There is always that one game that you will remember, the first one to truly introduce you to online multiplayer, the one that introduced you to mods and their ability to turn a game from you enjoyed to what you loved. For me, that game was Warcraft 3, and with DOTA already a huge success, a new Kickstarter looks to bring another mod as a standalone game.
Legion Tower Defence was a fun game for many reasons, putting two teams of four against each other teamwork was essential. Coming at you wave after wave, you were in charge of defending your teams king, failure to do so lost you the game. With each wave becoming harder and harder, teamwork and planning were essential if you didn’t want your defences and your king to fall.
Unlike a tower defence, the game used fighters who would come to your defence, moving and attacking with everything they can muster to save your team from the inevitable defeat.Why not spend some of your secondary resources, then and hire a “mercenary” to attack the opposing team? Doing so not only put extra pressure on the energy team but also increased your income at the end of each round.
Currently, the new Kickstarter has four legions. The mechanical armies of Mech, the natural assault of Grove, the battle of the Forsaken and the fury of the Elements. While the game will be free to play (and not pay to win), backing the Kickstarter can get you everything from early access and special skins to unlocking all future legions.
I look forward to seeing how this progresses, with the games that used to be mods normally surprisingly success from both a business and enjoyment point of view.
