New Story:
In a large kingdom there were 7 powerful weapons created to stop the forces of evil around the large kingdom! The war began and people died of this... only a few kids were left and the weapons were stolen by a human who could't control the power... and the power overwhelmed him he was controled by the weapons.... and the weapons fell in the wrong hands and killed other towns raided everything with his powrful army!
6 months have passed and only 3 kids were left to stop the chaos....
This is a bad story

Try to add some things like stealth, etc. for a unique gameplay, ive seen so many stories where it is all hack and slash, if it was real life i would rather be stealthy and sneak by rather than run the high hance of getting killed in a fight.

Add cut-sences that are funny and serius for the story to make people enjoy the story....
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Urmom(U) on 2004-09-20 at 19:46:09
for the cut scenes to explain the story i was going to unvision everyone and then play some like final fantasy or zelda music and display text 
ADDITION: ok i think i have a good story line:
im going to do the weapons thing only instead of seven there will be 2 or 3. It'll start out with an intro on the evil leader betraying his friend for the weapons. then ittll be like "meanwhile in the village..." and show the town. the evil guy will be on a rampage killing everyone and the 5 young heros escape the village before being killed. little did they know that the guys forces were all around the countryside so il ad a bit of stealth like shadowsnipe said. then you have to kill the guy and destroy the weapons.
hows that sound?

Add this to the story 1 of the 5 people has the gem of power which can make any type of weapons more powerful then anything and the crazy people who have the weapons want the gem from them...

urmom, change your map making skills to beginner... average is for people who can make complete playable maps, and advanced is for people like (u)bolt_head who can make an entire bound with two locations: "Anywhere" and "the other location".

I thought your original plot was good. But maybe only for a movie perhaps. Emotional maps are jsut wasted on BNET...

well i could maybe add ammo but i was going to make shops for u to spend your money. yea your right about the emotional story thing.

A golem builder hero (SCV)
You build buildings and when they're done they turn into golems (vultures, goliaths, tanks)
This process ensures that it costs nothing to repair your golems.
I got this idea from Dungeoncraft 3 (a map by Moss_snake, I forget his full account name)
