Add a Skeleton King builder?
So I was thinking, why not add a skeleton king builder? You could have the little skeletons the trolls spawn as your main units, which wouldn't cost a lot and you could basically just spam them (I.E quantity>quality) and they could be upgraded into tankier versions with more health/damage later.

You could have a skeleton archer (clinkz basically) and he would be upgraded into a stronger archer that could use flame arrows and possibly even splitshot.

Then for your mage, you would have pugna obviously. You would upgrade him and he would eventually gain nether blast, or life drain or something.

Paths for unit upgrades would be linear, like the human builder but to a greater extent, and the main advantage to the skeleton builder would be that his units don't need food. This would be balanced by the fact that all of his units are generally low quality, but the number that he can build would make up for that (again, quantity>quality with this guy)

So what do you guys think?

We have a good idea for an undead builder that i am working on- albeit workers are not our main priority right now.

the "problem" with your idea would be, that the builder would be very straight forward and boiring.
our next patch will include passives and we want to get a face for every unit

no food cost would be completely imbalanced even if its quantity, and we think that with 23 different units, that is as high as we want to go (human builder)-
t
having even more units doesnt only break the game but also makes the game lag. to many units on your side of the field is also causing bugs, if you dont believe me, go into a lobby, cheat yourself 99999 gold, up your eco and your food and spam units, youll see the problem itll cause.


but other then that i like it. i ahve a good idea for an undead builder tho, so we will prolly work on that at one point.

as i said tho, our main priority right now is wave rebalancing , passives, duel rebalancing and all of that stuff.

Those are pretty much the unit models I'm gonna end up using for undead builder but with some different mechanics, I'd like each builder to really play differently from one another.

Sounds pretty awesome. It hadn't actually occurred to me the lag problem until after I posted the discussion.

Can't wait for what you guys add next though! I don't think I've ever spent this much time on a custom game before. lol
