Yes!After like 2-3 years I'm finally at BW again!My old cd has a prob and not able to be installed since my pc was reformatted.

Ok,the problem is,now I need some good strats for Zerg and some great maps.
If I get the hang of BW again,I'll go to the Battle.net whenever I can.

I always liked UMS Maps, they are my calling, sometimes, when I get bored (When I play the same UMS maps, or there aren't any good ones) I might play Melee, I much more prefer UMS maps, I mean alot more.

But when there isn't much going on, I look foward to the Good Old Classic Match, that the game originally had, but I Prefer UMS like this: Eighty Percent UMS ; Twenty Percent Melee.

It mainly depends in what mood I am in, if I am working on my map, I want to play UMS maps to see what some other ideas, (I got the Idea from the Cold Room for Fifth Base, and the Idea of the Elevator from House of the Haunted, and the idea for a Skill List from Outbreak)

I like to combine good ideas and make it into one map, with my own added twist, like my current map Stukov's Revenge, there are three classes to chose from, and some Skills from Leadership points, an inventory, some interactions with the Computer Terrans, Cold Room where you get a special weapon, but you have limited time before you freeze to death (Pylon Psi is used for cold effect, thanks to the Map, The Fifth Base). And, of course, alot of WAV files, I have about Fourteen WAV files, but surprisinely the map is only 687KB big, I use alot of theme music to.

Overall, I love UMS maps over Melee, I always have, I always will, I just sometimes like to play Melee, when I am bored.

Ok, I got to stop typing before my hands break off.

Netscape = Mozilla xD

To Aquarian, I highly suggest the Starcraft.org Strategies Database (http://www.starcraft.org/strategies/) to get some good ideas.

Mozzilla rules.It pwns all.

Well,I prefer some good UMS maps.I have enough Melee maps.Most of the UMS maps I download sux.(No offence)

And,heh,yep.Haven't been to SC.org for a long time now.Hope no more cheesy stuff.

*Looks through SCorg's strat database*

Well Fronter,I can give you some ideas for some maps I used to try and make but never done.Such as the one sneaking in a ghost and capturing a nuke silo.Then destroying a Infested Command Center and getting a terran command center inside the nuke silo.Then,nuke the zerg base.

Well,I prefer some good UMS maps.I have enough Melee maps.Most of the UMS maps I download sux.(No offence)Yes, about 95% of UMS maps aren't very good... You see rigged maps, maps with TERRIBLE Terrain (I really hate when people use Instilation maps and make the Terrain look god awful, then I don't care how well the triggers are, as long as they put no effort into the Terrain, then they don't need to be taken serouisly)

Also, I have my own ideas on my map, I added a black hole dimension, which when you are getting the optional Herlion Shield, it pulls you into another "Rift" Then... You die.

I added my own types of Skills which I haven't seen anyone use. I made my walls to perfection, a must of Instilation maps.

I added something I have never ever seen someone do. I have it to where one point you have to go on the computer, control the Goliath and go to Destroys the Power Plants to allow passage beyond a door.

I added some funny parts too... (That depends if you think killing Panzer_Kavalier is funny, though that has no point what so ever in the map, I just added him as a Servant of Duran.

I am thinking of having a beta testing night, perhaps Friday? Everyone who finds bugs will be put in the Beta Testers Hall of Fame. I don't care really how much you play it (Unless if it is like ten times or more) The main way I recognize you is if you find a bug.

There is, however, one major bug, which I can work out if I increase the build time on my units.

Ok... No more talking, I am giving away too much. I would like it if some people would come and test it. (I have also custom music, so press CTRL + M when playing)
