Blood Bath
Made by -NegativeZero-
Published as "Blood Bath - Symmetrical" on NA
Playable bounds: 76x76

[image loading]

Detail of center

Changes:
Version 0.2
+ Show Spoiler +
-Small aesthetic changes
-Added doodads/unpathable terrain along the base edges to prevent warp-ins across the gap


So I was bored and wanted to take a break from the "serious" map I'm working on, so I started this...

Anyone who played BW probably knows this map. There are quite a few SC2 versions already in existence, but all that I saw were old, poorly made, and/or had positional imbalances. I know the positional imbalances were a part of the original, but I wanted to make a version which was completely rotationally/reflectionally symmetrical in all 4 directions so that all 4 spawn locations function identically. Even the in-base "expansions" are placed so that the town hall is built at the corresponding exact position on each side of each base.

The main mineral patches have 1500 each, the geysers have 5000 each, and the "expansion" patches have 2000 each. In total, each player has 2 normal bases worth of resources in their base.

The center and the bridges are unbuildable, so the end of the bridge functions basically like a 2 FF wide ramp and can be walled with 3 3x3 buildings.

The aesthetics aren't quite finished yet, I'll do another update before publishing.

The original BW Blood Bath

Blood Bath was my favorite map on BW. I'll keep checking to see when you publish it.

I think If you have a terran opponent next to you, it might be quite hard to get the expansion on the border to him (siege tanks).

Anyways, looks fun - a typical map for a Lan-Party with my friends^^ (Blizzard >_>...)

Looks good, I like the symmetry that you added, it improves on the original.

Not a serious map obviously, but definitely something that might be fun for a 4 way free for all.

Move one side of the extra minerals closer to the entrance and one away slightly hmm?

you gotta make the middle bigger almost half the size of the mains - trust me these small maps once mid-game if the zerg didnt gain a lead early is doomed. (it doesnt ruin the integrity of the map either.)

Or the rest of the map is simply too small, its all a matter of perspective.
Comparing BW with SCII is like comparing a beautiful three-master sailing ship with a modern battlecruiser. Both are beautiful in their own way, both perform the same task, but they are worlds apart in how they are built and how they are steered.

It's a nice port but I just don't think it'll play out in SC2 the way it did in BW.
You mean I just write stuff here and other people can see it?

Map is now published on NA in the melee section (I'd like to do arcade eventually, but I'm still figuring out how to add all the various game types of 1v1, 2v2, FFA). I also added some minor aesthetic updates, which I'll add to the OP once imgur's servers finish failing.

I'm also working on another version with a larger middle and smaller mains, I'm not sure yet what will happen with that one.

Edit: For some reason the map seems to be using an extremely old version/patch where khaydarin amulet and flux vanes are still in the game, and colossi do 40 dmg with a longer cooldown. To be honest I don't really care, since it's not a serious map anyway, but does anyone know why this is happening?

However, one problem I definitely need to fix is that protoss can warp in between bases - in the editor it didn't look possible, and it just barely is (stalkers can't fit). I'll try to update soon.

Edit 2: Solved warp-in problem, fixed version has been uploaded.

I wish colossus did 25x2 damage so they could 1shot workers and marines. Like reavers.

On topic: There have been many nice remakes of this map. This is definitely one of them. ^^
