The legacy release is version 1.27, and includes some quick improvements over 1.26.

• Rewrote readme file and created documentation wiki article.
• Updated messages and fixed typo’s.
• Increased second boss HP by 50%.
• Slightly increased the amount of units for several brutal waves.
• Decreased the spawn time of jet waves on brutal from 15-30 to 10-20 seconds.
• Fixed bug in the final wave on brutal that caused part of the units to stay at their spawn points.
• Added air raid siren sound when a wave of jets is spawned on brutal.

As I’m not playing this game anymore, and think the map editor is way to limited, this is probably the last release of this map by me. Have fun playing it though!

In essence, the map, called [extreme] buggy survival, is a so called ‘AoD map’. AoD stands for ‘Art of Defence’, and is a type of map where you need to hold out against a bot (computer controlled player), that’s specially programmed in most instances. Prior to this map, there where two kind of AoD’s: the ones where you simply need to defend against lot’s of enemy units, and the one where you need to kill waves of units before they reach the end of a road (like my AoD’s SE4 and Lagarto). Extreme buggy survival adds a new sort to this list.

The player is given 12 GLA rocket buggies (fast, long range units), and 4 Jarmen kells (snipers), which he needs to use to defeat 8 or 10 waves of units (depending on the difficulty). If al waves have been destroyed, you win, if you lose all your buggies, you lose. The map supports up to 4 human players, to play as a team. The buggies and Jarmens will be divided amongst the players.

This map was originally created by a good map maker, but IMHO bad scripter. A few months ago I re-did it, and released versions 2, 3 and 4. Version 4 has become quite popular on Generals online, which led me to the creation of this new version.

The underneath vid is a recording of a game on RC1 of version 5. As you can see, the buggies where not yet correctly allocated here.

I’ve not released v5 yet, due to a lack of time, but will do this soon.

The first movie is titled Project Chaos Islands. It features the track form an Earth 2160 trailer. You could see this vid as the successor of Project Armegeddon, a similar movie I made over a year ago.

The second movie is titled Chaos Islands – When earths natural recources run out… It’s based on a track from the intro of a small on-line game. I already used this track in an old vid, The end is near, which uses the same text as this movie, but lacks any real vid material.

A few days ago I also recorded the intro of Chaos Islands, click here to view it. You can download the map together with some other cool maps at my C&C Generals maps repository.
