LOL! Ferral, I was one of the first people to download it, play it, and feedback on it.

Well I was the first person to play it.. Aside from volc. >.>; And I *ALMOST* beat LoK 1 and 2. 3, I kinda got close. 4, is glitchy. 5 is fun though! XD!! I won't give away anything though.. -CoughInstallationcough-

4 isn't even done yet, dummy!!

I think they sorta figured out its an installation from the description on the 1st post.

Speaking of Lok 4, expect it in a day or 2.

I just played 2, and then tested 4 with Volcove himself, and I dont know how else to say this but this is without a doubt the best campaign Ive seen. Its fun, yet challenging. A campaign where you cant just mass the best air unit and beat the map. Definately a must-play!! Good job Volc!

To Vodka -
What on UED?

I just brimmed over it -.-

Anyways,
I wouldn't consider this the best campaign, but possibly the best non-blizzard created one, and I haven't even played all the missions yet! Not even the ones I've got :\

Well of course the blizzard one is better. I cannot include character voices and cinematic sequences after all, but still...

Yeah, poor soul got pwnt on LoK 2. His guardians kept getting pwnt by like single wraiths, quite funny.

Also, I think I cursed him. Anytime I went afk, I came back to see an expo dead >.<

Oh yeah, LoK 4 is now posted & ready to be played! It might be glitchy tho, so alert me of any major issues with the game. It, like the rest of the posted maps, can be downloaded from the first post of this topic.

Anyways, heres some pointers for the first-timers whom play this:

• Artanis is a powerful scout, use him to your advantage!! Just don't let him die
• The map is quite large, and is strung across a series of smaller space platforms. You'll need a strong air force to succeed.
• The constant minimap ping in the center is where the "unknown entity" resides.
• Your beginning geyser has very little gas in it, so you'll have to find a new one early on.
• Although you must be offensive, maintain a strong defense in the process, or you'll be wiped out quickly.
• For the fleets in stasis, they are usually deep within enemy bases, so don't worry about them until later.
• Just try and try again if you lose.

Edit: Gah I found a major glitch, so until I fix it, the map is no longer available. Shouldn't take long to do so...

Gee thanks. o.O

Oh, and Volcove, don't forget about what happened with Ivan when he played LoK 4(Artanis getting run down by scourge in the first 5 minutes <_<)

That actually happend....??

He must have irritating the zerg a hell of a lot for that to happen. Did he mass zlots to an outlying base or somethin? I totally 4got

Yea, he went to take out the first zerg side base, and then a fleet of scougre came rushing out and slauterghed artanis..

O.o thats so freaky

By the way, I prolly wont be around for the next bit. Inet problems plus I'm in the process of getting a better service, but due to massive complications, I cannot be around. I'm using my cousin's comp 4 this.

I'll continue working on my maps every so often tho. LoK 5 is about 70% done, the prologue movie is 50% done and LoK 6 is under way

P.S. If you don't play this, ur n00b!!

These maps are incredibly hard. If you enjoy microing, this is the type of map for you. Hence, all Team Micro Arena fans, play these maps.

A lot of the times I oppose campaigns made by members of SEN. Why? The majority of them are bad, either in layout or in story; just doesnt give off the vibe that real effort was put into it.

That said, and after hearing the feedback on this, Im gonna give this a try.

Must... keep... topic... ALIVE

I am back now and unfortunately, I have been neglecting my map making. I'm back now so I'll try to work on it.

hmmmmmm welcome back volc......anyways after the "Issues" that occured i hope we can put it past us......anyways

LOK = Fun yet annoying at the same time.....if u dont have the patience for it dont bother.......and if u cant micro better then a ant vs rain have fun trying to beat this

right.....

Wewt?

looks fun

How many people actually beat the campaign here (the broodwar one)?

Hi there!

Well, I must say it's a great campaign for the looks of it. I've tried the first two missions and I think it's greatly done, though excessively difficult.

I'll just point out two things: The Terran Dominion as we know it never included the new Broodwar units in their army, only the UED did. I say it because it was odd to see Medics and Valkiries in the 2nd map, and I must say it really hurts when medics help the Black Guard Infantry, they make them almost invincible. The other one is that it's very annoying to complete the mission objective of "exterminating the whole Black Guard". I mean, even if a cloacked ghost survives, you still have to kill it, which makes the map even longer. IMO the objective should change to "destroy all the Black Guard buildings", but that's just my opinion.

Despite the above comments, the campaign IS really great. It took me a lot of time to get past the Zerg Heroes in the first mission (actually I haven't got past them yet ) , good job. I also liked the idea of the infested Protoss buildings.

Good luck with the new episodes.

See ya!

Richan

exactly waht I'm saying.
how mnay people beat it? I only beat the terran portion...

"How many people have beaten this?"

To my knowledge, 1 or 2 on the first one, and one beat the second, but otherwise...NOPE!NADA!ZIP!

I could beat it, but I'm lazy. Volcove was there when I was owning.

Unlocked by popular demand.

Thank you very much Moose, I appreciate it.

As for answering your questions:



I beat the blizzard campaign, all missions no cheats. The hardest mission was zerg expansion mission 8 (UGH TERRAN + Zerg = EVIL!! )



First of all, technically I'm SURE the dominion would research such medic/valkyrie technologies after dealing with the UED for so long. Second of all, they are limited production, so their use is relatively minor.



Actually, you do not have to kill them all. You simply have to secure the area around the Black Guard command center. Outlying buildings do not effect this condition. However, units do, as the command center cannot be secured if there are still units guarding it.



Why do people find it so hard?! Just micro it out, and you'll have minimal casualties! Usually I can kill the devouring ones without losing any units whatsoever. A good tip is to lure one at a time to a group of zealots (by moving near them, NOT firing them), and remember to rotate out units with low shields. This will preserve your units for much longer.



Well, I have beaten missions one and two personally. I have seen someone beat the third one (I sort of got lazy ), and I came VERY close on the 4th mission (Forgot to put artanis and on hold and he ran off after an overlord, running into like 4 spores = 12 mutalisks in the process). Each of the missions ARE possible though. I've seen harder after all...



Well, Mission 2 tends to be a battle of attrition. They aren't very powerful offencively, but they tend to survive for a long time. Most lose patience, but one must have faith


One more note:

I am almost done with LoK 5 but I need an idea. As you may know, it is an installation mission where you are zerg (Infested Kerrigan is on your side) on a mission to kill Mengsk (at least thats the part I'm working on), but whats a cool way for the battle to be like? I need some ideas!!

Thanks in advance

He runs around and steps on beacons that randomly active traps The trick is that you can also step on these beacons. But his bodyguards are attacking you and distracting you.

Interesting idea... any others?
