  1. Fellowship of Heroes (Working Title)
  2.  
  3. A "Tower" Defense/RPG Hybrid where the player collects/gathers an army of units which they then place like towers at specific marked points on a map to fend off waves of enemies.
  4.  
  5. Units are classified as either Heroes (a unique character) or Non-heroes (randomly generated mercenaries). A non-hero unit has a single randomly selected passive ability from a pool of class based abilities, whereas a Hero unit has both a passive ability as well as an active Heroic Ability (which has a cooldown and must be activated by the player manually when available)
  6.  
  7. Killing an enemy earns gold (which is shared between the player and the unit) and also earns exp for the unit, when a unit gains enough exp it levels up allowing the player to add 5 points to the unit's stats and make them stronger/better. Hero units have a level cap of 10, non-hero units have a level cap of 5.
  8.  
  9. Hero Units stay with the player/fellowship permanently once bought/hired whereas non-heroic units can be "sold" back to the hero camps to make room for new recruits.
  10.
