I felt like not working on IGTC for a while, so I'm making a mini-mod called "Inordinate Celerity" (I had to find some initials that weren't taken 
). This mod will involve you owning a single unit at a time, and trying to hunt down the other players. It will be very fast, and the action will be quick.
Some details:
There will be 5 or 6 units to choose from, and each time one dies, you'll be granted the chance to spawn a new one.
The first player to an undetermined number of kills is the victor.
I'll have a demo with the first unit (the "Fire" unit) up soon, I have it almost ready. Probably tomorrow, if I get some work done. I'd finish it tonight, but my parents are making me get off the computer
Just quickly, here's an overview of the first unit:
Fire
Health: 150
Speed: 8 (Per tick, in iscript terms)
Weapons: Fireball (Yamato gun, does damage as it travels), Incendiary Blast (Fires a blast that creates a plague explosion that catches units on fire, also leaves a patch of flame that deals damage to units that pass over it)
Yes, I know neither spell is overly original (well, I've never seen the Incendiary Blast before, but...), but it'll be fun. Everything is subject to change.
Screenies:
These are taken from farther down in the thread, put here for ease of viewing.
The incendiary blast.
As you see, the selected SCV is perfectly fine...
...until he walks through the fire.
OMG FIREBALL!
I have a little more iscript work to do, then some tbl editing, and the Fire unit will be ready for a playable demo

So you're basically making a map?

No... Its a mod... You have an invincible Command Center that you build your units from.

"Inordinate Celerity?" Why not just call it FastCraft?
Sounds kind of like HC but one unit at a time I look forward to seeing it.

1. Remembers me to thos snipers map
whee you battle in teams vs another players, the one who gets 5 kills win 2. Oh yeah pick between all the hero units, and don't worry if you die, you'll be respawned
3. No comments
Anyways, Good luck doing this Can't wait to see the pwnage

Why? There's absolutely zero point in making it a map, unless I really really really want to restrict the terrain it can be played on. Its a mod, so you can play on any map you've ever seen

FastCraft sounds stupid. Hm... I never thought about HC while making it. It'll most likely be a lot faster. It'll be all about fast reflexes, and using your spells to the best of your ability.

It'll be a lot different to a snipers map, because
a) It's a mod
b) It's nothing like snipers
You don't get respawned, you build a new unit. This can mean rebuilding your original unit, or creating a new one to counter your enemy.
I think I'm going to change it from kills to deaths. If you die an undetermined number of times, you lose. Would you prefer kills, or deaths?
Oh, and I'm changing Fire's second spell. Its way cooler now.

I would prefer kills. Trying to keep yourself from dying x times encourages running and hiding over combat.

Sure. Make me a frame and I'll tell you if I like it or not
OH! And by the way, never set a computer to Terran. It'll crash
ADD: Or, for that matter, if Zerg get far enough into the techtree that they try to plague, they might crash too O.o
ADD: And Protoss will crash when... Hell, don't play with computers.
ADD:
Alright, something very strange has happened O.o
Ducky and I were testing the gameplay, (fun as hell, btw) and when we went to rm with a smaller map, the memory patching was gone O.o All the buttons were back to normal! The rest of the mod remained intact, and I became very scared. When we tried to rm again, it crashed O.o
DoA, I need your help!
ADD: Well, it seems you can play 1 stable game per session

I've got some more, I'll get them up later.
K, I'm doing them now, but first let me say: I really liked Double Jeopardy as a 1v1 map in this mod. I highly suggest it!
I was orange and Ducky/Crunch was red.
A narrow escape!
Trees offer little cover
What superb aim.
That was an intense battle. I barely missed him, but he got me dead on
There was one time where we both actually got each other at the same time, but I was too lazy to get a screenie of it.
Trust me, the screenshots don't do justice to it. Its crazy fun.
ADD:
OMG add this to the member list! It counts as a complete mod And add my tutorials too! And my single file mod!
Anyway, I need an idea for a second spell for my Ice unit. I have a sweet first one, Iceball, and I need a support spell. DON'T SAY STASIS!

What unit ( sprite ) is it, what is the iceball like, any themes you're going for? I'd be glad to contribute an idea if I could, I come up with waaay too many ideas for maps and mods that never get used.

Well, haven't you recoded the entirety of FG twice since the last update? So it shouldn't be a problem come 0.88?
