Checked an updated map 23, the giant mech seems to work a bit better and fits through the door of the installation section... An ok map, even if weapons are still a bit clunky
Well, life has tied me up for the foreseeable future. Future maps may or may not happen. I simply don't have the time to play games anymore, let alone delve into the editor. I've been here since wol beta too. This sucks.
Anyway, I guess I'll dump the remaining ideas I have here. Maybe someone will get inspiration. Who knows.
- the Great Roach Migration. Brood of bane vs a massive army of roaches. Defense. Boss is Papa Roach, complete with album references. I actually made this one, 90% done.
- faction: Onoboru's pack. Primal zerg. Totally not Japanese samurai esque. Catchphrase: YOU DON'T FIGHT WITH HONOR! Teams up with Marauders sometimes, ie they aren't total Jerks. Speaker is Onoboru, using Brakks model. Music is Japanese too. Teal.
- faction: Central. Terran. Focuses on singular powerful units, aided by swarms of nabobots. Think Fenix's heroes, plus the equivalent of 1 zergling split in 10 as swarms. Playable. All robotic focused, with large mechs. Speaker is a business contractor whose always professional. Music from Armored Core. Black.
- faction: Thuggish Marauders. Evil Marauders. The Defiling Ruler leaves for good to form his own faction. Music is things like DMX. Red.
- faction: traditional zerg. Brood mother Az'at. Purple. Brood mother is constantly confused about what's happening
- faction: Xel'Ravers. More fleshed out. Mostly the same as now. Basically Nerazim. They like raves and long winded preaching. Not playable
- faction: snowblowers. Archons, replicants, sentries, disruptors if I see a good skin for it, tempests, custom archons. Blowing...snow all the time. Spoiler: it's actually snow. Also ball jokes. Not playable
- Final fight is a dunk-off between Marauder Prime and Jerkface. While space jam plays. And that other song from space Jam that I can't remember the name of.
- more macro maps like Thrasher no Thrashing.
- Focuses:
--- zurvan model in the center in a pit, everyone is getting slowly sacked to it.
--- using the platform moving from that carrier mission in lotv.
--- bustamove is alive again and holding a concert. Sneakybat infiltrates and let's the Marauders in. Micro/macro map.
--- Jerkface defends ship from zerg attacks. Defense.
--- HERCS added to Marauders. Mining mission gone wrong, attacked by warfoundry. Intro to Central, who is allied to warfoundry.
--- Marauders going hunting on Zerus. Intro to Onoboru.
Growing up sucks doesn't it. I am in a similar situation. I'd love to continue just making mods and playing SC2 all day, but school, work and other real life stuff is forcing me to give that up for most of the foreseeable future. Great work on Marauders though! Truly a gem of a game.
School, imagine what it means when schools done and 40+ hrs work week consumes you. Ditch any girlfriends you may have otherwise time spent on all of this will be next to zippo.

--- Marauders vs Thugs. City street fight.
--- snowblowers interrupt Marauders snowball fight.
--- xelravers rave so hard they crash into brood of bane colony and start trying to preach.
--- stuck in a simulation by jerkface. Several micro challenges.
--- space battle. Cosmorauders that fly around.
But... But... we need more marauders!
No more Marauders! That's a sad news, well i wish you good luck with your life then
This is a very sad news indeed.
I remember when 1st playing the mechanic, such well done micro map.
I wish you the best acidragoon, your marauder will be missed .... 😢

I may or may not return...
Question. Should I dump the current C&C-like mining system and go back to traditional starcraft mining?
Yea. But you should always have fun miner models and mining animations.
Goodbye Marauders! (A single man tear streams down my cheek) May we meet again!

Custom Campaign Initiative
Is there still a way to download this mod?
In reply to bucko3the7man:
Found my answer, it's in the North America arcade, from within the game if anyone else has this question in the future.
