The long awaited release of StealthBot v2.7 is finally here! There is no list of new features posted anywhere, but a couple that I saw was the StealthBot Launcher that lets you load many StealthBots with different profiles, and the automatic BNLS server finder. Try out this bot for moderating your StarCraft/Diablo/Warcraft channels and post back here to tell us how you liked it.

Tandem StarCraft is a new 4 player map, made by Chef from Teamliquid.net, inspired by the game of Tandem Chess. In this map, there will be two separate 1vs1 melee games played. On the left side is player 1 vs player 3, and on the right side is player 2 vs player 4. Now here’s where the fun part is: when you kill one of your enemy’s units, your ally on the other side of the map will gain that unit to use! This goes the same for your enemy too; if your enemy kills your unit, the unit will get converted to his ally’s side. The game ends when one player of a team dies.

This is a fun map where you can practice micro and macro with a partner. Observers can also join to watch. Just pick your units at the top left corner, and they will pop up in the middle for you to use. Basically, anything you want to try out, can be done in this map!

A new version of BWChart was released yesterday with a minor update. The program now has a checkbox for showing the in-game chat saved in the replays. Remember though, only replays since StarCraft patch v1.16.0 have saved chats.

I’ve just came across an interesting 2 player shoot-em-up arcade game called Mission Craft. According to arcade-history, this game’s sprites, animations, sound effects, and background music are all taken from Blizzard’s StarCraft Brood War and Warcraft II. Take a look at the game play video below.
If you want to try out this game for yourself, you will need: the Latest MAME and the Mission Craft (version 2.4) Rom
Enjoy!

Sometimes when you create a game on StarCraft, a few people will join… but you want to wait a little bit longer for more people to play. After a while, you realize that nobody else is joining your game, so what do you do? You probably say remake, or rm, and you cancel the game that you just made so that you can create the same thing again. However, you don’t have to do that!
One way to get more people to join your game if you want a full house is to just close all the open slots, and then reopen the slots again. This is called refreshing your game.
Another way to refresh your game, is to just tell someone in your game to leave and come back. You can tell him/her to rejoin or rj. This method of refreshing is faster and better if there are a lot of empty slots and you don’t feel like opening/closing them all.
You know the game list on Battle.net is always updating. It’s showing the newest games that were just created, which will keep on pushing your game to the back of the list. By refreshing your game, it will help bring your game up to the front of the list so more people will see it again, thus you’ll get more people to join.
These 2 methods of refreshing work on Battle.net, and also in Local Area Network mode. Next time you are waiting for more people to join your StarCraft game, try refreshing it!

BWHF Agent was updated yesterday to version 2.50 which now includes a player matcher tab. If you haven’t heard of this StarCraft utility before, it’s basically a super-featured-packed version of BWChart. Anyway, this new feature allows you to pick a selection of replays from your computer to have the players analyzed and compared. The end result shown is a matching probability for the players. Download the program below and check it out!
