Defend the hive would be an easy first map...

Remember. Don't expect it to be like all the expert maps out there. Just try to the best of your capabilities and learn from all your mistakes.

If you mess up try again... Thats the one reason why I never finish my maps...

I dont follow that rule mellow.gif

Definatly Defend the Hive if it is your first map. It might not be the best of the best, but at least its a good start.

Defend the hive definatley, my first map i tried to make was way to complex and at one point i hated to even try to map. It was to overwhelming for me. Then I sat down and made a few easy maps getting more and more challenging and I advanced in skill.

<BTW> Follow that rule that TheOddAngel said... I really need to follow it as well.

more ideas... I've got alot!

Doing a RPG...
-Use HP level up system
-Spells/Summons
-Buy MP potions,HP Potions and bombs from shops
-Make GOOD story
-Add mini games

Doing a Bound...
-Do a level up bound?
-Use new elements in your bound
-ADD A BANNER Or BIG Problems
-Make levels in the bound easy at first then harder or your bound will be messed up
-Use starforge for terrain

Doing a Defence...
-ADD A BANNER Or BIG Problems
-When a player is gone give all the players his/her units/buildings
-Add a Go Button
-Use starforge for terrain Mostly...
-Heros?

Thoses are the MOST Basic maps you find on B.Net and thoses are tips i made up...

Those might be a bit hard for a new mapper. I didn't make a map worthy of being played on B.net until about my 10th, and it still wasn't that great. But now, I can do really complex maps with ease, just takes time.
