Ancient Tower Defence [TP]

OVERVIEW:

This is my modification of the classic Ancient Tower Defence scenario. Primarily, I have cleaned up all the triggers, reduced lag, added a Single Player mode, and allowed the game to progress further.

I have added new ideas called investment bank, gems, nukes, magic spells, king counters and builder bonuses. As well, I have modified the classes like Warlord, Wizard, Alchemist, Engineer, and Gambler. There is also a new shop area to buy units.
There are more detailed explanations on the more advanced features in the HINTS, and TIPS section inside the game. If you are new, I recommend you take a while to read this as there are a lot of new features to master.

I am aware there are a few other edits of my version. Whilst I have no problem with people using this as a platform to make their own changes, I do hope that you give it a different name when you do so and not to use my version number to disguise your changes as if they were mine. The latest version from me is v29.7. Hope you enjoy it. Please leave some feedback.




HOSTING A GAME:

I've kept this scenario on the original data set. However it is recommended you host this under the expansions data set. There is one level that utilises the "monkey boy" unit which wont be auto targeted by towers, and you also wont get some of the unique research technologies, if you host the game under the original data set.

To host a game, ensure all players slots are filled with Humans or AI (Player 8 MUST be AI), no teams are set and difficulty is standard. After the game begins, you can boot the AI players using the booter outposts (near monasteries and life towers).

There is a game options area (near life towers) with outposts belonging to the host player 1 (blue). Click on each outpost for a description. Simply delete an outpost to choose that option.

You can play in single player mode - just delete the appropriate outpost in the options area.

At the start of the game, choose a difficulty level and choose the number of kings to start with - again, by deleting the appropriate outposts. If the host does nothing, the default difficulty will be "easy" and players will start with 21 Kings.




GAME BASICS:

There are 7 total players (rivals) and the computer (enemy player 8). Each player has their own area (shallows) to defend.

The enemy units (computer) will travel over your shallows in an attempt to reach the other side. You must quickly build towers to stop them. Later on you can recruit units and heroes, and use magic to support your defence.

If they reach the other side you lose life from your health meter (life tower). If your life tower loses all its hit points (HP) then you lose. Every time you leak (let one unit get to the other side) you lose 1000 HP from your life tower which starts with 15000 HP.

It is mainly a FFA (Free-for-all) game. You must survive the longest out of the all the players to win. You can also play this game as a challenge to see how far you can get!

As time goes on, the levels will get harder and harder. Faster, more health, and more armour on the enemy units. You need to balance between upgrading your economy and upgrading your tower attack.

At the start, you also have a choice of Character Class (see below)

There are a total of 12 levels in this tower defence. The units will not stop coming until you die.

NEW FEATURES:

New trade mechanic. When a player reaches their trade limit (50 carts / 40 cogs), all of that trade system will be removed and instead the player will receive 150 gold every 5 seconds as a replacement. There are two separate tributes loops, one for carts and another for cogs. This greatly improves the performance of the game!
