This was my last completed SC1 Map before I left the scene, recently found it and decided to upload it for anyone still playing SC1.

Check it out here http://www.staredit.net/files/2366/

Turn Defense is a unique take on defense maps.

You've got to manage resource collection, combat timing and unit combination.

This is a 1-4 player map, but difficulty increases the less players you have.

Make sure to read the map briefing to better understand the gameplay mechanics.

Thinking about porting this over to SC2. Let me know what you think!

Okay, I gave this map a whirl

I have to say that the resource management part of the game doesn't really work for me.
I think that Minerals = vision represents a very bothersome number that players are forced to pay attention to.
it doesn't integrate well enough into the game.

Resource management is already present in the simple 1) Spend more money to build more defense or 2) Spend more money to gain more money strategy.. I think that's much more compelling that messing around with the vision...

One way you Could create a dichotomy in resources without it affecting the gamepaly too much is make Upgrades base on minerals, and Units base on Gas. Also, make it so that Minerals and Gas are interchangable with a cost.. (i.e. it is more costly to change the minerals into gas, rather than just use the resources to just mine the gas)

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
