Create your own starting packs for the campaign!
« on: April 30, 2013, 08:16:53 am »
Hey,

To quicken the beginning, I'm requesting "Starting Packs"(I don't mean item Starting Packs). Player will be given an opportunity to choose his own settings or choose a pack created by players of the campaign. These packs contains everything else than the difficulty and resoures from saves).

A few very important things you should know:

- First of all, take example of template(spoiler).
- All the pages must have maximum of 1000 letters(Warcraft III limit with ability descriptions). Check your letter count here: http://www.mylettercounter.com/
- You can create maximum of 11 pages under the Main Page.
- This not just about the abilities but also the items.
- The format is not just there yet. We'll see how this moves on and updates may come to the format. You may also suggest some!



[MAIN PAGE]

Name: Trip Power

Introduction to your pack: Trip Power is a pack...

Click for additional information.

-> This is the most critical place as player will read this first. If player is interested about this pack, he will open it and read more about the pack. Make the text short and tempting!
-> This is like 'a spell book'. When player clicks it more pages will come.

[PAGE 1]

- This is advanced version of the Main Page. Here you'll right exactly the basic information what is your page about.



[PAGE 2]

- This page is about Phodom. Why have you chosen these abilities? Why this item pack? What are the strong and weak points? What items Phodom should get? At what he will be strong and where he will be weak?



[PAGE 3]

Notes: This submission will change with the latest, stable release. (So next release after 1.9)
This uses the full 1000 characters.
This is going on the assumption that we are also picking the starting packs as well.

Name: Balanced in Trio

Overall Information:

The basis of this pack allows for each hero to support each other in order to become a giant in battle. While each hero has it's own role, this is designed for all heroes to be thought of as one. This will allow survivability as well as be coming very powerful in the later chapters.

Phodom: He is the main tank and disables. Allowing Fradz and Galeoth to do some major damage.

Abilities: Defensive Roar, Impact Flare, Fire Mastery, Flame Explosion, Flame Barrier, Chaotic Rift.
Pack: Paladin

Fradz: He is the sub-tank, and damage dealer.

Abilities: Power Orbs, Scissor Stab, Invisible Strike, Flash Strike, Electro Shell, Teleport Strike
Pack: Daredevil

Galeoth: Main healer, and major magic damage.

Abilities: Seal Of Resurrection, Piercing Shard, Mesmerizing Ice Crystal, Chill of the Frost Master, Glacial Armor, Frozen Paradise.
Pack: Opportunist

- I think there should be more about why this and this item pack.
- Also what type of items for each heroes while playing.
- And why these abilities. What makes them special?

Cannot do that. It uses the max 1000 characters.

Hmm, yes I feared about that.

Hmm... I think I might have changed somethings actually. I just recheck it, and it says I have like 97 characters left. I know when I had it finished, I check and I have exactly 1000 characters. So I don't know what I did to it.

Anyways, I know a way that could shorten it greatly. But at the cost of knowing exactly what it is picking.

The way to shorten it is, to replace all the names (excluding character names) with numbers. Corresponding to the slot they are in. So like, "0,0" "0,1" "0,2" ect. That would reduce the character count greatly. But it would make it a lot harder for players to understand what is being picked.
