I used to play Broodwar for a few year back when it was released. I spent most of my time playing Used Map Setting games because I sucked at melee, and there were some really boss UMS'. If I were to buy BW, would the custom games be deserted? I imagine practically the only people playing are the people that play melee games. Thanks | ||

I am certainly not very efficient, but I don't feel like working at all. Actually, watching AI-controlled stuffs being killed by other AI-controlled stuffs is super boring, so it's like Turret Def makes tidying not look as a chore, and tidying makes Turret Def less boring :D | ||

Helms deep was generally based on one team defending and the other attacking. But you could also win by killing the orc commander and some counter attacks were done to kill specific hero units like the defiler hero. I think the game was supposed to end with everyone on the defending side transferring to the cave place and waiting for the timer. The offensive side would try to destroy the defences fast enough that they could mount a force last enough to destroy the units in the cave. I only played it a few times, but I think it'd be nice to give the defending team some incentive to be offensive. | ||

Each round sends a unit down this long road from one side of the map to the other, and some are really hard to kill. I vividly remember timing nukes to hit the unit as it ran along and yelling to the Zergs "Don't ensnare it! I've got this!". When a nuke hits it dead-center and all your teammates are going nuts.... doesn't get much better than that. | ||

The concept was to try and maneuver a unit, in this case a zergling, through a set of obstacle courses which included timed explosions, deadly units chasing you around and generally micro and timing intensive tasks where one wrong move meant your death. | ||

-Temple Siege: Fun game. Players are the most BM I have ever witnessed. Flaming starts before the game does and continues until someone gets drophacked. -Mini games (by millenium I think): The map has like 200 well-built mini-games involving everything from bound style unit control, evolves, micro arena, math games, and everything inbetween. -Pretty much every game listed above. I played way too much BW UMS... Edit: Oh yeah, and there is not nearly enough love for risk (Action Edition 2.5 or whatever). Better than the board game! | ||

Basically people go onto two teams and each team has its own Xel'Naga structure. The goal is to destroy the tower, and it has a ridiculous amount of health (it doesn't have a health bar or armor stats). You start out with only like 500 minerals and 200 gas each round, and you use those resources to produce any unit in this "waiting area" place then move a civilian to a beacon to transport your selection to the battlefield. As you kill enemy units you get "experience" and eventually "level up," and you start getting more and more minerals and gas to work with to remake an army every time your army dies. The whole thing is real-time, so it's not a turn-based "which unit combination will completely counter my opponent's" so much of a "figure out what to send and do it quick." Does anyone know what map it's called? Where I could get it? Thanks in advance! | ||

No, it had to be you and 2 or 3 others *who actually knew what they were doing* spread out, that way your upgrades and unit choices (which were obviously the best) could be used to maximum effect and you could get more kills ♥ I only ever won that way Some of these games are hackable, and as long as you give yourself something to survive the first few levels, I think it's easier to play solo so you get more upgrades. I remember beating chain defence solo by making a medic wall. Same with a couple versions of lame d. | ||

You just had to learn all the little exploits and builds to win it. At the end, we just kind of massed units (I almost always went ghost) and EMP/nuked the photons. As long as we had enough people, it worked well enough. I probably played it less than 20 times given how long it took (frikking 2 hour gamer lol), and won twice, maybe thrice. So... up for a round this weekend, good sir? | ||

My personal favorites were Bunker Command 2 Magic the Gathering (Never got tired of killing summoners who went in the middle haha) Snowball Wars Helms deep (We did some heavy refinements to balance the game, friends spent hours getting the finicky details down) Can't remember the name but we loved a game where there was a massive amount of square segments and by taking over a segment with a science vessel you would get a bunker in a new location which also created marines. You could upgrade attack, armor, attack speed etc etc. | ||

So basically you gotta dodge the nukes when they are en route and try to survive and get the other players killed by getting their routes nuked. So its an updated nuke the whales game in a sense? | ||

So... up for a round this weekend, good sir? i played it with a friend during the summer, it's quite easy if you get the hang of it. gols for the beginning infested terran mechanic, then switch to marines later. the best way to beat those end bcs is to use dropships to get there and anticipate the spawn (if i recall correctly some triggers can be abused so you're prepared), if your marines (2 control groups worth) are well upgraded they should tear through them pretty easily. for the final last part nukes work well against the photon cannons instead of actually fronting it with marines | ||

I am most up for a round this weekend, and hope 3 others are as well. Also I always went max infantry first, then switched to the gol in dropship trick for a while before just massing everything as well. And yeah nukes at the end for the win. | ||
