Badlands

This could potentially be awesome... on SC2 ;o

Polls are up. This will NOT be a mod.

The idea is to be as creative as possible. More time and detail spent on just a small area should produce some really nice (combined) results.

I see some of us have come up with some rules, I'll re-post them.

That really wouldn't work out. It's a good thought though.

I'm all in for this. You would have to claim the units you want to use though. Somewhere between one and five units would be a good amount. We'd have to all agree on it though, possibly split the number of units between the number of members participating.

Buildings, doors, gun traps, observers, etc are automatically unclaimable because of their possible use in terrain and special effects, so they can be used by any member. (Renaming of those units to blank).

This should be required also.

This won't be the same as the SEN map in the other forum topic. It should be independant of that thread.

No problem.

Also, please post saying if you will be a part of this map so we can get an initial count of members participating. I'm not sure if you want to participate or not if you just reply without saying so.

More map info:
- Non-player units will be owned by players 9-12. We can also vote on the colours to be used for each player(must be one of the 12 VALID colours).
- Locations can be used, don't use too many though.
- This map doesn't have to be strictly terrain. We could make it like an RP or something.
- There will be at most one computer player. Reply if you have a different idea of allocating the player slots.
- Hyper triggers will automatically be used for all players.

Remember it doesn't necessarily have to be city-scape.

The primary map will be started on Saturday February 14th, 2009. You can start your piece beforehand if you'd like.

On another note, we have 65270 sq tiles to allocate. (256x256 - 256[last row] - 10[last row HUD; 5 per side])

I took badlands and divided for all players, caus i just su>< too much on making terrain with temple...
I am in the project and might start my piece this weekend, but i would like to know fast how much room we will have.

I dunno what tileset I would prefer, dont really care at this point. I can tell you now that their WILL be fire in my base. Locaiton 00 reserved for moving and disabling >:O

The picture is still being modding a bunch. Make sure to leave space for a bazillion version updates.

Has anyone here played Blockland? This is really reminding me of it. It's a lego game, and people play on same servers, usually creating their own houses, ending up in a city. You could walk around, go inside others houses, and find secrets of the other player's houses. I want to play the map on ums, and arrive at someone's house with a display text showing me who built the house, and a quote from the maker.

something like this:
Blu's House
"Beware Of Jerk With Masculinity Issues"

Ok, so then some more things to allocate per member.

+ Reserved units.
+ Reserved Locations (2x number of units)
+ Reserved Switches (2x number of units)
+ Reserved Death counts (2x number of units[your units and one building or unusable unit])

We'll worry about strings if we ever reach the limit.

Longcat must be present

Units that can be claimed as their own:



That's a total of 40 units. I excluded air units, critters, and immobile units to be practical, I excluded air units, cloaked units, and burrowable units to be fair.

The above units will receive our SEN user account names. That also gives us a minimum allocated space of 1631 sq tiles each.
The rest of the units will have generic names that anyone can use. You can vote on the names as well.

we could have zerglings be dogs

like some of the zergs could be pets, and we could even have a SEN Zoo!

u got the polar bear critter thing, ultras are like elephants, and we can figure out crap out too

Devouring one = Longcat
Jimmy = Me

Kekekekekekekkeke I win

I want the EPIC Terran Civilian, N-A-O!!!
And for being part of it... I'll check it out later, for now, I would say no, but who knows?

Psh, excluding cloaked units. Zeratul ftw. Ah well, Alan Schezar is good too.

I want Fenix (zealot) because he is a hardcore motherfucker. Death doesn't kill him.

I definatly got dibs on Gui Montag, he's such a bamf

Fixed allocated space, just in case we get more people to participate.

I would like to enter.
Since it's "playable", what kinda gameplay would it have?
Like, the players get a Civilian in some corner of the map ( random example wut ) , which can run around, presumably activating triggers/screwing with pre-placed units in peoples' various regions?

Terran ghost non hero = Echo

And it should be a fixed amount for each person.

I will also enter. Dibs on Ultralisk and I'll also be using the Larger Protoss Gas.
