There's a lot of ideas being thrown around about Riot's next game should be, some argue for an MMO, ARPG, another Hearthstone or Overwatch. I thought it would be cool if Riot created a game set in the League of Legends universe, but about a century before the countries and city states of Runeterra worked out there differences on the Fields of Justice. I think the timeline should take place when Jarvan II is ruler and a time when relations between Demacia's allied countries and Noxus' allies are at an all time low. Some of my favorite games were Star Wars Battlefront I and II, (Before Dice took over) and Warhawk, because of the large scale combat and rock, papers, and scissors balance. I would love to play the role of the non hero, the Valoran Bowman, the Noxian Shocktrooper, or the Bandle Gunner. Throw in some Piltover Battle Mechs, Noxian Tanks, Zaun Siegemachines, real time land, air, and sea operations, destructible environments, and the Gears of War 3rd person duck, cover, and shoot mechanic and you would have a masterpiece. It's been done before, yes, but there's and opportunity now to do it better.

The core mechanic of this Battlefront/Battlefield like game would revolve around a couple of different modes including CTF, Domination, and Team Death Match. What would make Warfront Runeterra different is the inclusion of the Siegebreaker hero. What would theoretically happen is that let's say the opposing team was way ahead in a game of Domination, otherwise known as a capture and hold. The team that falls behind would be given the opportunity to turn the battle around by unleashing a hero character/vehicle known as a Siegebreaker, with stronger stats and a larger presence on the field. If the Sigebreaker dies or is destroyed, the enemy team will then be able to unleash their own and secure the win. Just some ideas, I'm going to workout some more gameplay mechanics, character designs, and possible battle maps that would take place in Valoran and other settings.
