I'll write extensive wiki entries/updates on the new maps next week (no time before that).
For now, just some raw technical data:

Hazard Black:
- backdoor and centre expansions have 2000g + 6x1248m each
other resources are standard
- natural backdoor is blocked by 4 eggs with scarab gaps (i.e. Reavers can shoot past them), 16x0m stack is visible from low ground for worker glitching

Heartbeat:
- islands have 2000g + 6x1250m
- neutral expos have 3000g
other resources are standard

Quintessence:
- central expansion has 2x2000g + (8x744+6x496)m
other resources are standard
- backdoors to mineral only expansions are blocked by 8x stacked Power Generators (800hp, repairable) with Scarab gaps and have two 4x0m stacks to allow unit glitching.

This is so awesome! I hope this tour will help community to recognize foreign maps and they will start to use them instead of looping again and again korean maps from past. Fix "Demain" to "Demian" so Hermann Hesse won't be ashamed : )

Koreans have no names? Their maps just kind of appear out of thin air, like their skills?

Anyway, hopefully a lot of players sign up, it sounds like fun.

As of now we have 10 players signed up:
[image loading]

Trutacz i gave you a A rank for the new rank since there was no laddering obviously and it would affect the system.
Mca i bumped new rank to C+ ;
Let me know if theres any mistakes.

Also i encourage players with low ranks to sign up. If you check out the ranking system you will play most likely vs a player of your same skillz.
