WWZ in North America?

Hi, I'm new here, but I play WWZ a lot, so I did a little thinking.

If memory serves, about this same time North America was also under attack by z's. Perhaps it could be possible to essentially transplant the triggers and units onto North America?

You could have the following as countries:

California
Colorado
Texas
British Columbia
Mexico
Minnesota
Quebec
Virginia
New York
and Cuba

And perhaps there are three places for Z's, Quebec City (which has the city inside the "catacombs"), Mexico City, and Iceland.

And maybe there should be several "federal areas," such as D.C., Fort Knox, and Pearl Harbor, which give special benefits to the one controlling them, i.e. special units (secret agents), etc.

As for a possible nuclear strike ability, it could be possible so that when the nuke hits, it does heavy damage, but also causes permanent radiation in the area that causes damage to human units over time-hence, firing a nuke may be a bad idea.

Zombies, to balance all this, can get new guys, and also "fear" which causes fear in nearby human units, causing them to miss a bit more than when fighting other humans. Of course you could then have fanatics that are fearless, etc. Zombies should also have constant refugees fleeing that keep spawning zombies along the eastern and western coasts.

Feel free to incorporate all, any, or none of these random ideas from this newbie, I just thought it would be interesting to see a North American WWZ.

Re: WWZ in North America?

What no illinois? That's pretty lame. It's in the top 6 largest states...population wise.

Re: WWZ in North America?

Probably not new york since the majior us loss was there
I would say more like
Great northwest (Washington, Idaho, Part of Montana, and Oregon
California/Nevada
B.C. and Alberta
Texas/New Mexico/Arizona
The rest of Montana/Wyoming/Utah/Colorado
Alaska and Hawaii
And not sure about many others but I think it would be fun
or mabey go for both americas north and south, more options then.

Re: WWZ in North America?

Re: WWZ in North America?

I'd like to stay within WC3s normal map size because alot of maps that go beyond are way too laggy to be played but I'll give it a try where do you get it?

EDIT: Wait this is just fall of America, the final decision is up to russian and dante, but I think this should be the players

Red:California
Blue:Florida
Teal:Quebec
Purple:Louisiana or Texas
Yellow:Ontario
Orange: Illinois
Green: British Columbia
Pink:Hawaii
Gray:Manitoba or another Great Plains state/province
LB: Mexico


This is just my thought on where they should be

Re: WWZ in North America?

Hmm a WWZ USA would have to be a little more original. What I would love to do is make each player a different government agency, in terms of ones with the power to actualy fight back against the undead.
It would be like Army, Navy, Air Force, Police, Coast Guard/National Guard/Border Buard, CIA/FBI (they would get the alpha teams). Then we would have their analogies in Canada. And they would each get partially shared income. But that's just one idea.

Re: WWZ in North America?

I think there should be states...or generals in control of stuff like East Coast general, Central General Great Plains General, and the like, or we could keep with my idea.

Your idea would make us a WWZ clone set in America. I prefer to make things more original.
