My map is pretty simple... Kill the Archon and all of his lives to win by gathering resources to buy mercenaries to attack. Each player adds 5 more lives which means increased difficulty per player. Of course the game would be pretty boring without the Tornado element. The Tornado is actually a Kakaru that has Arbiter recalls on it that flies around and DESTROYS ANYTHING that is on your team. This adds a sense of fear to the game, especially if you are holed up quite firmly in a base and feels like there is no challenge. I have barely tested it so I hope you guys can provide some feedback

This sounds kind of .... dumb... It is like tag or something? I don't understand, and I don't want to download until I have more details (Besides, my comp is getting full...)

...
It's only 28 kb!

If you have never played Archon Tag ever before, then you are not one of the old SC players...

Basically, it is like the game Cats & Mice. You have one probe to build structures and gather minerals or gas (gas will give you 16 minerals per 8 gas). Once you gather enough minerals, you can decide to either build structures or buy units. With these units, you can fight the Archon. Now there are 2 enemies in the map. One is the Tornado. This is a flying critter, which destroys ANYTHING that it touches. It doesn't hurt the Archon for now. The second obstacle is the Archon. This guy will chase after your probe, hunt it down, and make sure its dead. It does do stupid things though sometimes, like getting surrounded by SCVs, but I have added an anti surround system If your probe dies, ALL of your units die as well. There are two ways to be revived. First is if someone brings a probe to the center gray area. The next is if your revive reaver reaches the end of the revive road. For each player, the Archon has 3 lives, so the difficulty increases with player, resulting in a balanced game.

PS. Sounds kind of dumb? Why don't you try to understand it before you make assumptions? How is 28kb take a LOT of space? No offense, but you don't see any other people who say your maps are dumb...

I just wanted to say, I am an old SC Online Player, so Yes, I have played Archon Tag! Also, Have you ever played a game called Cube Tag? It was a hard to find game, and I only played the "test" version, but that is a tornado oriented game... The name made no sense, but it was good. It didn't become popular because, well, its name. Anyway, It sounds like all you did is combined games!

Last, It is best that you get told to your face that the map sucks then having to hear it from someone you like, right? Besides, if someone said my maps suck, I really would say, "Okay, but that is your opinion!" I mean, that says all they need, They don't have to play it! So, they can do whatever, and if it come popular, then they were wrong...

I used to play tag maps and some were pretty fun... others pretty pointless... once i get the internet hooked up at my house i will download and test it

so how would you know that it sucks when you havent played it ?

Maybe I have....Maybe I haven't...Maybe I'm one of those people who does not need to play a game to tell if is sucks or doesn't! Why don't you just keep guessing...

By the way, here is a clue, I downloaded it!

I am a big fan of the old archon tag maps, good to see some new inovation to the series, can't wait to download.

LOL!!! How interesting, You should have made this a poll. You know, do you like my map? Type of thing!!!

Look, I believe I speak for everyone that here at staredit.net, we don't say YO M4P 5UX0R555!!1 even before we analyze it. We respect each others maps, even if it is simple as my map or to the more complex (Haunted BC). I personally, do not like your attitude and I could flame you all day, but IM NOT, it's just a waste of time. If your here just to post things such as 5UXXXX!, why bother posting at all? Maybe if you actually POINTED OUT SPECIFIC THINGS, I would understand it. But all you can say is SUXXX!... figures I guess, maturity is a rare thing on bnet eh?

If you don't have anything that is constructive (generates discussion with a reason), don't bother posting.

First, I never said it sucks, all I said was it "SOUNDED LIKE A STUPID IDEA"!!! That has no meaning to "It 5UXXXXX." God, besides, if I found something, I would point it out. God, take a chill pill man!

Ya know, maybe I am a really temper person I sleep very late due to my addiction to games... which causes me to fail in school... and always feel tired and irratable... on top of that, I have a test tommorow if I don't pass, I don't graduate high school... Making maps is the one thing I really enjoy and passionately do well... If mapmaking wasn't my thing... what would I do with life

You know, that is odd, because I have the same thing happening today! (I have a test tomorrow! and I love making maps) However, I don't like to get angry, so, I usually keep a cool temper. Also, I don't blame you for making maps, it is fun, and it is a way to pass time! So, nhe, I have no idea where this is going! Just be good and get more sleep, right? I don't know! That says it all, I guess...

btw, you need to make the game harder, and the bird less gay! The bird is the piss off, the archon is just, annoying! It attacks free people and they always can't get out! I do like the Revive system though!!! Just, make a level of difficulty setting thing (More Archons or something) and A timer, instead of killing it!
