And uh... it looks bad for T considering the only places prone to ground vultures are easily choke off-able and the corner expos are worker only. I don't get all the yay mech and terran comments ~_~. Even the area you leave your natural from is super open and widens up so fast. Might become a PvP fest map. Looks like Longinus and Python... and remove everything that made the maps good for T lol. Still waiting forward to seeing bigger maps instead of cutting off mobility on 128x128. | ||

Grand Line 1.0 + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/images/6/64/Grand_Line.jpg) Grand Line 2.0 + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://www.fomos.kr/board/issue/1274935586_2.jpg) Seems they swapped the positions of the middle ramps, and rotated the expos minerals. | ||

I'm curious about PvT. Close positions and cramped spaces, plus an expansion path from one base to the other, conventionally favor Terran. But flat maps enhance early dragoon play (particularly with the close positions!) and islands generally favor Protoss... but at the same time some of the advantages of islands - the easy of defense with cannons or carriers - are limited on Fortress, because the cannons can be shelled, while carriers will be hard to tech on such a small map... Overall, I like the look of Fortress, because it appears to provide options. Close rush positions --> can attack. Island expansions --> can expand without a dominant ground army. Central expansions --> can expand against harass if you have a dominant ground army. And so forth. I'm reminded of Outsider. | ||
