Art of Defense

Overview

Art of Defense 1.18b is a defense-style Warcraft III map for nine players split into three teams, adapted from the original StarCraft version. It offers six difficulty levels, and the author says the hardest one can still be beaten with other players. The map has 36 items and two heroes, Dark Slayer and Transform. Players are encouraged to coordinate, assign each person a unit type, use the walls and cliffs for defense, and seize the extra gold mines, which require transport bought from the shop. Chat commands adjust the camera distance, and only the red player can kick others, without causing a loss. The loading screen notes that there are two ways to lose.
