<div class="IPBDescription">Give a hand?</div> First of all i'm not sure if it's the right forum. Please move it where you want it.

I am thinking about writing a complete guide for ns_veil that includes, good spots to place structures, where to ambush and where to look.
The guide would be written in english and supported with screenshots which shows the structure placement and skulk ambush spots.
Also where to place that pg near the hive and good spots for TFs for more map control.
I am looking for 1-3 peaple heling me out on this, any contact at <a href='mailto:blaster12secret@hotmail.com'>blaster12secret@hotmail.com</a> (also is my msn feel free to add me) or PM me at these boards.
I can host a server for taking the screenshots in and testing other structure placements.
I'm also looking for a image host to host all those screenies. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Thank You!

    I've already done one <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Just needs a few more overview pics edited then it's done.
    Complete com guide to the map, areas of strategetic interest, good strategies, good siege locations etc.

    I'm planning to expand it to include "places to look for nasty c4mp0ring skulks" aswell.


    Best imagehost I've found so far is <a href='http://www.imageshack.us' target='_blank'>http://www.imageshack.us</a>

    You've obviously not played it much, or much well.

    Wouldn't 1 complete guide be more useful than 2 seperate ones?

    Ns_veil is a high quality map, good luck on the guide. A good idea for the map is if aliesns have either one of the end-hives (pipeline or sub) you should rush for the other as rines.

    I emailed you a useful link for structure placement on tanith, veil and eclipse. Please don't spread it as it's very picture heavy and will rape by bandwidth.

    Yeah...veil's pretty simple compared to, say, ayumi. Or bast. Or altair. Or mineshaft. Actually, it's probably the most simple classic map, imo <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I wrote a guide-ish type thing a long time ago in the Frontiersman Strategy forum. I think pretty much everybody who would want to do such a thing has, actually. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> Veil is like the first thing you should learn to do when you're just a baby n00b comm cutting your teeth on your fave server. If you go and find my guide, you'll notice that in the title, I said it was for ns_eclipse, (d'oh) and also that it's somewhat outdated, since I think I wrote it back in 2.0. The overall strategy is still valid though, as evidenced by the fact that I still pretty much follow it, though I do put a bit more pressure on double than I used to, in so far as I don't actually yell at rambos trying to go there. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
