Hi,
I think that merging the best of Warcraft and Kingdom Rush Frontiers could give birth to a beautiful game. Even several games (from ancient, modern and futuristic era) by several authors, very different from one another (because each author will have his/her own emphasis and ideas and creativity). I use a working title KiwaRuft for this idea (from KIngdom RUsh and WArcraFT).
When I say "Warcraft", I mean something very general - any game similar to Command&Conquer or so, simply a 4X RTS.
Why to take inspiration form KRushF
There is something very appealing about Kingdom Rush Frontiers:
My vision
Gameplay
So I imagine a game where the player has to explore the map, find several locations where a gold mine can be founded, and then to split his or her forces amongst several tasks: border skirmishes, massive attacks, exploration and defense. If gold deposits are uniformly distributed over the map, then inevitably some of my mines will be far from my main army and my defenders cannot be everywhere, so raiding remote fascilities can be an important part of game.
My vision is deliberately inconcrete in some aspects, because it can materialize in several games, mutually very different. For example, the game can have a complex economy like Mars Colonies, or it can have a pleasant learning curve like House of Wolves (where many things are instant and yet the resources must be planned well ahead). Etc., etc. - I imagine that every author inspired by this vision will put his own ideas into his or her game.
It is important to ensure that in the later stages of game there are not too many units on the map, because I think this would spoil the transparency of KRushF which we want to achieve here. I can imagine several solutions, for example allowing (and motivating the player) to create large teams of units, represented graphically by one unit + number.
And of course, the difficulty setting should be fine and unlimited.
I will gladly elaborate more details if anyone is interested.
