I recently published a map called Artifact Wars Deluxe. This map was initially inspired by Lilman's terrific Nexus Wars map, but quickly morphed into something different.
I'm creating this thread for any questions, feedback, suggestions, compliments, or what have you. You can also e-mail me directly at [email protected].
Here's a quick description of Artifact Wars Deluxe:
FEATURES:
-Formations. New units you create will be spawned exactly in the formation you specify and will attempt to walk toward enemy players more or less in formation. Unit movement speeds have also been adjusted somewhat to help units stay in formation (speeds have been adjusted toward the average unit movement speed of 2.25 wherever possible).
-Auto-Deployment. As in Nexus Wars, you can build the units of all three races, and they will be automatically deployed toward your enemy's base.
-Tower Defense. Each player has three Probes that serve as dedicated turret constructors. These include Photon Cannons, Missile Turrets, Interceptor Towers, and Siege Tanks in Siege mode.
-Nukes. Each player has one invulnerable Raven to serve as a base defender, and it is armed with one ultra-high-yield nuclear weapon.
-Artifacts. There are two Xel'Naga Artifacts, one on each side of the map. Each player's Raven can signal the Xel'Naga Artifact on the opposite side of the map once every 15 minutes. Doing so will freeze all enemy turrets and Probes in temporal stasis for 60 seconds.
-Unit Upgrades. All the basic armor, weaponry, and shielding upgrades are available at your Nexus after 10 minutes of gameplay. Several specialized unit upgrades are available as well.
-Mercenaries and other special units. Among the Players can purchase are Devil Dogs, Spartan Company Goliaths, Dusk Wings, Tauren Space Marines, Omegalisks, and Xel'Naga Destroyers.
-Hero Units. Five special, custom-tuned units are available at the player's Nexus: the Void Seeker, Kerrigan, Odin, Hyperion, and special mothership known as the Grandmothership.
