Arena: The Contest Hero Chooser

A random PvP team generator for the board game Arena: The Contest (https://arenathecontest.com/)

Instructions

How do I use it?

Just run it in a python shell! There's a simple CLI included in the script.

Why would I want to use this?

It's meant to introduce a degree of randomness in your games, to force you to experiment with heroes you might avoid picking on your own teams, or to simply provide a challenge. Who needs a healer or tank, anyway?

How do I change what heroes are available to choose from?

If you want to use different/custom heroes/classes, you'll need to add them to the existing file in res/heroes.txt, or create your own file with one hero on each line, and each line containing "hero name, hero class" (without quotes). Basically, the format is as follows: hero1 name, hero1 class hero2 name, hero2 class ...

To-Do

• add a CLI demo when run as a script
• add the ability to pass the hero file as a command line argument
• add a GUI
• add Tanares Adventures heroes
