Dam Builders!!!

Storyline: While marveling at this one dam that was once quite marvelous, you realize that it has broken, and a tidal wave of not so marvelous water particles is heading at you.
OH NO!!!

Your only chance of survival is to reconstruct the dam before the water floods the rest of humanity. (AKA a small corner in the map.)
Maybe you should have taken some lessons on how it is easier to simply save people from a flood than stop the flood from reaching people in emergency situations. It is near physically impossible to rebuild a dam when the water just broke through it, not to mention how you have no construction equipment.
You really ought to save the population of the town, but that doesn't matter now.
The only thing that matters is to gather those rocks and confine the water back to the top of a hill. (Which is a stupid place to put a dam to begin with, but there are lives at stake!)

About the Map:
- It is a strange defense, in that your units do not stay still, but rush to fight the enemy. (So it's not really defense like)
- There is never a stop from the onslaught of the water.
- Watch out for places where water overflows and goes down other pathways.
- Actually uses extended terrain.
- Has super cool secrets that might turn the tides in your favor.

Why not post it in DLDB if it's finished then? Sounds funny and fairly interesting; I'll check it out. Wondering what the "water" is, of course.

It's not protected; you could check it yourself. It's a Zergling, by the way.

Because I don't care enough about the map to even put my name on it. :crazy:

That and it was simply an obscure test map about unit movement. (That I don't think many people would use.)

That was very mean of you to put that friendly unit killer spike up the middle path. > > Suddenly they started flooding through the middle while I'm doing other work and taking it easy... psh.

5 scarab reavers were questionable =P high armor/hp/size at least though. Pathing AI was annoying. whee. Funny enough for a couple runs tho.
