Stand of the Peons - Official Thread

Stand Of the Peons

Stand Of the peons (SoP) is a very simple map, but it still needs alot of skill and speed.

Gameplay:

* Use peons and burrows to defend yourself of the oncoming waves longer then your opponents.

* There will be 11 burrows in the final version, which means the whole build menu for the peon wil be filled with different burrows.

* The burrows have special attacks which trigger when you reach some amounts of peons, like the Chaos burrow which enlights all nearby units, and the Crypt Burrow which can attack more units at the same time.

* The special BET system allows you to guess of which player you think will loose first, and if you are correct you will recieve a special gift.

* There will be huge amounts of waves, and it will be impossible to beat them all. Instead, there will be a "Hall of Fame" on the website, where you can send in replays with the game where you beat the record, and if so, you will be placed in the Hall of Fame.

Im gonna add more gameplay and such when i get more=)

Cool idea... could be a fun game thought it is simple... td type of maps need new ideas and here we got one...

Go 4 it..

Sounds pretty cool!

Thanks for the replies... im gonna post screenshots from the first b.net tests in an hour :D

---------- (2 hours of gametesting) ----------

Ok, here comes the first screens! A guy on b.net made me remake it 3 times so it took some time :D





Here's the defence of the guy who wanted me to remake all the time=) He got 2 normal burrows which create a barrier for the peons to repair behind, and a huge chaos burrow to deal alot of damage with its buring attack. Also shows a message that a player has chosen to control a wave.



Here you have my own defence, using normal burrows as barrier exactly like the other guy, and a nerubian burrows maxed with peons, which gives it a freezing 3 target barrage attack:D

nice idea:gsmile: looks like their are many possibilities.

Indeed. Let me know if you want some quality testers :ggani:

Thanks8))

Right now im just hosting on b.net and letting ppl join when i test (protected of course). If you have any ideas of how to change gameplay, post here=)

make the first burrow cheaper, but hold less peons. Thats my opinion..

Gadden nice... btw i figured out how to fix the bug... and HOW DO U POST SCREENS IN 1 reply..?? emote_confused

I think thats a good idea toxic, becuz of it holds less peons it can be of better use as blocker.... But lowering the cost will mean you can afford both a burrow and almost a peon each round, right now you waste all your bounty to get one basic burrow a round.

Alowan: You use the [ img ] link to image [ / img] (if i got u right)
(and btw, thanks for promoting me to grunt on clan ladder:P lol)

Here's the map preview picture (which u see while u wait to start the game), which was made by Ackbar aka. Mara.jade.



edit: Last test resultet in my computer braking down twice, trying to fix it now.... emote_sweat

if u use the img u will need to have it on a server..

Ok i changed the first post, added some new gameplay stuff, like the betting system.
