the whole point is you are only allowed 1 attacking unit.... you can't use your queens for AA unless that is the unit you selected...... you have to run away any units that not the one you called at the start... including queens. You also can't transfuse.... since that would be using a unit other than the one you called. You can spread creep and inject lavae... thats it

Just realized that the Queen restriction is actually bugged so you can build unlimited queens. Will fix in the next version.

It is my pleasure to announce you that the Day9's Team Monobattles Mod and the two showcase maps:
Arakan Citadel (Team Monobattles) Extinction (Team Monobattles)
are available on the US battle.net!
Thanks Klishu!
Have fun all!

why couldnt he just remove the queen attack and transfusion like he did with the zergling, then you could make more queens purely for macros sake

omg this shit is 100% awesome, hope it is or will be popular on EU battlenet so I can actually play it.
|
Thanks to Arkeia, the Mod is now available for play on Battle.net US. Get your friends together and give it a try by searching for "Extinction (Team Monobattles)" or "Arakan Citadel (Team Monobattles)".
Don't forget to tell me what you think, as well as share any super replays of your Monobattles!

I think this is what should happen. Unless the zerg chooses the queen of course.

Wow, can't wait for this map to come out for the "High Ground" map, tis my favourite 4v4.
Awesome job so far.
|
Queens should be hatcheries +1 so I can have a creep spreader and pre-build a queen for my expos... and also be able to defend early air / defend from reapers
|
Hi guys, again.
Just a small update: I've noticed a few bugs which I'll fix for the next update: - Zerg players may mass queens regardless of whether they chose it as their unit or not. - High Templar and Dark Templar can morph into Archons, even though the player hasn't selected Archon as their unit. - The unit composition GUI does not use correct ordering sometimes (when the game is not full).
Otherwise, I'm having awesome times! Will try to post some replays although I don't know if the Battle.net system let's you view EU maps on the US servers.

yeah, just make queen a non attack/transfuse unit
|
Is it just me, but the Z selection is lacking the infester :/

That's just in the screenshot from an old alpha version of the mod. In-game, you can select the infestor and there's also a "random" button. I'll update the screenshots when I get the chance.

good job man. Im pretty proud to be part of this and see how many pepole like it. gg
|
Looks amazing will try asap.
edit: I definately think queens should be constricted, if people are really complaining about creep, maybe number of hatcheries x 2?
|
Is this uploaded on SEA?
Great work by the way, can't wait to try it out.

I've updated the Mod and maps now. I've fixed some bugs as well as changed the Queen rules slightly. I still have not made up my mind about how exactly queens should work so feel free to suggest alternatives.
You can now have as many Queens as you have hatcheries, including ones that are still under construction letting players start a Queen while their new hatchery is building.
