i recall when i tried to get high ranking in iccup, i was kinda pissed off cuz when i played TvP the following would happen:

after smashing my force against the terran, i would try to reinforce and overcome his tank position with zealots after the vultures were all gone... however, the vultures would always show up sooner and re-deploy spider mines and i would lose... i was thinking to myself: man if the game just had MBS i could stand a better chance at squeezing out the timing a bit better...

dunno if the terran was hitting the builds perfectly but just a thought

Oh man, those lurkers are so cute.

While this mod is awesome and the level of polishing is stunning, I do have the feeling that it's a waste of time (my apologies to the creators). BW is not returning, the future is Hots.

Still an amazing job, Blizzard should definitely hire the guy who did this.

One doesn't simply headbutt a terran army in BW.

You need to flank the god damn tanks, and depending on the number of tanks you definitely need storm/stasis/zealot bombs. Spread out dragoons before engaging, keep an observer hotkeyed to defuse spider mines and kill the meat vultures in the edge of the tanks range, once the vulture numbers are reduced you retreat a little your dragoons and let your zealots head in first, trying to make them get through the left over vultures and getting to the tank cluster. If you have stasis, you definitely need to stasis a cluster of tanks in the back of his army. All this while the terran tries to EMP your arbiters and HTs, your 4-5 control groups of army are baited into tank range and surrounded by vultures that will melt in a sec your goons and zealots with spider mines.

So yea, BW requires a lot of control, strategic/tactic positioning and the patience to know when and where to engage, makes it for a very exciting game to watch and play, and especially to appreciate how high level players manage to everything, when I can barely do 1/10th of that...

At least that is what I think that should be done, but I'm just a D chobo, so higher level players can definitely give better input on that!

For those ppl still bw setting there.

This mod should not just be a toy for old guys to remind good old days,it can do some real big things.tell people who starts from sc2,even people played neither sc2 nor bw,BW is what a great game,how shitty Dustin's "new ideas" do,what a perfect RTS game should be,finally,this will take BW and RTS come back.

if we just stop at the step"hi guys,someone made a map like bw in sc2,it's funny and thats all",I must say this is waste of Maverck's 2 years' effort.

Im a big fan of this mod, and though I don't have much money layig around I do want to see this get some exposure. So if someone is willing to organize a pretty nice tournament, make some graphics for it, I will take $100 out of my pocket so we can have a little tournament with this mod.

If anyone is serious about doing something like this, shoot me a pm.

Hmm, I'd cast a game or two for fun if people send me some good replays; might have to wait about a week or so though before parts for my new comp arrive so I can handle SC2 and Xsplit.

This might revive Broodwar a little bit more if it's close enough for BW tournaments to adopt. Are the unit sounds like Broodwar in this? Zealots used to sound scary. Props to who ever's been putting the work in on this.

He most likely did not make the editor. It was probably a team of programmers who will never receive any appreciation or attention for what they have crafted.

Don't forget that the Terran would also have MBS and would probably ball up faster as well
