Xeyed Custom Race | Cyclone Jungle (Please give feedback!)
Here I will release new versions of my map containing my custom race called Xeyed. Here I would appreciate it if fellow mapsters would give me feedback.

Oh, SC2Mapsters page system seems messed up, the links URL are correct, but for whatever reason they redirect to the default page. I'll just go ahead and change them to a link to my imgur albums with more up to date descriptions.
Oh. Don't use the zerg Leviathan model for the Kraken. Use aquatic Brood Lord model instead. It's a lot more squid like. :) I rated your mod btw.
Your unit and tech tree pages don't work. They take you to the structure page....
Yes, that would be cool! But I wouldn't know how to accomplish this, I can probably figure it out tho
@Tillman19: Go
Agreed, that idea is interesting. I'd imagine something like this... (but scaled to the size of Scavenger) of this very old video at 1:24.
Maybe the Scavenger could secrete green bile (or some such thing) onto the building, AS the process of building it. Then he wouldn't have to move. This would be a very alien mechanic to SC2-type building, further underscoring the Xeyed's unique racial identity.
The Scvenger not moving while building I tried to make like an SCV, but I never figured it out and I was like meh, so I left it.
I think it would be worth mentionning the differences and the unique mechanics of this race. Think of Protoss has warp-in, Zerg has burrow, and Terran has cloacked units, Xeyed has a couple cool stuff too.
One mechanic that I love that has a part of risk, placement, anticipation, could be use offensively like a proxy pylon, etc., it's the healing aura of the building for supply. It's very interesting...
Another mechanic about the Xeyed is that multiple buildings has their own pack of up to 3 larva. If you need more larva, make more of that building.
I don't know if I would count that as a mechanic or a bug or a minor issue or whatever, but the Scavenger (drone for Xeyed) build as an SCV, but doesn't move. So you can either, predict on which side it will move once finished building or place it in the middle to prevent melee units from reaching it.
@EDHRIANO: Go Listing credit to all USED models, not nescessarily those included in the editor
Thrikodias: Scorpalisk
Mutagen Chamber
Sunken Colony
SoulFilcher:Scavenger
Alleyviper: Aerialisk
Spitter
Xeyedling
Ghostnova: Xeyepalythoan
The rest of the other customized models were made by myself, retextures of blizz models or made through data editor.
Well that was really refreshing experience, like the ideas and the concept of new race.
Very cleaver use of different units, aside from occasion visual bugs here and there it was really lots of fun.
May I suggest to give proper credits to the creator to said unit(s), maybe like this :
Credits for unit XXX goes to XXX.
Again great work here.
