Ah yeah, sorry about that. I see when I read it that it wasn´t as clear as I intended.

Anyways. I play terran, spawned bottom left. Walled off my ramp, but early midgame I wished to move out with my siege tanks, which couldn´t get past the wall. Therefore, I lifted one of my walling barracks. Ingame I have the build grid on, and when I tried to land the barracks as far to the left as possible I noticed it was not possible to land it on the "column" furthest to the left. Sorry for being unclear, please pm me if you have any other questions about my confusing rant ^^

I really liked how two of the mains were partially paved in the 1st version of crop circles. Any particular reason they all look the same now?

Crop Circle is really nice, I like these kinds of maps that alter the strategy based on starting positions

It's just some decoration. I thought that the big tile didn't fit to the map. don't think too much about these things ^^

I was playing Princess Fortress, and I found it to be a great map, but I had a little issue. I built a refinery on the island on the top left, and my scv got stuck between the refinery and the edge of the island (or maybe some doodad) after finishing construction. Could that be remedied?

no problem. but you have to know that nearly 99% of layouts/concepts have already been made @ broodwarmaps.net :p

however princess fortress is a pure sc2 map, i doubt that sc:bw PvT would be playable for protoss

Aztec is ramp-down into the main/natural isn't it? Doesn't that cause issues with protoss having vision + psi-field to warp in units from proxy pylons from the cliffs alongside the main? I thought that was the reason why nearly every other map has a ramp up into the main.

Other than that, Princess Fortress is beautiful, and Fountains of Youth looks great.

Here's a replay for the refinery issue - it's at the twelve minute mark.

Aztec didn't turn out as i wanted. It will surely be replaced by other maps

Looking at Triforce and I'm kind of tentative on what to say small map very short rush distance it seems like plus not that many open expansions. Limited fly space is an interesting concept but overall seems like terran vs zerg would be rather troublesome with the short distances zero flanking paths tanks in the middle would shut down the map completely. Havent gotten a chance to actually open it up just seems rather troublesome interesting ideas just think the map is a little too small with a decided lack of flanking ability siege + turret + sensor towers in the middle is kind of just GG.

mmm i thought about enlarging middle like this, unfortunaly i won't have enough time to do it before the IMS

grey= enlarged middle
pink= the new backdoor paths
yellow= new golden expos position
green= i'll move the island a bit

I'm a giant fan of Chocolate Cake and Princess Fortress. I might reevaluate the positioning of the XN towers on PF however. Looks like they just give you vision of the platform you're already standing on. Perhaps push them a little toward the center of the map on the platforms?

Crop Circle, Princess Fortress, Triforce and Hades available on SEA server thanks to Plexa
Added (3)Hades to the OP post

I won't make more maps for a while. Princess Fortress, Triforce and Hades give enough variety with gameplay.
Of course i will make updates of my current maps.

I played on hades and trifoce with friends, and while hades was a nice open map that i could feel that i liked Triforce really has the "desert oasis effect" in that its vastly different from any other map out there and as zerg the very map itself made me feel bad.

That said i think maybe strategies will be developed that may work there but i really really disliked the way expansions where placed.
