You should probably put this in the custom maps section?

It's actually a really nice looking map, but one slight problem I have with it, which may just be a personal preference, is that once both players get 3 bases their target for their 4th base is likely going to be the same, which provides for games that don't favour massive macro fests. It just irks me a little bit that there are 3 places for both players to take their 4th because the players are likely going to fight over the same expansion, and whoever comes out ahead in that fight is probably going to take the game. I just don't see a game going on long enough to make use of those bases.

I like it. This map definitely looks like it will rely heavily on good army positioning, which is a feature that most of the Blizzard maps lack.....

One problem might be a ZvT or ZvP, where Z wants to stay 1 or 2 bases ahead. After the first 3 bases, they're all pretty neutral, so it'll be really, really hard to secure an additional base. It might hurt Z late-game, especially ZvP. Not 100% sure though, I'd have to play it to get a feeling for it.
