It was love at first sight.
The first time Yossarian saw the bloody pit of a body thrown before him in a heaping tangle of limbs, he knew this is what he loved doing.
Yossarian was not one to abstain nor shy from the opportunity to blast a living creature to the eternal bliss from whence it came, but this was something much different. Different solely because he, in fact, would not get to do most the shooting of which he so thoughtfully thought of as his God given right. In fact, his orders were to stay right where he was, in bed, to twidle his thumbs about or, if he got bored with that, stick them up his ass. That’s what the commander ordered, and that was what he must do. So, as he lay on his makeshift cot, twidling his thumbs as his commanding officer explicitly told him to do, he sat wondering why he had been ordered to do so. Indeed, he was hated by most of the men at higher ranks then he was, and indeed, he couldn’t actually shoot a gun with out having to fire its whole magazine before actually hitting anything, but, that wasn’t the point. The point was that he wasn’t allowed to shoot.
He decided to begin his usual task of looting what the officers left behind at camp when they left for a mission, and, as he was pulling a fresh playboy from the backpack of General General Major, he noticed, in the sky, something rather odd. Well, not so much as odd as a huge meteor like figure hurling towards earth could be considered odd. But this huge fireball lunged into the earth and sent a shockwave through camp. Now, the most impressive thing about this was that it was oddly close to where the previous meteor like fireball had landed, and where the entire platoon was, and where General General Major was. And yes, this is where he had also found his true love and longed passionately to reunite with her in the joyous bonds of one man killing another living creature.
Of course, an impact of that size would have killed, if not maimed, the entire platoon and so Yossarian picked up his gun -- his lovely, beautiful gun, to whom, he would easily love just as much, if not for the fact that it was by extension of the gun that he could kill other living creatures, thereby making it a necessity in acquiring his one true love. Yes, he and his love triangle would be able to reunite once more, and as he slung his gun over his shoulder, he turned the keys of a jeep, and rode off into the distance of the quarantined zones of not one, but two crash sites…
Specs:
Multiplayer
Major Modification
No Special Maps Needed (Hopefully)
Information:
This modification adds changes to the Terran and Zerg (as if we haven't heard that one before). Protoss will probably not be modded. The zerg wil be turned into a new alien race who act in a sort of zombie-esk way. They feed off of other organisms or each other. They continually die off and hope that before doing so, they spawn their evil stim gene into other organisms. The terran will be modded into the LHR, Last Human Resistance, who are holding out against these alien foes. More details to come.
Edits:
Dat

Plugin
The Plugin:
The Plugin will perform various acts of greatness and heroism. First, it gives the larvae new character -- makes them slowly die of being alive. Second, broodlings now die when they get one kill -- a life for a life. Next, Mature Larva will die if not on creep. Shield regen will intensify on certain terrain (for Zerg units, it will be on creep). And, finially, it will do what ever else I feel necessary.
Campaign:
I promise nothing in the way of a campaign, but, if I find the time, I'll do it.
Screenshots:
Pre-alpha Screenshot. Merely shows that basic units, and the Queen Ship, who can lift off and attack the enemy, albiet slowly.
