EDIT: No complaints on the rest of the map and the above is purely speculation so disregard if you've tested the hell out of it | ||

EDIT: No complaints on the rest of the map and the above is purely speculation so disregard if you've tested the hell out of it I'd like to test the natural cliff more than it has been. The jury is still out. A bunker doesn't wall it off where it is smallest, but there isn't much more room. I could make the smaller section unbuildable if it proves to be a problem. | ||

Other than that i really think the ledge of the natural will be really problematic. But i have no suggestions to improve it. | ||

(3 or 4 low hp and 1 or 2 regular for a block off (requiring extra player apm / strategy) instead of just 1 unit to have to work on is the way of the Gosu mapmaker..! + Show Spoiler + hilarity all around | ||

The only change I would make is adding rocks to the ramp that leads to the corridors on each side of the map. | ||

 If you feel the cliff above the nat is to exploitable just make some parts of it unpathable and lower the surface area (and fill it with doodads like you nicely did on the rest of the map) (are those LoSB brushes beneath the stones Oo). | ||
