Oh, I forgot to mention… this is sort of the “J2O” version. The original had J2C’s url in it, so I switched that to J2O’s url before uploading.

Electropizza, please.
They aren’t judging it by the name. They really won’t give it less points because of it.

Stupid name as FireClaw already said, but another great battle map by Cmdr. Dats. Just what i need when the winter comes at the shores of northern germany where no beaches are and its raining cats & dogs all day long (greetings to the southern hemisphere :-)
Design is very good and open, as always. Same with the eyecandy. Not much to add. DOWNLOAD NOW, host a server and play to get the summer feeling back (good seven points).

Good level, name stinks. :-P

Well, a nice level, if you don’t care about the name.

Design and eye candy are very well done.
I do find it a bit small, oh well.

Pretty average level. Uses the Beach set actually quite nicely. Has a weird name, but I don’t grade upon names. Just like in ALL of Dats’s levels, weapon placement is scarce. The eye candy is OK but I think the Beach set could have been used better.

Download or not? Your choice. :-)

I must admit, its not perfect, but if there were fewer bees, then the level would just be the stupidest one around. The main reason for few weapons was because all the other ones can get bees very nicely, and we don’t need that. The right path had to be hard, because it was longer. The more the treat the harder it gets.

"The Red Diamond" is a pretty cool single player level that has a good layout and very good eyecandy. Some ideas for using certain tiles are new and original and if you like small details you will like this.
However, i found it a bit boring to play (maybe thats because i’ve seen too many Diamondus SP levels) and as iCED said, "a tad too short" :-)
Very low eight points but still a MUST DOWNLOAD for everyone.

GROOVY! I love the eye candy in this, and the design was great. It uses a lot of eye candy tricks, but the Diamondus set can still be pushed further. :-)

Only problem was it was a tad short and it needed more weapons.

Oh well, to all SP fans: GET THIS NOW! :-)

High 8 points.. almost 9.

No level EVER reachs perfection (even if three of my favorite level makers work on it).

First, I think the eyecandy was used wrong.. when you have black slant across the place, you can see parts of yourself.. to me that looked kinda weird.

Short. Not enough weapons.

In one spot, you can drop down.. and there’s a green spring right down there.. with a LIZARD next to it. My complaint about that is that if you don’t know the LIZARD is there, you’re gonna get hurt. I hate not being able to avoid being hurt :)

Bees were nice.. a tad overused I thought :)

I’d recommend this download.

Not perfect, but hey, you came close.

Very good level pack by Blade. All the tilesets are good quality and there are many usefull tiles. Also the levels were easy to navigate, good eyecandy though sometimes too many weapons. The levels were medium/large size. Overall very good. And of course the music that fits well.

+Levels and tilesets both by the same author
+Great music
+Levels give a realistic feeling

-Too many weapons in some levels

Well really great..download recommended :-)

WOW!!! This is so darn cool! First of all, i’d like to say that words aint worth much here…you have to see all the great stuff yourself! But i’ll try to describe what i saw:
"Blade’s Battle Pack" is a huge compilation of six homecooked tilesets and 10 battle/example levels using them.
The tilesets could definitely be described as "AWESOME!", they are just beautiful with all the drawings and details. I already reviewed most of them when they originally came out so i won’t repeat everything. They just ROCK!!!
Same with the levels: completely terrific! design and gameplay as well as a good weapon selection makes this one of my favourite collections of Battle levels of all times.
But this isnt the end…Blade also added custom music files for the levels and he seems to have a VERY very good taste. All of the modules are from scandinavian trackers and thats why they sound pretty demostylish (in other words: WOW!!!).
To finally conclude my review: this is one of the few MUST DOWNLOADS that belong to "la creme de la creme" of the J2O file archive! GET iT NOW! My congratulations to Blade (member of tha iSDN army ™ ;-). I love this pack and will host it a lot!

See that 9 that this gets as a review? Yup, this is one of the better ratings I’ve given in a while.

Might I say I love the tilesets, not to mention levels and music files. The levels only problem being the fact that the design in them is all the same style so there isn’t too much variety. One tileset bug is the fact that the textured bg on one of them (I forgot which) looks sorta odd on 8-bit. (it has an effect similiar to the textured bg on Colonius night.)

Conclusion: Get this now or you will be banned from J2O. ;-P

Nice tileset, you could do a lot of levels with this pretty cool tileset. Music was good, but not the best.
