AC130 Escort
View the trailer here!
Now contains part 2 and localization!
If you're anything like me, you've come to love the pure awesomeness of AC-130 gunships. So here's a mission where you're in one!
Contains parts 1 and 2. 3 and 4 are planned. Part 1 is an escort, part 2 is a base defense, part 3 is another escort, and part 4 is a bombing run.
It features a camera that circles around AC-130 style, following a convoy that you have to protect. Once it reaches the base, you must defend until more forces are built.
It also features 3 selectable weapons; Explosive Machine Gun, 40MM Cannon, and a Tactical Nuke. Select them using the custom GUI or by pressing 1, 2, or 3.
Leave any comments/suggestions/critiques you'd like, just keep in mind this is a rough draft.
Sometimes.. the camera only follows one tank and it doesnt move so all my men go away and i cant see and they die :(
The camera is really buggy, keeps going back to the spawn point.
And Malu, comon dude. He made a similar map, who cares?
Some inspiration maybe:

very cool. I haven't tried this yet but this made me register to comment. I've been hoping someone would copy the Modern Warfare AC130 missions on here. There's a really fun one on Special Ops that's co op with one guy on the ground shooting and painting targets for the gunship. It's a lot of fun on Veteran, and the only thing bad about it was there was only 1 like that. Would a challenging co-op like that work in SC2?
right around i encounter the first ultralisk the camera just goes back to the initial spawn point and stays there until i lose...
However, when it works it works well, and even looks great aesthetically.
