I recently finished this map I created all the way back in 2007. EVERYTHING I did myself from drawing the map (which I still believe is my best ever) to writing all the triggers and attempting to overcome well used tropes of that era.

Players:
5 Human players (Germ, Italy, Fran/USA, GB, Yugo Resistance)
1 computer Axis (Romania)

Features:
No Ships on Land
Yugoslavian Resistance spawned from Probe
Main focus is Italy, thus Germany takes a back seat
Usage of gas and trade lanes
German and British convoys of troops moving throughout the Mediterranean
A timelimit so games don't drag out forever (90minutes)
Simple mission objectives (Axis survive for 90minutes, allies take key locations)
Events are based on what players do in game such as taking Tobruk or clearing Rome of Axis troops

I never really tested it and by 2007 most of the StarCraft player base had moved on. I also wasn't confident in making BW maps and wanted to keep the focus on balancing everything with base units without cheese units. I have tried multiple times across reddit and facebook to get a few people together to test this but never seemed to work out. I am FalconGuy1987 here, on reddit and on US West if anybody is interested in putting a testing session together.

Thank you.

P.S. If your playing the game and some units come out double, that was intentional, please don't change it.

I'll add more tonight when I do another run through.

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 -- Used : " [img=https://i.imgur.com/gpOjTuD.jpeg] "

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.
