I had previously made a map that went out pretty well, then when it seemed that no one was playing it anymore, I updated it some more and was going to release it again. Then, within short time of release, my hard-drive crashed and I lost my map and all other things on my computer. Now I'm creating it again, but this time, I'm going to make it better than ever.

Features:
Special Artifacts that can only be purchased once.
An ammo system that runs of mana.
A kick/boot system.
Special, realistic, skills.
This, unlike snipers, is going to use lives, not a total you must reach.
Sooner than later I will add special vehicles, making the game interesting.
Also, I might eventually add the change between female and male thing. As of now just male.
And more yet to come...

Feel free to suggest some ideas to make this map better.

Alpha Version here and ready for testing! It still has ALOT of work, and since I made that big mistake (posted further down) I will almost fully recreate the whole map, including terrain, mabey tileset, triggers will change. ect.

You could add the following: Medipack (ITEM):Heal HP Stimpack (ITEM): Faster speed Grenade (ITEM or ABILITY): Throw grenade to damage enemys. Land Mine (ITEM): Just like Mine Tool Kit (ITEM): repairs vehicles and mechanical units Sprint (ABILITY): Like Stimpack but unlimited. Upgraded Rounds (UPGRADE or ABILITY or ITEM): Increases Bullet Damage some custom models some custom icons A GreatOh and for helping you a bit can i be a tester for your map?! Please? And if i am can i get some credit? if you let me be tester i promise ill give you my REAL ideas and dont worry about my reputation... i lost 5 points for yelling at the custom model tutorial.

Ok, I'll take those ideas into consideration. Sure testers are what I'll be needing. Although, I'm not 100% done yet. So it'll be just a bit before I'm finished.

Happy New Year.

Edit: Btw, I do have a grenade skill. It's based off the Flame Strike Spell. Also, what I did, but will change in the next version, is Hero stuff, right now it's just a plain unit. But, with all different stats making each hero custom, and the fact the I can revive the hero instead of making a new one, that's what I'll do.

Correct. At the moment this is a one-man-project. Although, in the near future, getting beta testers that will always be there to test my map should help. And custom models. Last, mabey some people to spoof up the map a bit, such as fixing the terrain, the triggers, balancing the units.

Name: Rocket Launcher
Description: Heavy Medium-Ranged Weapon. An effective weapon against infantry but hard to hit directly. But the main reason of the rocket launcher was to destroy vehicles with a single rocket.
Ammo: 1 Rocket Per Clip
Advantage: High damage and deadly.
Disadvantage: Heavy, Long Reload, only 1 rocket per clip.

Name: 9mm Pistol
Description: A light secondary weapon. Men would use these if thier primary weapon ran out of ammunition. Many Soldiers use Dual pistols. Pistols are only good against infantry. This is an accurate Weapon
Ammo: 25 bullets Per Clip
Advantage: Can dual, Very Light, ammo is small and easy to carry around, and accurate.
Disadvantage:A bad weapon for mechanical units and vehicles. Not alot of damage against armor.

I dunno if you want to be realistic with the desert eagle, if so.

7 rounds
very powerful
heavy secondary weapon/pistol

it would cause alot of damage vs armor, and would no be dual wieldable.

a more fitting gun for your description would be something along the lines of a GLOCK or a 9mm pistol.

Name: Flamethrower
Description: A short-ranged primary weapon. Although very effective against infantry the hard part is getting close to the enemy before they get shot. Heavy Damage to Troops, Medium Damage to light vehicles, and small damage to heavily armored vehicles.
Ammo: 250L per gas tank
Advantage: High damage, High Ammo
Disadvantage: Somewhat heavy, Short Range.

Ok, first my b.net name is the same (check my profile) second, all good ideas. So, I'd like to use some mabey, and what I'll do is for the weapon ideas (i dunno if this is how you had it in mind too but) each weapon idea will be a seperate unit. I.E. Flamethrower will be one unit, desert eagle will be another (just not with the exact same names.

Next, after I release this ALPHA ver. successfully, I'll start looking for members of the crew, to help me get this project on its feet. All i have to do at the moment is import a custom image for the backround.

Edit: AHAHAHAH!!! Guess what, I can probely release alpha 0.5 right now, but next version might have to wait... reason being that I have to re-write ALL the triggers. I went ahead to protect the map, but I forgot winmpq saves absolutely every action you take when you take it. So, not having a back-up I made a mistake. But from what I know, this map still should be playable, just the triggers are hidden, and can only be edited through JASS (if recovered). Oh well, mistakes are made by people every day.
