Black line: remove ramp, aka. highground only Grey circle: Make terrain unsiegable White circle with black line: move position of base since this is a mirror map I just changed one side of the map Option 1: + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i49.tinypic.com/2hwgodx.jpg) Option 2: + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i49.tinypic.com/wbyws1.jpg) I feel this should balance out ZvT since zerg now has a EASIER 3rd gas but still have two (rather large) chokes to defend, and with option 1 you can siege tanks and make it even harder (but still not impossible) to defend. | ||

The lack of open area makes it hard for zerg to go hydra lurk in ZvP. Storm just rapes in all those small chokes. | ||

edit: we can't play this map. We can both play vs cpu fine but when we join it together we both drop. Tried with a 3rd person too and same problem. Get it fixed newbie  | ||

Tried with a 3rd person too and same problem. Get it fixed newbie Hmm... I'm not sure why that is :S I'll take a look. EDIT: When I open it up with the regular SC editor it says I have one misplaced unit, so I might have accidentally added something that bugged it like that. I'll be reuploading it shortly. | ||

Efreet 1.1 ![[image loading]](http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/7692/efreet.png) Changes: - Purple circle: 2 power generators(destructible) added to help narrow the naturals choke(also extended the cliff a bit that makes up the other side of the naturals choke - Blue circle: Narrowed the terrain some more here for help defending your 3rd gas - Green circle: 3 Temples(destructible) added to narrow the large ramp. Helps defend the 3rd more easily as well. - Yellow circle: Edited terrain where Julmust suggested. - White & red circle: Expo at white circle was moved to where the red one is. - Black circle: Shortened the ramp here like Julmust suggested. Of course I changed the same things for the other side, it would just be pointless to point everything out twice. Efreet 1.1 Melee download | ||

anyway this does feel pretty balanced ZvT, zerg has some hard choises to make but that's the challange! edit: really like the idea with the temples btw! that could be a big fight. zerg wants to keep them alive for the narrow choke and if terran gets it he's in a world of pain! overall: loved it! | ||

 I've only played against computers so far. I'd love to try it out with others sometime today if anyone is willing | ||

Also, if you want to tighten the natural's choke with the Power Generators, you should try out all the different walls (depot walls, rax walls, forge/gate walls) because sometimes, lings can pass through the gap between a building and the power generator (iirc, rax on the left and generator on the right isn't ling-proof). To fix that, you have to use unpassable doodads that will fill the gap. (Look at Katrina for one example) Edit: Also, might wanna make the nat's cliff un-siegeable. Terrans already have it good here :p | ||

-____- eh. the tileset kinda turns me off but the map looks balanced O__O however since the distances between the mains are so long I think most games on this map are going to turn into a 3-4 base 200/200 dukefest | ||
