A new DND DM map

It's been... way too long since someone has made one. People make rp maps all the time though...

Here is currently what I want in the map I'm working on... but I need some help with the hero spells. Also, any ideas you think should be added. If you come up with a hero spell, describe what it should do. E.g. describe what you want out of the triggers? I will not be useing vHP or anything crazy, so keep that in mind when coming up with spells. If you think the special ability upgrades that you get from say... the convert ops is good enough to count as a hero ability spell, say so. Problem with those is that when you lose a level, you can't lose the ability.

Can set upgrade costs or potion costs or inn costs

Important Buildings:

Universal Inn
Universal Blacksmith
Universal Potion Shop
Universal Seer's Hut
Universal Castle

10 Teleports per DM =====Used for "Custom" teleports.
10 "Universal" Teleports" per DM. (Universal means it goes to a common point.)
CS Teleports. Heroes and DM need to be able to enter/leave own ship. May make the
Air To Air or transports units useful. Corsair, Valkrye, Devourer, Overlord, Dropship, and Shuttle. DM Will have to give heroes their CS.

Cast "Hero" spells on Hero (H) units they create. Can only have one hero of each type as a DM.

Custom Boss Spells (Centers on a Boss (B) unit and does it's effect.)

*Shifter (Randomly Teleports around on occasion, making hitting it difficult for heroes)
*Critical Hits (Randomly does 3x damage, Spawns 2 invulnerable copies of it's self???)
(Need more ideas?) Requires Computer to be not allied with them.
*Scarab Splash (Surrounds the boss with scarabs that randomly attack stuff) (Upgradeable damage!)
*???
*???


Hero Abilities (Need help here?)

7 Classes (5 Spells or Permanent abilities per class) (Stargate Casting System)
Mage - Tassadar
Warrior - Zealot
Priest - Medic
Thief - Kerrigan
1- Disable Traps
Ranger - Ghost
Paladin - Vulture
Druid - Hydralisk

Enter/Exit their CS. Heroes share a CS.
20 Levels
Purchase Potions

Minerals = Gold and Forced upgrades (When you upgrade your weapon, you get forced to upgrade it. Also, when you get a special ability like Zealot leg enhancements get forced to upgrade that.)
Gas = Mana

Players get those abilities, and is highly recommended that you ROLEPLAY for any others. Rogues won't be
able to pick doors unless the DM allows you too...



--------------------------------------------------------------------

Version 1.0 will be mainly a template. The template will have all the requirements for a basic DND map. Heroes leveling, monsters, the Universal buildings, the 3 CS's for the DMs Players. That is all that will be done terrain wise. It's up to other people to make the terrain.
Version 2.0 will be whatever terrain I create, I'm not an awesome terrainer however.

Would adding an "Evolves Mini-Game" be worth it to keep the heroes mildly entertained while the dms construct?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Oh_Man -- whereas just "press X to get 50 health back" is pretty mindless
[2024-5-06. : 5:02 am]
Oh_Man -- because it adds anotherr level of player decision-making where u dont wanna walk too far away from the medic or u lose healing value

Oh_Man -- initially I thought it was weird why is he still using the basic pre-EUD medic healing system, but it's actually genius
