbiddian, it has really shown some light on how much more I need for this scenario. I will probably add the minions, which would have no attack and would scout out the other guys. The reason i chose those 4 godpower however is because, vision would allow you to see where the zombie is, freeze is overpowed i suppose, shockwave is perfect, and spy is to spy on the guys. The other anubites can't see the whole map though.

The problem is that it's so much weaker than every other GP (especially unbuffed). It only provides 20 seconds of detection and you might not even see the zombie.


Actually, when you pick up the relics, do you get all four GPs in a package, or randomly or do each of the relics correspond to a GP?

If it's all a package, then it's probably ok to have a bad GP, but it would suck to work really hard to find a relic that is useless or basically useless.

Looks like it will be a fun and dynamic scenario to play.

I hope it will come out today but due to lack of interest it may be posted phoned to a later date. Sorry, Protestuir. Due to the fact that on second opinion, this scenario in my mind needs a little extra. I will create a new and improved version whit Nottuds random map creator, I will name it something like Zombie Wars II:________ Any ideas?? Thanks, Protestuir once again.

looks sick
