EPTAssuming you can give him a regular attack, I really think that the HT would make a good hero. Psi Storm can Feedback are good skills to cater towards specific levels. We had a lot of problems with BCs, and a couple of good storms when they all clump up at the beginning would've got us through the level without losing lives.

I spent a lot of time trying to make the difficulty increase (and have a couple easy breaks in a level from here to there so you have more money to spend) throughout the game. I suppose I should've made more of an effort to getting rid of the valleys =( | ||

Your positive views are like a badge of honor for me! Ty I didn't even realize they added in the Editor(oh what a ladder scrub I am) Saved it where you said, Loaded it up in the editor and then test map. Done deal. For anyone else confused the Editor is found under C:/ > Program Files > SC2 Folder not under My Documents. Not bad, I guess I'm awful at this cause level 3 wipes me out and I can't beat 2 without leaking. Lawl maybe I should get some friends up in this maw. Quick thing I noticed and or suggestion. Why is the Medivac in the game? It moves exactly the same speed as the SCV so it's useless unless you get stuck.  | ||

The Medivac is there for two reasons: 1) When you have minerals and need to get from one side of the map to the other in time. I've edited and made the Medivac faster so that it could do its job better. Please download the updated map! 2) When you are in the later parts of the game, and there are Turrets in every orifice, its more and more likely that your SCV will get stuck! That means you need a Dropship to rescue him! If its useless to you because you forget to keep it nearby your SCV then that's your own fault (sorry but its true) | ||

I also updated the map to fix an error that Alissy in the TL IRC found where not all units are killed at the end of the Level. Please update the map (Revision 7)! | ||

Just look at the circle as you're placing, and look to place it so that the pathing of units results in them being in range the longest. Putting the turrets on the straight paths results in less fire time for the turrets. | ||

O, and there was a bug where the banshee didn't explode on great spire, resulting the game to halt. | ||

The level names are SC1 units, and the units themselves are completely different than the units named. The units have egregious pathfinding bugs, especially the Interceptor ("Scourge"), which are all stacked on top of each other so it's impossible to see how many. The SCV and the dropship move way too slow; an artifact of the feeble SC1 editor which need not plague us in 2010. And the brightness! Dear God, the brightness! Does this game take place inside the Sun or something? I'm not in the mood right now to even think about where I should begin with this ignorant babble of yours. Read the original post and go buy Brood War. | ||

Additionally it seems like pure turrets are more effective than heroes. I've gotten the hydra 2 times and marine once making full use of it (attack,move,attack,move + using drop ships on every corner but it doesn't seem as effective). I've forgotten if some units count as 2 or 3 lives, but perhaps you could make the game trigger a delay of 1 second per unit so it: 1) Doesn't lag 2) Suspense 3) Not error and deduct more than 1 life per unit. Thanks! | ||
