Map

The demo map features a little mission, where you goal is to kill the Marauder Boss.

Hope that helps

I think I broke your map.

Hey, nice. It depends on your point of view, whether to call it trick, bug, or feature. I was using it, to beat the map more easily (and I don't need the spawn timer in my other project). Anyways if you want to fix it, you'd need to change the Create Unit Effect.

• [Effect, Create Unit] Stalker - Baneling Launcher (Create Unit)
  • Unit: Spawn Unit = Baneling
  • Effect: Effect - Spawn = Broodling Timed Life
