Field of Strife. My other idea...

by **ConanTheConquerr** on Fri May 30, 2008 11:36 pm

This is another map i would like to see. Obviously bigger and can support 8 players. It's an elimination map but one that requires a large amount of troops to break through neutrals on each color's bunker (10 at least maybe more). Meanwhile keeping the other side in check by bombards (both on towers and other resources). Each side will find it best to keep their neutrals and defeat their opponents to storm their base.

Basic overlay :
* Players start on GY 1-2 or Mine 1-2.
* 46 territories / 3 zones ("continents") / up to 8 players
* Bases will start with 5 neutrals, Bunkers with ## (10-20 idk yet), and all others with 2's or 3's
* Mines are worth +1 , and a mine and a supply is +2 (so 2 mines and a supply = 4)
* GraveYards are +1 for each one held (so 3 graveyards would produce 3 on EACH GY)
* Towers are +1 and bombard opposite towers.
* Bases are +5 (auto deploy) and can bombard any Forge.
* Bunkers are +5 (auto deploy).

This is the 1st Draft :

Let me know what you think about it or any issues it has. This will please Crom greatly.

It seems like an interesting map to play on; reminds me of one of the Halo multiplayer maps. Big problem I notice right away: you can't have people starting on either a graveyard or a mine. The mine players get no initial bonus, while the graveyard players do. That'll make the first few turns wildly imbalanced.

I think i changed enough to not offend Blizzard, but i don't know for sure. i'm looking into that.

As far as the bonus' thing, i was thinking having the mine +1 and then +2 after a supplies are conquered.

Thanks again guys for the support.

I've been in contact with Blizzard to get the ok to make this map (with or without some features. I'll keep checking up on this to let everyone know how it's going. In the meantime..... i need feedback. Is this a map anyone would want to play ? Any changes (other than the ones i already added under the map)? If you like at all ? I may need CC's support to convince Blizzard to OK this idea.

The conversations with Blizzard are still ongoing..... i still need feedback however...a simple "i like/hate it" or "the neutrals should be more/less" or anything regarding game play.
