Start Simple... I recomend starting with a smaller map... TD's require alot of triggering, and you need to be rather experienced to get it to work properly...

I Recoomend you jsut start with a basic map, just a melee type with a few simple triggers and 3 or 4 custom made units.

Try downloading or opening an Unprotected map and having a look at some of the stuff in there, but get to know ur way around the editor (Especially triggers for a TD) before u make something big.

first get the hang of triggers, the event - condition - action system. its very simple, triggers do what they say pretty much. you may only need some help with variables (arrays too) and loop integers. the rest are very easy. basically look into triggers and try to make something like when you type "move" or "-move" your units moive to region 1 so long as there are no units in region 1. once u can do a few of those u can do anything. if you cant do triggers but can terrain or somthing, find someone to help you and get started on a project.

Try making some sort of Arena map maybe, simple for beginners and can still get a ok outcome of your work.

i think it would be good for you to make and rpg campaign with cenimatics, saving characters and stuff and all in jass so no lag. ill expect to have it by thursday.
