I think the best feature of the map are the large number of viable attack paths while also having an open center. I also like the choice in fourth bases. My Map Thread | ||

In Greek mythology, Erebus (Ancient Greek: Ἔρεβος, "deep darkness or shadow"), was the son of a primordial god, Chaos, and represented the personification of darkness and shadow, which filled in all the corners and crannies of the world. You sure know how to name your maps. The aesthetics match the title perfectly! A very beautiful map, in a gloomy way. I wholeheartedly approve. =) | ||

I like your texture mixing in the bases too, nifty pattern. | ||

Though the dark aesthetics were kind of a natural decision considering the texture palette I chose. Since I was using a lot of white sands, the black fog counteracts the brightness of the textures. | ||

The way that the natural base connects to the middle and how the middle isn't too powerful (you know, siege tanks...), and the brilliant expansion placement make this map awesome. It reminded me a little of Sungsu Crossing (sp?), yet the middle has its own unique flare. Nice job! I'm glad you like it! It went through a few revisions and I feel as if it turned out really well. It's a good feeling when someone appreciates the work that went in to a map. | ||

For Erebus to be called elegant is quite an honor.  | ||

This map is like Sungsu Crossing, but its main difference is that it is split down the middle, dividing Sungsu Crossing's straight middle attack path into two, which actually changes the gameplay a lot more than I realized at a first glance. Also on a second glance, this map looks a little big... | ||
