I am making a new map, and no, the bs does not stand for "bullshit" or "backstab" it stands for Bunker survival. BS is sort of like a defence map, but with many twists, something new. In BS (not final tiltle) There are six bases fairly apart from each other in a diamond formation. The bases are on small patches of high dirt. In the middle of this large diamond, its like a maze. This is where the multiple twists come in. RULES:

1. Each player has a cloaked bunker with 4 ghosts in it, a siege tank, and a vulture.

2. The enemies all come from the middle out, instead of outside in.

3. You dont get to buy new units (may change later)

4. If one player fails, the others can keep playing.

5. human slots that dont have humans in them will automatically be computer players. (not really comps, but hostile to everyone)

6. Interesting effects, like eden, which gives your units invincibility for a short time at a cost of 1 unit and a certain amount of. minerals

Thats all I can think of for now.

6. 7 if you count comp, and 8 if you count neutral and comps.

P.S. I agree with your sig all the way man!

Sure, of course you can help! I could use some Ideas for special effects, Im definetely not satisfied with starting units (keeping cloaked bunk with ghosts though) and The triggers are far from done. Just tell me what part you want to do and ill give you credit.

In response to joemomma and mrmer: Of course i will release the finished product to all the warboards people, otherwise, why would I have posted this?

Sounds cool though I don't really get the idea... Just to survive?. If you need a hand just ask.

Idea: Why don't you leave the bunkers Enabled and disable them as a reward/purchase?

hmm... good idea. I like.

well like i said, its a defence map with twists, and the point of defence maps usually is to survive. I might ebd up completely changing that part though...

New idea, not defence map, have flag for p8 in center, inbetween outer bases and flag is a maze, that is flooded with different enemys (including scarabs :) ) evrery player is on his/her own, trying to capt the flag and return it to there bas for 10 points per capture...

Tell me if you all like the defence map idea, or the ctf w/ maze idea.

There is nothing to stop you from combining the two though. The main objestive is to survive (last man standing) and you can purchase/upgrade units with flag captures.

Ideas:
- Have more than 1 flag on the maze at time
- Randomize where the flag spawns (so players cant memorise a path)

I want a map that means working with your teammates. Not one that you try beating your partners.

I could make it like your suggestion peace_machine, and I could also make it selectable whether you play cooperative or free-for-all.

Yeah it rally sounds cool
Maybe you could put tanks in the bunkers it is going to be cooler

Tanks don't go in bunkers. They go alongside bunkers, though.

You could stack 'em on top, though.

Since when can you stack tanks on bunkers?

anything can be stacked on bunkers in the x-tra editor.

They can? I did not know that. I'll have to try it out! ^_^


Anyways, this seems like a great map idea! It would be alot of work though. Whats your progress so far?

I've completed the terrain and beginning work on the triggers, it will probably be done soon.
