Sounds good!!
I think you should get promoted when you finish some like missions like when you manage to pass some bunker you get promoted to general and they give you some troops (wich arent weaker than you) there like your lil guy should become somethin like a ghost with a better gun and keep getting promoted!
I think you should do it since you had the idea!! >=P happy.gif

this sounds like a great idea and i would do it except for two problems im busy with other stuff AND i would probably mess it up unless i really took my time...
so as a review, 1 life, your a weak marine, you get stronger w/ lucky kills, get promoted, command units maybe commandeer a vehicle here and there, sounds good to me smile.gif
(correct me if im wrong on any of the above statements)

Commanding troops and perhaps commandeering vehicles are good ideas that would be implemented.

And who said you can't flee, Kirby?

What I mean is that because the computer is stupid, you might get stuck either up in the front lines, or in the middle of them and are unable to get back into strategical positioning, thus getting killed by some ranged unit.

Oh and to add to i-beat-u's list, we are NOT Rambo!
Just making sure. happy.gif

I made a map pretty similar to that a while ago, except that you were protoss, there were revives, and it wasn't an RPG.

Note that I made this map quite a while ago, and there may be bugs.

Anyways, lots of people didn't like it since it was too hard.

Since I've gotten so much positive feedback, I'm going to go out and buy a new Starcraft and SC Broodwar and make it. I think it will be worth the 10 bucks.

Zerg War will be an expansion of Zerg Games 2.0.

My ground plan is that there will be 10 unique 2 minutes levels for a total game time of 20 minutes. This is 10 times bigger than the original ZG. Each level will have a unique challenge, like one mission, you will reach a medical camp and be healed... just in time for zerglings to pop out underneath you and broodlings to close in from all sides. Another level, you will be walking through a canyon, when suddenly Hunter Killers appear from the sides, and you have to fight through a Zerg Army while under heavy fire.

ZW will feature the one-life idea, and maybe some unit commandeering. There will be 6 human players who control slightly better marines than normal (50 health, 8 damage, 1 armor). There will be one medical station at a half-way point where you heal up and gather computer help.

Hmm i have an idea, as your marine acomplishes more missions and kills zergs, he could get promoted. As he gets promotes he could gain more armor/attack. Like you start off inferior to everyone else, but like in the real army after you prove yourself in missions you get upgraded and work your way up the ranks to becoming superior (not like a hero superior but a little above normal units). You could also make it so once you become superior you have authority to plan attacks on the enemy base, to withdraw units (if your losing the battle), and to have some units follow you (Be controlled by a computer player and act as a "party" ) to do missions.

I cant start on the map yet. I'm gonna ask my dad to drive me down EBgames so I can buy it.

And actually, this will be an open map. Meaning that throughout the devlopment anyone can play it and anyone can edit it and sumbit it.
