I am planning on making a new defense map where there are levels, i have really been thinking about this one, i came up with a couple ideas
Just like every other defense map, i want the units (levels) to travel the same path between the players
I want the players to be able to buy units and buildings that are placed next to the path
I want the players to be able to buy units using civilian and using them to buy a unit with how many minerals that unit costs
Havent really thought about how the units are going to be, but I figured I would use most of them especialy the most used ones
2 Marine = $50
1 Ghost = $40
1 Super Marine = $150
1 Super Ghost = $115
1 Goliath = $70
1 Super Goliath = $150
2 Hydra = $60
1 Lurker = $100
1 Super Hydra = $180
2 Goon = $80
1 Super Goon = $140
1 Templar = $150
1 Super Templar = $450
Air also, havent thought too much about them either
If you have any ideas about anything, that would help

Kinda seems like alot of defense's out there, maybe you should add what type of terrain your using the map size and how many players you want availble.
Just so we can give you ideas on how to spice it up
Maybe you could add a certain map size that hasnt been used.
Maybe you could use the black walkable terrain to walk on water.
Mybe you could add something that makes it diffrent (ie. Random Units you get, Random amount of Levels you get total, Random unit spawn when bought.
Or Maybe your could have a multiple defense were once you defend one base the next one is under attack and so forth

Yup, sounds plain and simple, just like any other defense.

Sounds like any other defence.. You should think of something new that people didn't think about.

How about making it able to build an Ion Cannon that can shoot (by trigger) as a defense tower?

Maybe you could make a different sort of defense. You don't buy units, you get a hero, and you level him up, and maybe buy "special attacks", (like spells in an RPG) and stuff. It would be sort of like an RPG-defense. Man, its been like 3 months since I posted here. I might re-install Starcraft (
