DM's Rule by surpy
The instructions are in the description here. Unfortunately due to me having to redo my entire AI, and to still have problems with it, until I figured out that I forgot to switch an X with an Y, I didn't get all the nice things I wanted to add to it. But it is still a game and still runable.
-STORY-
You are a DM. A hero (F) walks through your part of the woods and you decide to interrupt his quest by sending your minions (E) after him. Stop him before he reaches his goal.
-INSTRUCTIONS-
Use your mouse to place his goal anywhere you wish, that's on the grid. Then place your minions with your mouse as well, use your Left Mouse Button to place the goal and minion. After your last minion (5 minions total) the hero will spawn, be careful, this hero has the ability to randomly kill one of your minions at the start. Use your Left Mouse Button to control your minions by pushing the arrow keys on the side of the screen. You can move your minion by clicking the move then arrow keys in which direction you wish to send it. You can attack by clicking the attack button and clicking an arrow to choose which direction. Caution, you can only do one attack per minion and when you decide to do an attack you can't move that minion until the next go. Click end turn to move to the last minion, or if you are at the last one, then it will be the hero's turn. The hero is so quick that your turn will come up very soon after clicking end turn on your last minion, watch what minion you are on.

I also encountered a bug where I couldn't attack the Hero if I stayed still and didn't move. Some sounds might've been helpful to tell me whether I was hitting or not.
Otherwise, you got the idea right. Good job!
And surpy, he may simply not want to install the game. There are 950 games; if they all had to be installed...
The idea here is solid. What's missing is feedback: Hit? Critical hit? Hero uses potion?
Also, the opportunity to build an actual dungeon would be cool. But then the hero would have to do some pathfinding, so I can see how you might not have had time for that.
Anyway, I had fun. I thought I might lose. I lost minion #5.
