I removed the reaver temporarily because its such a beast combined with warp prism and warp in. Players can win as soon as they get a reaver down in the enemy base and keeps warping in units. Its so hard to stop : /

I love the reaver, but I love warp in and warp prism even more. These two combined are to good.


I temporarily moved the spells from the flying caster to the infestor. The flying caster was to good, and the infestor functioning as a siege unit was also.. to good.. and confusing..

Generally I try to make the game a bit simpler. So the infestor is now a traditionl caster, with some of the spells from the flier.

You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call "failure" is not the falling down, but the staying down.

why not just make reavers more expensive, or make the ammo really expensive or smth

Or get rid of the warp prism and bring back the shuttle.

Some very cool ideas:

I like the chrono boost on the cannons very much. In fact, I think it's brilliant.
High Templars casting force fields seems nice too.
Nice new concept for the Infestor.
Your Nydus Worms are similar to the Swarm Host concept. ^^
Terran seems to lack a strong anti-air unit, like the Goliath/Thor.

Starbow is no more.



There is no reason to keep modifying this. People just don´t play it anyways : /

Starbow has been removed from EU. Please remove it from NA as well.


If anyone has any interest to continue work on this, or if you have your own ideas you wanna try, PM me and I will send you the files and you can base your mod upon this. Call it whatever you want. Take full credit. Be an internet hero.


All advanced stuff has been made, like dark swarm, dragoons, reavers etc. All you have to do is keep balancing it and change stats. Have fun playing it with friends etc. Perhaps you have some great ideas. PM me and I send you the mod-files and maps etc.

Thats because

Starbow is no more.

Well that just sucks. I was starting to get into this game and it is a lot of fun. Don't see why you want to discontinue it.

In fact, why would you remove the whole mod completely? Hell, I'd get some friends of mine and myself and we could play. You might as well keep it on Battle.net for those who still play it.

I would continue it but I have no experience with the StarCraft 2 editor.

Glad to hear you enjoy it

But I have failed in my attempt to make something unique and interesting. Most people try this, thinks "whats the deal with this shit?" then leaves the game and never touches it again. I don´t blame them. I wish this was as good as I pictured it to be. But it isn´t. Too much weird ideas that don´t work. To much unbalance.


Protoss kills everything.

Zerg just sucks.

Terran is not fun to play. The new macro mechanic is just confusing.


My goal:

- Approach more of a BW-feeling but still feel fresh and unique.
- More positional play, with better tanks, lurkers, cannons with chrono boost, reavers, spider mines etc.
- More expansions and a spread out economy.
- Less deathball
- More spread out combat.

The game is still deathballs of doom. People sit on 1-2 bases. The game don´t feel unique. And most of it, its not fun. Not fun enought to try it a second time.

As the wise Danko said, something like this: People play custom games to play something fun and simple. Not to play something new semi-competive.



For these reasons, I feel that I will never get a larger audience enjoy it. Hence, I create it in a vacuum and got no one to play it with

Like inventing the phone and have no one to call.. PP

i doubt that you can sit on 1-2 bases
the income is just too low
i had 4 bases in our game
also you cant tell if one race is imba after 1-2 games Oo
maybe you guys play it wrong
iam not a pro player but i will test it
and if you want more positional fighting add high ground bonus
