There is already a chess map. It was made by GoldenUrg (I think)... I don't have it though.

I think there is more chess maps, a friend of mine said he had a couple and we played one of them, it sucked.

all i'm saying is that if someone WILL make chess verbatim on SC, he/she'll have to do locations for every piece and locations of other pieces corresponding to current piece like pawns moving diagonal to attack but straight to move... think about it and that's a lot of locations! if anyone does have an already-made chess map, could u post it?

lmagine a bound/battle in which doing a bound of your choice will give you a unit. Use the units to fight another player. Each bound can repeat, the harder the bound, the stronger the unit.

"magine a bound/battle in which doing a bound of your choice will give you a unit. Use the units to fight another player. Each bound can repeat, the harder the bound, the stronger the unit."
Nice nice idea.
Anyway...
This would be hard to make, and hard to play, along with stupid, but it's an idea...
A fighting game where the people are stick figures, made of Pylons.
You use a Hive to spawn units to do attacks and stuff, and you have to look at the mini-map to see what people are doing.
Where do I think of these stupid ideas...? huh.gif

Its hard to see the action when the minimap can refresh so fast. l never liked the idea of using a hive since you have to select the larve too, which would only slow things down. A barracks or gateway is what l recommend.

LOL. I might look into this idea. I probably wouldn't make many attacks though. Maybe an animated rock, scissors, paper. tongue.gif

BArracks or something might be better....
but Hive has 9 selectable units! (=

I'll Upload one to the data Base, Chess is a legendary map man lol. Its made by the same person who made GUedit ( GoldenUrg )

Im not exactly sure what your talking about (other than using buildings to cast things) Anyways a Hive is restricted by the rate the larva spawn. I think the best method is using a drop ship. You can load 8 differant units and reload it quickly after every use. (ask me if you need a sample)

You can't really run a Dropship with hotkeys. And you can only load 8 different SMALL units. tongue.gif

good point, was hot keys the whole point of the conversation?. Sorry I didn't figure out where this segement of the conversation started so I'm jumping in blindly.

Hotkeys are faster and easier.
Instead of using your mouse to go over to "Select Larva", and selecting the unit you want, or selecting individual larvae and clicking what you want, both of which waste precious seconds, you can hit 1, S, Z, or perhaps 3, S, U, or whatever. The numbers being for hotkeying the building itself.

i had a few ideas, but i never finish them.

one idea was sort of like a defend the temple/ assault the overmind. you start out with one 'commander' zergling at the temple. your job is to defend it from the onslaught of the incoming hordes. to do so, there are many cliffs with ramps spaced out across this 128x128 map. on each cliff are two neutral tanks and a turret. you temporarily control them simply by bringing your zergling within vacinity of them. since youre only in command while the zergling is around, moving away will revert the tanks back to their neutral state. as the game progresses you will gain more commanders, and slowly advance your men, which you can buy with money earned from killing, and strike at the overmind.

Sounds neat.
One I thought of is...
Aeon of Strife war map. Except make it a LOT better than the other one.
EDIT:
Golems Rpg. I might work on it after Abysmall Reign Rpg.
Anyway:
Pick your Golem's Main BAse Material, either Wood, Clay, Metal, Energy, Cloth, or Living Tissues, pick a weapon, pick a source of energy and pick a method of Locomotion.
If all your choices match, you get your own special Golem!
*sigh*, I'll delete it... only one line long though... \= besides, its premice is stupid, can have decent gameplay...

Right now im working on a Frontier map and an RPG where you go around solving puzzles and such. One my other maps is a Diplo map of Africa. I am aslo thinking bout working on a map that will require over 650 trigs to honor all those American Soldiers taht have died in iraq.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by .Coko[CK] on 2004-04-27 at 13:35:54
How about the few thousand innocent Iraqis killed in the cross-fire? Be a bit harsh not to include them!
Shouldn't be too hard to do the triggers, mainly repetition...
Here is an idea, Counter Strike fully created, including different levels, i am thinking around five levels for fighting, through the skyscraper and cliff usage, and using the Cloud and Ceptor to fire shots, which depend on the choice of weapon at the start of each round, though it would be a FFA, not the normal CS since that wouldn't be that good.
The only problem is the speed of the shooting, which could also be limited by choice of weapon, likely by either having only four players and computers to take players over to stop them from firing a lot, and limiting the cloud to single shot, or limiting hte mana level so pistols can fire more.
Also use a Barracks for possible change of weaponery, from Grenades to Knife. What do people think?

l already made a map called Halo Arena. You play in a 3rd person locked view, and you have to switch weapons in order to survive. You get 2 primary weapons and knives [Which really dosnt match Halo]
