The download page says most of it already: Download page!

My goal in making this was to create a unique gameplay experience based on air units and high explosives. I don't have any screenshots at this point, so I can't provide them (obviously,) and I really don't know what to say beyond the download page's description and what I already have tongue.gif So download, unzip, place in your SC folder, and enjoy!

I played this, it's pretty fun. Just a note, the sci vessel looking thing is too strong imo. It kills anything that isn't ground, meaning everything besides Gunman and Lackey.

Side Note: It doesn't have to be in your SC folder.

Sci vessels need some cooldown. Too many and you can't move around.

Stratos is a chocolate here in Norway. Bwahahaha! Good mod, only it's a bit unbalanced.

the stratosphere i believe is an area around the sun, or earth, not sure which one.

edit:

lemme guess the units..
QUOTE
    * Lackey--The Lackey is a basic miner/builder unit. Use it in combat at your own risk.
    * Gunman--Your basic unit, the Gunman is a weak warrior with a fairly strong attack. In groups, they can be devastating.
    * Saboteur--Saboteurs, although weak, can slow enemy movement and disable mechanical units or buildings. They have an attack, but it's best not to make them need to use it.
    * Starfigher--The Starfighter can only attack air, but it's fairly powerful and fast. It can also drop Watchers to spy on your enemies.
    * Minesweeper Orb--The Minesweeper Orb is the bane of missiles and mines. When in Turret Mode, it's a detector with a rapid-fire anti-missile laser but cannot move. In Mobile Mode, however, if cannot do anything.
    * Heavy Bomber--An anti-ground unit with a devastating bomb attack that requires ammunition. Look out for Starfighters!
    * Artillery Ship--The cream of your forces, the Artillery Ship possesses huge range, power, and incredibly slow movement and reload. It can also target Nukes.

MISSILES:

    * AA Missile--AA Missiles are designed to take out enemy starships. Fast, with a powerful suicide attack, they are incredibly fragile but deal huge damage.
    * STS Missile--Think an AA Missile, but it hits ground instead.
    * Aeromine--A slow, cloaked mine that explodes big time when an enemy approaches.
    * Cryomine--Another slow-moving, cloaked suicide unit that explodes. This time, however, it freezes all nearby units for quite a long time.



lackey: SCV
gunman: Marine
Sabotuer: Ghost
Starfigher: Wraith (haha spelling mistake!)
Minesweeper orb: Science Vessel ?
Heavy Bomber: Siege Tank
Artillery Ship: Battlecruiser

If I remember correctly, it is where airplanes fly, because it is above the weather.

@ Ermac:

This is almost final, since:

@ Everyone:

I've decreased the Minesweeper Orb's armor and increased its reload time. Also, a couple strings are fixed/changed and the Orb has a mode change animation. Expect V 1.1 to be coming to a DLDB near you shortly. tongue.gif


@ Pyro-Fire:

A) Was there any point to your "Let's guess the units?" Especially since you got three of them wrong and didn't even try, I notice, with the missiles...

B) I do not see a single spelling mistake in that description.

C) Did you even play the mod? I'm not seeing evidence that you did, especially since there's no actual feedback of any kind, and definitely nothing constructive or even useful. I notice nothing about gameplay, balance, or anything else of the kind; I just see random junk.

Wow, this is the slowest download from SEN ever. Even Rush downloaded faster. Either my comp is getting slower, or SEN is.

ADDITION:
WOW!!! This is one killer mod. Just one minor thing, the bomber string for can't attack says something along the lines of reaver attack, build scarabs. I think I would like to mass those missiles, and and the sci vessels. They kick ass! And "Player 1 was pwnt" lol!

The AIs don't do much, except build 2 cities, and 3 gunmen lol.

And I like the ferries! It'd be neater though, if you had to land to load. Maybe not unload though heh.

Sounds just too damn awesome... What do you think would happen if I ran the mpq without the memory patch?
