Tell me what you think of it, the map is pretty playable although it has not been extensively tested since the beta is down.

Download(Removed) it here.
Download(Removed) the twilight tileset if that's what floats your boat.
Edit: wrong map version. DL Link updated.
Edit 2: Map has been published as "Byzantium BW" and "Byzantium (Twilight)".
Edit 3: Map has been updated again, the downloadable versions are out of date.
Edit 4: Map has been updated again, slight changes to how large the chokes are. Downloadable links have been removed as they are heavily outdated. Search TSI Byzantium to download it in game.

I think this worked out surprisingly well the clash of different tile sets kinda looks nice imo:

dunno if u knew about this but next time u make a remake make sure u use the search function first to see if it already exists

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=132500

between us fello mapmakers it would be great if we didnt remake same maps many times and instead try to help one each other out to make 1 good version

u have done a very good job with this remake tho

Hey morrow thanks for the advice, I made this map a while ago but I only got around to making a post about it now since I was pretty busy back then. I'm especially interested in how your map plays since you seem to have an open middle but LOS blockers on the third. I'll definitely check it out once i get my game in 16 hours.

Anyways here was my original post about the map:

oh ye i see now u were 1 month ahead of me. i guess it can slip by when u have so many maps into same thread. o well looks like hypocrisy :D
as a player i wouldnt care too much if it was played on ur map or on mine since we almost made them identical. i guess the major things making them different is that ur mineral only is a mineral only while mine has a gas while mine calls itselfs a mineral only and lets the haters hate xd. also ur 4th base is a little bit more shaped to defend it easier, more like it was in byzantium while mine feels more open. ive been thinking about updating that :D

This one is better then the SC:BW version, the original one was way too big and stale.
This version actually uses the space effictively and looks amazing.

Good job, looking forward to downloading it and playing it on launch

looks fantastic. however, i'm not sure if mineral only expos have a place in sc2. i think it would make sense if expos that were mineral only in bw were given 1 geyser in sc2

The map has been updated. Just search Byzantium BW or Byzantium Twilight to play them.

The update includes minor symmetry changes, and an additional gas to the previously mineral only thrid.

Regarding Blizzard, I have no idea if they will implement community made melee maps into the map pool- hopefully Right now, the custom game situation is very bad for promoting melee maps so... we'll have to see if they change that.
