Ant Attack  Basic Information: A simple multiplayer insect battle to determine who's the best ant colony in the battlefield. Bolster the ranks of your army by hatching a variety of ants of different types and purposes for a wide range of battle tactics. Upgrade your army's potential and strength, then destroy and outsmart your opponents. Gameplay Summary: 1) Basics Each player has the following starting units:
The Ant General is a Hero, and as such, has 4 unique skills and this ant can buy consumables from the Den of Treasures in a team's base. Eggs can hatch into a variety of units, in this case 10 units. You can also use your Ant Hive to select unhatched eggs for a good reason. If you know how the Zerg in SC produces units, then you know this concept already. When you kill enemy units or harvest lumber, it will part of the Miscellaneous Resources and it is automatically converted into gold (or blood in the map). I also incorporated most of the elements of Zerg gameplay in SC to this map, to make it feel more 'alien' or buggy sort of thing (not bugs as software flaws, but as insects!). 2) Game Types Ant Attack provides players with three game types to choose from, each with a different objective. The Host Player (Red) selects the desired game type for a single game, then selects a choice for other kinds of stuff in each game type (e.g. Points needed to win, number of Kills needed). Here is a description of each game type used in Ant Attack: Capture the Flag - Take the other team's flag from their base and take it to your base to score. The team who reaches the desired amount of points, first, wins. Hive Defense - This is the game type for fast-paced games. Simply destroy each enemy player's Ant Hives and achieve victory. Killing Spree - Kill as many units (including Creeps, but not your own allies' units) as you can to reach the desired amount of points to win. The Host Player may choose any amount of points desired for players to achieve victory, with the exception of Hive Defense. The Host can also select lower values for fast-paced games. 3) The 'Qwerty' Hotkey System Ant Attack has a QWERTY hotkey system so that the player could easily train units in an efficient manner. There are 10 units for players to hatch, and so there are 10 keys for this system ; q, w, e, r, t, y, u, i, o, p. Units are arranged according to how advanced/powerful they are, with Q as the hotkey for the Antling, while the hotkey P is used for the most powerful unit, the Antlion.

Testers should find any bugs, from flaws in the game modes/types to other bugs. Found bugs should me PM'd to me or emailed at [email protected]. Quote:
