Better upgrades? Mana? Spells? There really isn't much that could make this game get worse... Only better.

I like arenas better if they're simpler, that way there's less random unpredictable stuff. One reason Yu Gi Oh cards are bad, there're too many things to just pop out randomly and dramatically change the fate of the duel (and in the case of the show, the world).

Another small update. There will probably new versions every day or 2. So don't bother to download it so you don't have to dl on b.net. Download it if you want to host wink.gif

I played a version today with Pacman and you can't upgrade with the Forge. The enabling trick doesnt work. I'm not sure if it was fixed though.

Damn, the trigger is fine. Theres something else in it's way. Can't use pylons either.
Any leads what would cause it to not work?

ADDITION:
*Update*
Fixed enable trick
Added reaver dmg upgrades
Also added new tactic.

Please post any ingame screenshots, I always forget to take some while I play tongue.gif

In fact, the only time I have seen the teleporting pylon/cannon put to use was to block the flag completely.
[right][snapback]393116[/snapback][/right]
If you can get a probe in to their base (entrance) and build a pylon(cannon) and it builds before they can destroy, that's a ticket halfway accross the map. I saw a great play with this. (And I love how it blocks the back passage)

How about raising storm cost to 25?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kow on 2006-01-01 at 18:23:57
Yeah, it's definantly too low of a cost. Would it be normal for a cloaked she-ghost to go into the base and lockdown four units while cloaked? Because that happened. TOTALLY immobilized. Too bad I didn't screen shot it.

Another idea: Since the pylon warping the cannon, when there are units right by it, it doesn't warp, you could have it increase it's HP or Shield and then have standing by it as an official tactic? It would be harder to kill, but since if you stand by it, it doesn't warp the cannon, it would compensate?

Now thats like 160+ energy needed. You have to wait till it regenerates yo about 200 to do it, so it's ok. There is even a tactic related to this wink.gif

I will add it to tactics and add 100 life to pylon...

Dead, how did you fix the enable trick problem? I always have similar difficulties...

Here is another tactic: This is really only for if you are in the small paths around the bases. If you are running with the flag with your probe and you have 100+ minerals, build a pylon in the path behind you so that the units following you get trapped. You can also build the pylons at the entrances of your base to make it so that enemies can't use the paths.

It's fixed? Cool biggrin.gif
I just copied the enable action 4 times, so it enables it all the time and doesn't have the preserve neo.

The tactic is pretty useless, when running because it takes time and they can just shoot you from upper platform. But as a defence tactic it's good, I have seen it few times.


15 ingame screenshots added!!! Thanks to Kow biggrin.gif Check them out!!!

I found many mistakes or glitches
One of them is that sometimes the flag dont come up for red
also there are some unpowered protoss buildings
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Gigins on 2006-01-04 at 16:33:38
Yea, I also remember people playing old versions today wink.gif
Anyway, the unpowered glitch Should be fixed in v0.99, im working on it now.

ADDITION:
Tourney version #1 UPDATE!!!!!

Check it out tongue.gif


Before you say "WTF another version already???"
In this version I finally fixed unpowered bug by just putting pylons there. And remade the teleporter system a bit so it doesn't have glitches since more pylons are in game. Thanks to shocko for hints biggrin.gif

*UPDATE* v1.00t

Want to know why? Because I don't know you, I have never heard of you. And I seriously doubt that you can make my map better by making it bigger. I don't want you to make a mock version of it wink.gif

Besides I will start working on completely new versions of CTF for next tournament in summer tongue.gif
