I am going to create a new Rpg called Powa Within.

Status:
Tileset: Twilight
Players: 5-6 Players

Story line:

in the year 2060 a Nuclear war begun between the prottoss and terran, around 2062 the war became silent and small terran tribe rose from hiding.( tribe name raken ) the Nuclear war created gas and mutated the People into mutants, they sided with the zerg and kill everything in there way.

Aim:

The aim is to destroy all nuclear silos to stop the zerg and mutants from using them, and to activate the Psi Disrupter by bring the data disks from the silos.


I hope to finish it soon but i need some good ideas for special effects.

Units able to "level" up and become more powerful units instead of just giving them minerals so they can upgrade, of coarse DO let them upgrade attack and defense.

Make the story line a little deeper, such as when the silos are all destroyed create some kind of secret mission.

You could also add a difficulty setting.
For easy set enemy health to 50%
For medium set it to 75%
And for difficult set it to 100%

Also instead of people just going out to kill everything add something that they would have to defend.

Make it possible for players to recruit units. Or to buy extra lives (Always helpful).

Not to be rude or anything but...
Hasn't the Starcraft Thing Been done already? And not once or twice...OVER 80 TIMES! Maybe it'd be more appealing if you changed it out of a starcraft storyline, and of course give each character some BIO or background and story. Or maybe they're just a group and you add a lil more story in it(as stated before). I say this because i was intrested somewhat...but when i saw the title being POWA Within i just kinda thought in my head...he's new to rpgs and will use a sc storyline... And pow i was correct. There's nothing wrong with the Sc storyline to add onto, but it usually bores the more experienced players of b.net. And for you to make this an rpg it'll probably take some real hard work, learn to the special effects on ur own, maybe dl a map where someone did a tutorial on basic special effects, and you mess around with your triggs a bit. That way your map will be your own acquired Knowledge and you will probably customize it better.

But all in all I like the basic story plot you have so far, try starting on the map and getting some screenshots. Hope you do good on it smile.gif

Why spell "Power" as "Powa". It makes it sound like you don't know how to spell. It certainly doesn't make it sound cooler.

I just started to look at this thread because i'm bored... Trust me i was staying away from this because of name... Story needs to be WAY better... So far is sounds like jsut another hack and slash game... Not very appealing.

For one, if you want anyone to take you seriously, please spell check and use proper grammar and puncutation in your writing. It doesn't take that long, and we're all not in a hurry. It's alright here and there to cut corners, but don't blatently talk on message boards. That's why we have EDIT...

Second point here, the storyline could use a bit of a revamp. I mean, why would protoss use nuclear warheads? Compared to the technolgy of the terran to protoss, the protoss could just glass any planet they see fit. The zerg don't even need nuclear silos, they have so much guys they could just send armies to conquer planets. I mean comon, I don't think normal zerg infrantry could even operate machinery let alone nukes.

For the record I didn't say anything about Powa Within Being stupid, i just said it sets an appearance as if you're not an experienced map maker. Not that I don't like the slang, and when you post a map thread on SEN it's for advice/ feedback, good or bad, as long as we arn't abruptley making rude comments about U then you shouldn't get upset, take our advice, or reply about it in a way to show you were offended. Maybe this works for you or maybe it doesn't, but all in all goodluck on the map and finish it. Then when you make another Map even BETTERER!

P.S. I need Minerals!!! sadangel.gif

I noticed any map with Starcraft involved don't know how to change unit names, or don't know how to put color into words...

RPG is playing as one person, not commanding an army...

Yea,

you can make nearly any map you want on sc but the only thing that stops it is the trigger range. sad.gif

I know who to ask for help tongue.gif

Uh, what's the "trigger range"?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Spikes345 on 2005-02-10 at 16:30:20
you know you can only do so many different triggers.

i can think of some that you cant do...

It just needs a better story. The only rationale behind having your mutants is you want the Terrans and Zerg on the same side; you could easily find a better story for that reason.
