I was thinking of Starcraft the other night (the original, not 2), and remembered this modded map me and a buddy used to always play, but i can't remember the name of it..
you started off with an unlimited number of cannon fodder units (Zerglings I think, can't remember for sure though), and at the top of the map there was an inaccessible section where you would see numerous more powerful units on pedestal like things with a couple marines (at least, i think they were marines) at the base of it..
every so many of the enemies units you killed, you would get a marine spawned in that upper area, once you got enough Marines to match the number at the base of the unit you wanted, you moved them over to it and you exchanged them for one of those units to add to your army..
goal was to destroy the enemy base..
to anyone who played the original Starcraft, does this modded Multiplayer map sound familiar at all? do you remember what it was called?
