Use mines, artillery and arrows to win

This is a Hero Arena map that was constructed on the Lordaeron Summer tileset with a size of 64x64. The map features a cool atmosphere with rain, snow and wind and the option to use a wide variety of tactics. It's quite a unique map because you will have to play in third person all the time. This can be a little challenging at first, but, the more you play it, the more you'll get used to it.

In Night Snipers, there are two teams, each one supporting up to six players: - Team 1 - is unable to use land mines (actually, it can place them, but mines will cause no harm to opponent heroes). This team has stronger skills: faster shooting and faster movement speed. The team has a leader (red) with higher stats and who also is able to cast Artillery. - Team 2 - this team can use land mines that cause great damage to enemies. They themselves are immune to mines. Their stats are a little lower: slower shoot skills and slower movement speed. The team leader (green) has stats lower than those of the red team's leader and can also use Artillery (less powerful).

Another interesting aspect about this map is that the attack is done only with skills, the hero has no damage of its own. There are two attack skills: Shoot (requires five mana) and Assassinate Shoot (requires 85 mana). Other skills are: Shadow Run (makes you stealthy, harder to see and gives movement-speed boost), Anti-Arrow Shield (makes you immune to arrows for four seconds), Child Shoot (stuns the enemy for one second), Artillery and Flare.

Killed enemies will drop all their land mines, so it's your chance to take and use them / hide them. If you get hit by an arrow and survive the attack, then you should make a run for the nearest health fountain.

Only the ones who will be able to make good use of their hide&kill skills will survive, the others will become extinct.
