HoN overview and features
Players in Heroes of Newerth control a single character in a 3/4 perspective, fantasy-based world. HoN focuses on hero control and development, and remove the trouble of common RTS games such as base management, resource collection and army building. Currently there are a total of sixty heroes consisting of thirty for each faction, the Legion and the Hellbourne. Most of the heroes now are based on the popular game Defense of the Ancients. More heroes will be available in upcoming patches.
