Hero Mode

[Torrent]

Out of a discussion from this night bootstraps proposed hero mode. I came up with my ideas for a hero mode.
The hero would be the plane that is OP as in stats are really high and can take on a wave of opposing planes. Minions would be normal strength and the way to win is for a hero to be wiped out then the rest of the minions are defeated from no more spawns because the hero is dead. Oh yeah for the hero depending on their plane they would have a special ability.
Opinions and more suggestions please

Get 3 golds with ace instincts. Bam, instant hero mode.... sorta.

Interesting idea, but I'd rather see Freeze Tag developed than this tbh. D:

+1 for more freeze tag.

Actually, this idea reminds me of an interesting game mode I've seen in other games, called 'giant' or something, I can't remember. (For anyone who is familiar with Mechwarrior/Battletech, it involved a team of Elementals ganging up on a lone 'mech)

In said mode, one player is normal strength, or perhaps even buffed up a bit (auto-triple goldies comes to mind), while everyone else is tiny and has extremely weak weapons. Once the 'giant' dies, whichever mini-player contributed the most damage to bringing him down then becomes the new giant.

Only the giant can score points while alive, the mini-players cannot score. This would be very amusing in larger games, where the lone giant is swarmed by a mass of little planes, but then gets a multikill x 20 with a single mine :>

I never figured out what freeze tag was.

Interesting. I thought about this some, and I think the best way to implement this would be to have an auto triple gold plane that takes half damage from everything be the giant vs 5 regular planes.

unfunny picture is unfunny

Also, did everyone just completely forget the KotH server tec put up a few months ago? Yes, you have the same stats as everyone else but that just adds to the challenge.

Nope. Was about to say that.

Yeah, but KotH is too easy. There are so many powerups... Once the king gets a few silvers, he is effectively immortal.
