valkyrie micro seems pretty easy to replicate. it's actually shown me i've done the valkyrie wrong.
seems it does 4 volleys of 2? currently i've made it do 8 volleys of 2.

making DA portrait red would require editing the model (well maybe texture. i'll look at that)
sounds i can import easily. i just always put it off because im lazy

i thought i had the rate of fire for the reaver correct. I'm probably wrong haha.

im liking this alot!
Heres my ideas:
-Is it possible to make the mutalisks stop stacking when u select over 11, instead of not letting you attack?
-Implementing the queen would be sick (though probably difficult)
-And is it possible to slow the larva spawn time for hatcheries? because it just seems a bit too fast compared to brood war.
Also u should import the sounds asap, it made the experience so much better when i heard the original zergling sounds.

larva in BW take 14 seconds to spawn
larva in SC2 take 15 seconds to spawn. shouldn't seem any different

mutalisks should spread out while idle.

i have the queen im just not sure if i want to use the swarm guardian model for it.

Good job on the Dark Archon, remember to add the upgrades for energy increasing.

You should also change the amount of space in the shuttle back to 8, because probes are taking up the same amount of space as zealots, even though they should only take up half as much space. And then mind controlled units don't have enough space as well.

I have some complaints about the Terran as it is now.. ..But take these complaints as constructive criticism, please. (:

- Barrack's Tech Lab
+ Show Spoiler +

It should not be there at all, and all its upgrades should be in the Academy. The medic's abilities Flare and Restoration are missing as well as Caduceus Reactor (which is implemented, with this name, with the exception that it targets the Medivac, instead of the Medic).

- Engeneering Bay
+ Show Spoiler +

Structure upgrades should be removed. I don't think that's possible, but can it lift off?

- Starport's Tech Lab
+ Show Spoiler +

EMP's there for aparent no reason. Apollo Reactor is missing (+50 energy to Wraith).

- Ghost's abilities/upgrades
+ Show Spoiler +

Lockdown and Ocular implants are missing.

- Descriptions of some upgrades are missing.
+ Show Spoiler +

Ion Thrusters,
Charon Boosters,
and Irradiate.

- Science Facility
+ Show Spoiler +

Is there a way to hide the building until time X, when those tall things appear like every other building? BTW, Titan Reactor is missing.

Have you thought about using the Reactor as Control Tower? Or the Tech Reactor as Machine Shop?

I assume he's getting to that. Still some other stuff missing like units that I'd assume (hope) he would do first. Queen, devourer. Would a pygmy Leviathan do for a devourer placeholder? Or would the levi have way too many polys or something since there's only ever meant to be one?

lockdown added
snipe removed

Smaller leviathan would be a great devourer placeholder. Dont know how the polygon issue works out.

There is no maps directory, you have to publish it yourself to play with your friends. To test it out, just open it in the map editor and then press the test button.

Maverick do you think joining together a bunch of Sentry models would make a good reaver placeholder? You could link them end to front and change the sizes so the second one is bigger than third smaller and fourth even smaller to give it a reaver appearance.

Right. The medivac is the dropship, but 1) it still has energy, 2) they do not come with my own decal, 3) its icon in the Starport is still Medivac's.

Ghost's cost is SC2's (150/150). It should be 50/75. And couldn't it be the normal ghost? Having thousands of Novas/Kerrigans is a bit strange. Oo

Terran AI builds Marauders! :O

Can Swarm Guardian be edited? I mean, the model itself... If so, how? That should be the best way to get the Guardian.

I'm missing the Devourer.

I hope you succeed in making this map balanced and have the old SCBW feel :D

I would definately like to use UMS like this for breaks in between SC2 games.

Could you make the middle segments bigger like the reaver? And taper the back ones so they get smaller?

I just tested the sentry thing out in the map editor. It actually doesnt look half bad. Surprisingly like a reaver. Sorry I cant seem to get a screen shot for it though. The infestor looks zergy but has the advantage of crawling animations. I cant figure out how to give it a shiny shader.

i've mostly made the devourer. just can't morph it yet.
using leviathan for now. it looks ... ok. i had no issues with lag after spawning about 30 of them but i have a ridiculous PC so im not sure how low-mid range PCs

multiple sentry idea is interesting for the reaver. i havn't tried anything like that in the map editor before. but i may try.

i've said this multiple times. AI will not work.
