This is a map that I made before and I improved on it a little. It is not actually part of any campaign, but it does act like one :D

Anyway I just want to know what you think....

It looks interesting, I think maybe some backstory might be in order?

If you wanted, you could change the starting race. Playing it as a terran or protoss mission... Since there's no story attached.

Was no real story behind the campaign, just normal old melee map.

Map was a little too big imo, was too simple with no objectives or side objectives. Just destory all enemies with no defeat or victory triggers.

I guess ok for a try a map, was somewhat fun playing it.



If all else fails, crowbar the fucker

Hmmm... I am sure I put in victory and defeat triggers... :|

Anyway, if anyone thinks that these kinds of maps will be good with a back story then you can ask to use it if you want to. The reason I did not write a story for it was it would have most likely sucked coming from me :blush:

Anyway, I am working on another map that is the same style, but I might change one of the races and see what kind of side missions I can add. If any one has any ideas, then feel free to post.

Well the general storyline for most RTS campaigns involves someone having a superweapon, and then everyone else attempts to destroy/capture it for their own use. [In Starcraft it was the Zerg!] Try starting on that point and work it out from there.

Thanks alot for the tips, greatly appreciated :D

I am starting to come up with a story for my second map, and I decided that in my third I might include all three races.

Nice, good ol' TvPvZ.

Oh, something I learned from my campaign. Don't have more than 2 or 3 heroes. [The occasional extra hero is okay, but keep a "base" of 1 or 2 heroes that you use in most maps in said campaign, although you're making a single map, maybe a sort of series is in order. Not so much a campaign, but a bunch of "episodes" which have no particular order. But all follow the same plot with the same characters etc.]
