    Sounds like fun Imagine. Looks like a great map.

    I'd be down to try it sometime. Let me know when you're ever on (EST TIME).

    I finally tested this map with a full house, however a glitch was found and I am working to patch it up. After that, I will test this once more and the download should be ready!

    I usually play on US WEST, but I also have accounts on US EAST. Also I made a huge change to the game that I think will put a lot more pressure on the runners. The game will now feature two Storm Assassins instead of one and if a runner decides to back stab an ally, the game will end for all.

    AHHH TKs end the game! RUUUUUUUUUUUN!!!!!!!!

    In my opinion you should take away one of the hunter's abilities. The cloak or the ensnare should be enough to catch the little bastards.

    That's an option that I am willing to take since there are now two Storm Assassins. Ensnare will be removed while the cloaking will remain. Also if there are more than two instances of Storm Assassins at any time in the game, the game will end in defeat. This way, those who are curious will know not to do it again.

    I also understand that there will be malicious users who will do this if they are tagged before the game ends, but they will also be a rarity (I hope so.)

    Well..... couldn't you just include a trigger than if a TK occurs, the TKer dies and isn't respawned???

    Or you could set a defeat condition of killing a team unit. Or killing the probe/SCV with a probe/SCV lol.

    Any death is considered a kill by the Assassin, I could try this trigger I have had floating around though. Hmm..

    EDIT - Figured out a single trigger solution, I just need to make sure it works right.

    See the problem with that is when are you are playing as an Assassin and you kill a runner, it is immediately removes your unit even though you did not backstab. The kill condition recognizes everything even when you become a runner.

    I will just include warning messages as I would have to make a whole lot of adjustments to the game.

    EDIT - After posting this, I found a way but I need to make sure it works with multiple players.
