i've been having lots of fun with a map i made a long time ago. i started to play it on bnet a month ago. in this map, 6 players fight against 2 insane computers. however, this is no ordinary insane map. there is no insant build which i hate, begin with 50 minerals, and the mineral patches are 2500/4000. this is a very very difficult map, and with each version beaten, if they send me the replay, they will get their name in the map in the next version. and i would also like to say that this map CAN be beaten, because there are usually just a few changes from the last version which make it more difficult. the goal is to survive the map for 2 hours or completely defeat the computers.

i.e. from 5.6 to 5.7, i added some infested terrans.

i challenge all to attempt to beat this map!

...You know that no fast build, little minerals is how bw is played. If you take out all those money maps including Bgh, thats the bw your playing right there.

except that the comptuer starts with a base and the insane ai trigger automatically makes the computer never run out of minerals. i also added some other surprises.

They took 6 and 9 and put start locations at the expo's, then added gas to the min only's and start locations there too.

I find this map extremly unbalanced, it MAY be 6v2, but its just... impossible to do anything in this. Computers keep attacking with extremly powerful units while you are still at the zealot/zergling/marine stage. This can't stand a Infested Terran rush, or earlier guardians and ALOT of scouts and mutalisks and Reavers... It should be balanced better... Defenatly...

number one, it's not supposed to be balanced. number two, it will be difficult, but it can be done. my friend got very close by eliminating the zerg computer and half the protoss base before getting killed by carriers. number three, it really isn't that hard to defend against the infested terrans or the initial ling/lot rush. what's difficult is the lurkers.

Eh i wouldn't play it cause ya gotta play it over and over to remember how they attack. It's kinda like you need to experience the game to win the game. I know other games where i beat it on my first try, 2nd try.

Me and 5 friends just beat this map yesterday. One player left, one player got totally wiped out (no cc's or scvs), I almost got wiped out, just barely survived, one player was nearly dead without money, and the last 2, a zerg and a terran managed to beat the comp with a combo of bc's and hydras, it was a pretty long fight, took us all night 5-6 in morning heh. We saved the replay, but when we played it, it was ####ed up and It showed us making workers, but the workers didn't do ####! WTF MAN IM PISSED! This map isn't impossible, just takes patience and memorization and GOOD teamwork.

I've played and played this map over and over sinse yestarday and ican't get past the lurks. (By the way i played with Apocolypse999, I'm so honored smile.gif ). Could anyone who's got passed the lurks and reavers give me some tips? And just tips or overall strategy? Thanks.

In other post i sed something about replays screwing up, but just to remind you, replay's screw up either cause theres just too many units in the map, or if there is outside triggers that are found in a ums interfering.

Sorry for being... :signofftopic:
