Hello, this is a big update of one of my previous maps, Princess Fortress.
[image loading]

This map is bigger than its predecessor, the size is 148*148 whereas the old one was 128*128.
I also changed the tileset, i know it doesn't look like a fortress anymore, just imagine that it was one before and a city has been built around it. :p

Now, important stuff:

- scouting distances:
- Close position:
- Main to main: 36 seconds
- Nat to nat: 21 seconds
- Cross position:
- Main to main: 46 seconds
- Nat to nat: 30 seconds

- Number of mineral patches/gas per expand:
- Main: 8 patches 2 gas
- Natural: 7 patches 2 gas
- Third: 6 patches 2 gas
- Island: 7 patches 2 gas

- Width of the paths via MapAnalyzer
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]


- Main to nat distance with creep tumors
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

Two creep tumors are needed to link the main to the nat.


- The natural
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

Natural's ramp is 14 squares wide, note that the nat is on highground, that gives an advantage to the defender.


- Reaper Climbing
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

There stairs are here to help the reapers a little more, without these stairs, the path for the reapers would be really small.


- The area in front of the nat
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

Three very separated paths lead to the nat, two large from the plateaus and a tight one from the middle.


- The plateau
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

The plateau gives the opportunity to take an expo relatively easily and also the control of the xel naga tower, these towers don't give vision to the lowground path.


- The middle
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

Four paths lead to the middle, it is large and flat. The entrances to the middle are tight and quite long chokes.


- The islands
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

The islands are blocked from floating buildings with 2 mineral patches with 5minerals inside them. Collect the central one to build your nexus/hatch/CC


- Where can the tanks shoot from
+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

[image loading]

At least it's less than in the most blizz maps.


- The Expand layout
+ Show Spoiler +

This is how i would expand during matches on this map.
Expand layout for players during close position match.
RED: Player1
BLUE: Player2
CIRCLE: Start location
CROSS: Expand
PURPLE CROSS: Expand harder to take for each player.
YELLOW: Short route
ORANGE: medium-sized route
GREEN: Long route
[image loading]


Expand layout for players during cross position match.
RED: Player1
BLUE: Player2
CIRCLE: Start location
CROSS: Expand
DARK GREEN CROSS: These expos are more ambiguous because of the same distances from the third expo.
YELLOW: Short route
ORANGE: medium-sized route( Nore that there are 2 medium-sized routes)

Island expansions can be taken by an OC with SCVs loaded inside, is this intentional?

I don't think theres room for the CC to land (thus the two mineral patches).

almost every map a siege tank can shoot into the main rather easily... from many locations. this map u should worry about that very little so why ask that i dont know.

anyways, the map looks... good. id like to play some games and see how it flows.

There isn't, this is the purpose of the second mineral field.

You mention they have 5 minerals in the patch but if you load up an OC with scvs you can drop them mid air, have the mine out the patch and then land your CC. Alternatively if you were really determined you can build a refinery, mine gas and minerals until you can land your OC.

You can't drop mid air though.

This is retarded.
I also noticed that you can land a mule and collect it.

But thats a clear advantage to Terran early 3rds.

Oh yeah, mules would work too... Maybe 500 hp destro. rocks?

Seems the island problem would be solved with destructible rocks...

Well I just read this edit:

Problem is there is no easy way to change the hp of the rocks, maybe some custom triggers but I tend to stay as far away from those as possible when making melee maps.

Neutral buildings. Barracks could do it, they are 1000hp.

The only problem I have with that is you now have a barracks on an island expansion, and that's just weird...

Ah, i know. The destructible Garage has 400hp, large garage 600hp, destructible statue has 200hp.
200hp is too low imo but it would look like in a cool way ;D

The 600hp large garage is the best imo.
