Ok, im making a new map called Town Wars, basically what you do is.. try to kill the other team.

NOW that may not sound very exciting, but I have unrefusable proof that you will like it, before i showed my map to Shmidley (AkA : Salacious(U)), he was fixed on the idea that he was going to hate it... here's his reply AFTER the game!

[attachmentid=7760]

I'm releasing the map soon! Hope you enjoy it as much as or more than shmid.

Omg you've got the most critical person on SC to say he likes the map! Therefore it must be godly! All hail Kow. uberwoot.gif

Also could you post some details about what the game is actually like, such as objectives, background information, gameplay.

hmm.. more screenshots about the game?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kamikaze.Kow on 2005-04-13 at 22:29:00
Im hoping to post THE MAP in 24 hours or less... but sure!

The map basically goes like this, you play an SCV (Mayor) and you build your town to rival the other team's town.
The thing is, different buildings and units turn into different things...

For Example:

Command Center --> Gateway (Bank) = +1 mineral a second
Missle Turret --> Photon Cannon (Defense Turret)
Vulture --> ???
Wraith --> Arbiter (???)
Science Vessel --> Observer (???)

Anyway, things turn into other things.... There are also some other elements to the game, considering lack of minerals in the begining.

Now it starts getting tricky, because kills give gas, and gas is worth ALOT, so you if you are on the defense you get more gas, but dont have the freedom you need.... and are always on the defensive. Then again if you continually attack your enemies inflicting minimal damage to them, you will just be feeding them and they will in turn upgrade and destroy you!....

Anywho, the game is basically like melee except elements of the game are changed because of the way you get minerals and gas.

Hope this gives a little more insight to the game!

ADDITION:
I just re-read what i posted and apparently i dont have very good grammar, and am not good at explaining things. disgust.gif

One question, how will you get the protoss buildings to be powered after you create them?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by chuiu on 2005-04-13 at 23:06:41
Did you ever get the cannons to work? I really don't see a practical way of integrating cannons into your map. I still think you should use either a sieged tank or a disabled tank.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kamikaze.Kow on 2005-04-13 at 23:38:14
ya i got cannons to work and banks, cannons are there because turrets supply no defense whatsoever...

Alright, i BELIEVE the map is finished and totally unglitched.

If you DO find any glitched please tell me, i have added the map below!

But before you all download this UBER map let me give you some advice on how to play,
First of all, BANK = GOOD!
Secondly, dont lift any of your buildings, they WILL not come back (except for the command centers in upper left corner) and you do NOT get a refund...

and lastly (if lastly is a word), Be kind to people playing it, if they have questions tell them.

Here's a list of FAQ about how to play! tongue.gif

Q : Do more banks give more cash?
A : Yes, 2 banks give 2 minerals a second, 3 gives 3 minerals, ect.

Q: How do you get gas?
A: Gas is determined by your kill score.

Q: What buildings and units change, and into what?
A: 1. Command Center --> Bank
2. Supply Depot --> 3 Marines and 1 Marine Captain
3. Wraith --> Cloaking Shield (Arbiter)
5. Science Vessel --> Recon Probe (Observer)
6. Missle Turret --> Defense Turret (Photon Cannon)

Q: Is this a fun game?
A: Why yes, yes it is.

There you have it! FAQ for my map!
P.S. Please inform me of any glitches you encounter while playing.

Me = Shmidley
Me thinks this map sucks now. Good triggering though.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kamikaze.Kow on 2005-04-14 at 22:02:29
me = needs to fix some things DO NOT DISTRIBUTE OR DL ANYMORE! :/

I have to fix some things because idiots give me bad suggestions! pinch.gif

Anyway! dont download map yet, give me some time to fix and re-post!

ADDITION:
I had to change banks to only cost 100 mins, and change supply depot problem :/

Here it is... AGAIN!

(sorry about the last 'Release' of the map)
Report, edit, etc...Posted by axblader on 2005-04-14 at 23:06:25
hm...but then, how will you build units if you go over the supply limit? cause you cant build supply depots...(rines)

EDIT:

i havnt the time to play it now, so i suppose u placed atleast 25 depots per person?(maybe less, counting the CCs). or are CCs the food supplies?


EDIT2:

that'd be the coolest thing lol, you never see maps that you have to get food one by one!(i think CCs are 1...).

K, don't do instant build times. I crashed trying to build a medic. I built a supply depot, didn't do anything. Barracks get destroyed when lifted...omg.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kamikaze.Kow on 2005-04-15 at 09:34:36
Ya, i noticed the supply depots werent working for some reason either, i think its cause i protected in starforge and now have to recheck each trigger because its missing locations pinch.gif DAMN YOU STARFORGE AND YOUR UBER TRIGGER EDITING SYSTEM!

Anywho, gimme some time to fix the depots, k?

Anything is destroyed when lifted.... Alas, dont lift anything (which i'm sure i said eariler).

Add -- Ya i did!

How about the medic thing?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by LegacyWeapon on 2005-04-15 at 10:19:32
The safest thing to do would be to set the build time to 4-8 in SCMD2 or SF

Kow, would I be considered an official tester?

Also, you may want to post more information about the map instead of just SaLa's reply to it—so the public can read about it and understand what you're trying to do with it.

...No

Anywho! I think i finally fixed the map for good, (whenever i protect the map it seems to have a strange affect on the triggers and locations pinch.gif)

Hope its all fixed and you enjoy it,

Re-read some of the earlier posts to understand a little bit about how to play! I'm told its a little like diplo, but i think its COMPLETELY different! tongue.gif

ENJOY!

Ah, managed to play the game, as I snuck into a game Kamikaze.Kow was hosting himself. 3v3, but 2 people dropped, turning into a 2v2. I upgraded like crazy, and I had a marine force, wiping out both players. As I was killing the last player, KK thought it would be funny to attack me...wrong move. tongue.gif
