Crazy Tank is a map where you just kill tanks for 10 minuets [Basic Idea]. You are given a limited amount of minerals and 1 marine used to kill tanks in the center area. Killing 1 tank will be replaced with 2 until you hit the limit. At that point, you are to destroy the tanks mindlessly until the competition is heated up. You can buy 8 diffrent units, but the original part is the limited amount of units you can buy total. This part is known as Upkeep, upkeep is the amount of income in minerals you have versus the amount of units you have. At 4 supplys [Death counter] you would have full upkeep, meaning you will recive all 3 minerals per tank kill, at 8 you will recive 2 and finally 9 and above will only give you 1. At that same time, l want to find a way to implant a commander style-hero system that allows your commander [You] to level up at certian kills and use special abilities [Summon, destroy all, whatever]. Sounds good? Nope, l am safe to say that the game can get boring [Just watch explosions until times up]. Right now, l have a nice spot on the map that is open for all of your ideas.

Seems to follow an RPG upgrade follow system, with an increasing effect the higher your level. Wouldn't it be better for balance that it is easy to upgrade or get more at beginning, than later, since if you get there before someone you will jump ahead of others extremely fast.

So all you do is kill tanks for 10 minutes? That don't sound that interesting.

Seems like the kinda random insanity that blood maps are. *shrugs*
Sounds like something I'd think of...
Anyway, it's much better than some things people do...
Instead of MArine, it should be you choose.
Like, you can either have
Marine- Rapid-fire, low damage but U-238 shells.
Hydralisk- Rapid-fire, medium damage, no range upgrade.
Dragoon- Slow-fire, HIGH damage, range upgrade.
Zergling- Rapid-fire, low damage, both speed upgrades.
Zealot- Moderate Fire-rate, medium-high damage, speed upgrade.
Firebat- Moderate Fire-rate, HIGH damage(due to concussive-type attacks), stim packs.
And have each one have unique spells.
It would add a small amount of thought and choice to the low-thought map, I guess.
