It's time to vote once again! September 2014 has brought us a great number of excellent maps. I might even go as far as calling it my favorite month as of yet. There are several maps that I would consider a worthy winner and it's going to be exciting to see who will claim the title this month!

Here's our favorites of September:

Voted for Orichalcum eventhough this trend to put roads on the ramps has to stop.

Yea, It's almost as if they were made for ramps :D

I went with Sanctuary, but I like Orichalcum and Catalyst a whole lot too, curious who'll win.

Voted for Sanctuary. Similar concept as Orichalcum with the gold base but 2 big differences stood out to me on Sanctuary that I liked:

1) the gold is harassable from the cliff
2) the gold is in the opposite direction as the standard expansion pattern so you need to spread yourself thinner in order to take it.

It was very close though, I didn't like how closely 5 bases are clustered on Sanctuary, but I thought the idea with the gold was superior, also the decoration is more awesome
vibeo gane,

Gotta go with Orichalcum for sure. Aesthetics are simplistic, but the map itself is some of the cleanest execution I've seen in a long time -- my other favourite being Neo Sol Dios, but looks like that map didn't make the cut.

The maps all pull from a pretty similar set of features. It's interesting to see how much Foxtrot Labs has influenced us ^^ It's definitely produced some of the best games that I've seen recently.

I felt like that too, that's what made it pretty hard to pick just one, aestetics had to tip the balance.
