You have to rename the files. The current name of the file is "(4)+++¦ ¦-+»1.0" so just rename it to "Return of the King 1.0" or something and it will work on bnet.

EDIT: Nevermind. I don't know why it messed up for me earlier. It works fine now. XD

Wooow, nice maps!!

Oh and about the scouting problem in Plasma, you just have to select the mineral patch who stands in the other side of the egg wall with you miner and he is going to cross the wall easly.

Plasma looks... weird. I really have no idea of what could happen on this map, or what race could be favored.
I guess it gives plenty of room and time to allow creative players to devise new kickass strats and Bos, and this is pretty neat.
RotK looks cool too. I'd say mutas and carriers will be deadly there. But the many cliffs should allow T to defend fairly easily in early and midgame.
But again, I am a pretty bad map analyzer, so...
I hope both maps are balanced anyways.

T can easily push troops through eggs by landing their buildings on them...

But everyone here probably knows that.

Didn't they make that illegal?

Building trick for T, mine minerals in vision. Proxy factories behind the mains. easy tank harrass, with vision, but you can easily get rid of that problem with a pylon or overlord right behind minerals in a key spot.

You can wall in with one depot if you want.

You can prevent scouting by sending a few scvs to get rid of the minerals, although that just seems pretty tough to do. considering you can scout normal time.

i played a couple games against my brother. I was able to get two factories in his portion. i think some building placements will definitely matter to spot these proxies.

The land building trick is super easy to do. And you can get a ton of dudes over the eggs.

That being said, I think plasma is so awesome already, it will be a map full of awesome games, interesting tactics and creative play.
