I think using VotF could get into thorny copyright issues because of the Ranma characters. Damn League of Lawyers.

Edit: They also played Gundam Century against Zerg  ::)

That doesn't explain why Gundam Century is listed there.

Neat, I recall most of those things. Hell I even helped on some I think, it's been so long ago.

Knowing PCG they probably couldn't figure out how to use the cutom exe.

Congrats to Metathrom and the other CCers, but it is absolutely inexcusable that neither Desler nor Auspex are on that list.

Antioch could be because the site wasn't around at the time of writing.
Desler I don't know.

Hello there, I'm a guy writing an article! I'm going to look through some websites and the recent news pertaining to SC mod/campaign release, and look for stuff that catches my eye. Who the fuck is Desler?

Aaaaaaand that would explain some things, like none of Mesk's stuff in there (no PR) no Desler works (old) and so on.

As for gundam century, do a google search for Starcraft Mod. Its the first one.

We can fix that...

Starcraft
Starcraft 2
Starcraf mod
Starcraft campaigns
Starcraft campaign
Starcraft modding
Now with 50% more lol, 50% more win, and 100% phlail.

Hey, neat.  I was involved in 3 of the 8 campaigns featured there.  Of course, I only contributed title screens for Meta's 'Aeon of the Hawk' and 'The Flame Knives'.  But he seems to have liked LOTC and its 'incredible' production values, which I had a bit more of a hand in... so that is good.

You can, you just need to learn how to craft interesting gameplay/missions/story.

learn good storytelling structure:

Yeah, thanks. I gernerally make good maps, good layout, action. But, I suck at making a storyline and I really suck at dialog, really, really suck.
