The aim of the game is to hit the ball to the other side using a zergling... the more times you hit the ball will make the force stronger.
Map Specication
-::- How would you play the map?
To make this a new kind of ball game... you start with a zergling to hit the ball and everything but u must also heal yourself every now and then cause the ball will be on fire with a new effect just like in hen ball 1 where you had invisible photons attacking the ball... didnt do any damage to you though but in hen ball 2 im using cloaked bunkers with firebats in them to attack the scourge(ball) which in turn makes the game harder as you have to dodge the flame that trails the ball.

So I'm just curious, did you actually, like, read the post Hennius made regarding this new map? Because if you want to get technical, the unit you hit the ball with is a Zergling and you could make some sarcastic comment about how they, too, can't hit scourges.
Or you could realize that perhaps two ground attack-only units means the ball that is being attacked is also a ground unit while an air unit is constantly hovering over the attacked ground unit...

I'm not entirely sure what to think of this map, it sounds somewhat simplistic and un original but that may be because i can't visualize it. You'll have to let me test ok hen? ;D
Addition: change from dark red its hard to read >.<

Here's a quick synopsis from what I got from Hen's post:
Each player controls a Zergling. The Zergling is the unit that will "attack" the ball to move it.
In HenBall 1, he had a bunch of cloaked cannons attacking the ball at all times. This time he wants cloaked bunkers filled with firebats to attack the ball.
On top of the ground unit acting as the ball will be a scourge (I suppose this will make it easier to recognize as all the bats will be going crazy with the attacks on the ground unit).
For his added bit of originality, Hen decided that the players' units can be affected by splash damage. So unlike SolarBall where the players can attack each other, HenBall 2 allows the players to be attacked by the splash damage of the Firebats. This features forces the players to abandon the ball for a few seconds while they heal.

Well apart to all comments... the firebats will attack a burrowed unit that follows the scourge
gives the effect but thats not all im planning on doing... with power ups and stuff like that you also get certain spells like slow down enermy's hehe
screen shots in today.

Yeah, imageshack is the best when you just want to host some simple images on another site without wanting to keep them in a photoalbum.

ADDITION:

Hmm not bad looking. For some reason I was expecting a lot more bunkers filled with 4 firebats in each. I think its only because I was used to the pandemonium in HenBall 1 with 798143 cannons all shooting at once.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Marandule1 on 2006-10-18 at 22:54:18
i might increase the amount of fire inflicting on the ball and players.
ill try to fill gaps in but remember to cloak all those bunker in the fastest time possible. obviously i had to cut corners soo... thats the result for now.
ADDITION:
almost finished all
just need sum decent music to put on it.
ADDITION:
there wont be any need for testers sry guys but as its quite nearly finished.. playing the full thing should be even better just need sum damn music -.-
