<b>ns_checkers</b> <i>by Yuniargo aka duckling, f0RkidlE, [AM]-=f0RCE=</i>

This is a map based on an annoying game called "checkers". I thought the annoyingness of "checkers" would translate well to NS so I made the map. Enjoy!

    As far as I can tell that's supposed to look like a chinese checkers board.

    4+ hives problem was fixed to the best of my knowledge.

    Looks like an..interesting map :O

    I almost might like to play it if it was only 4 hives instead of 8, and if.. you know.. aliens had a chance in hell of fighting marines in those corridors. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Download link doesn't work, anyway.

    Marine start is in the center of the map. Marine start room has 2 resource nodes. There is 1 resource node by each hive, and 4 resource nodes between the hives and marine start.

    Careful of the pits of doom under the corner hives <!--emo&::fade::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/fade.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='fade.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Marines can choose which direction they want to start out on. I'd suggest not opening too many doors or marine start will start to look very desolate <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    fortify the res nodes between the hives i guess, but yeah looks mighty hard to win as <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Would be such a cool layout for a Starcraft like "Marines Build & Defend Base in a Certain Time Limit" game mode. If anyone goes on the I&S forums, links this thread and makes that idea alot better <!--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--> And credit me for the inspiration, of which I credit Starcraft.
  • td_alakadtd_alakad Join Date: 2004-09-23 Member: 31886Members
    Well this game is totally based on Starcraft anyway, and Starcraft is based loosely on a slough of other sources such as Warhammer. So there should deffinitely be more Starcraft based stuff!! ^_^

    THE ZERG FTW!!

    Err *cough* I mean Kharaa...

    Well, cool map, I'll ask my local server admins to give it a spin.
