Haha if you're going to do that then you have to use desert tileset.

He could do metal maybe. Definitely harder than doing water, but really fairly simple still.

Much better job not that i can map make lol


I don't really get what ya mean by this tho lol. Which minerals at the edge?

Ya okay I realised that the third is kinda ass so I'll fix that now. ^^

FYI, on the island you put 3 little mineral patches... people would have to send 3 probes to mine it out to be able to build a nexus there.

Also I dunno why you put the minerals above/below the starting locations at every spot; could've just as easily put them on the sides next to the walls and it's generally more comfortable to play with the minerals on the side.

Have you played that map? Minerals placed at the exact end of a map is hard to split and click to. It may just be w.e map extractor you used sucks and cut off like 5pixles or something but it looks liek your mins are up against the edge of the map.
I have ass for brains so,
even when I shit I'm droping knowledge.

No. Hehe. I noticed a problem where if I just put one, the sides would have space for terran to lift off the CC, land it there, build an scv and mine the middle. You only need to mine out the middle to expand there

Okay Izzy I'll work on that too hehe.

EDIT: Typo

For that, I'd recommend making the three mins at the islands have zero. Then when a worker mines it out, the min will disappear, but the worker won't be carrying anything.

Or...you could make the expo more narrow.

Wait, so do I have to drop three drones just to take out the minerals at the islands? Because it doesn't look like I can just mine the middle mineral to start a hatchery...
hehehe...

The natural looks rather easy to tank from across the cliff. That would be a real bitch in pvt. Maybe it wouldn't be a problem though since other people seem to think this map is p > t.
