overview:
There are 2 neutral buildings in the middle of the barrens; Terran can repair these buildings. On the other side of the walls there is a expo inritched with 2 gas ad 18 minerals ( Separate Sides ) south/north of that location is your opponents barren walls. 1000hp | (Testing)

East of your expo is a ramp that leads down into the protoss/zerg flanking area this is a big area but takes longer for your units to arrive at your opponents base. However the barren is a place where zerg might set up alot of lurker traps, or protoss set up psi storm attack, or obviously Terran might use the cliff to set up Tank traps; as you can see i have tried to balanced this map as much as i can and it is my FIRST map, so be gentle.

( also theres a bug with the picture at reds base (11) there is the start of a new pic on the old one not very noticeable )
So let me know what you think, dont bother posting stupid comment though i dont read them

NudeRaider -- blessed innocent soul knows nothing of the strife we had before EUDs were discovered :teehee:

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings

Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:
