Seriously, your mapmaking is awesome! I saw your other thread with maps, and they all looked fabulous and relatively well balanced and now you add this map which also looks really good.
I like how you mixed the sizes of the main base, leaving paths for reaper harass, which is a nice touch to give each race a lot of options.

not sure if i agree with the smaller mains on a lowered main map..

but i like the way tanks cant see anything without air support, and can see all the way to CC with it :-)

also, high grond in the center favours map contorl/pushing a lot more than most of the blizzard maps do. another interesting feature.

The main should be somewhat spaced from the "mainland" so it's still big in effect but has a buffer of non-droppable/buildable terrain around it to ease a little bit on the in base proxy/drops and such.

Tanks f.x. stationed on the outer rim overlooking the main should not really be in range of much if anything at all.

I registered to say that I think this is a really good map. I think the worries about drop play being favored or the size of the mains are a bit overblown. The main has to be a tad big to make Nydus a threat. I'm not seeing this as wildly out of control.

The thing I like most about the map is how the center is completely open, zerg-surround heaven. Most maps neglect this nowadays. Its fantastic this is counterbalanced by the fact there is a narrow, terran-friendly corridor extending around the center. In short -- players have to choose whether to take the quick path across the center and risk the surround or to take the long path and hope they're not bypassed. I like it.

Being able to siege the natural is bad, but by all means, let them siege the third. That's what thirds are for.

He saw through the plot, been refining this cannon build for a long time now!

Not sure if I'm going to keep the siegeable nat but right now it is BARELY so, you can hit like 1 hex of the cc if you get vision, this is nothing like lost temple cliffing (you can't hit any workers)

Might move the 3rd about a bit so it's more easily siegeable from the low ground on the other side and then also get rid of the nat sieging oppurtunity.

This map is sexy. I am not going to lie. Probably one of the only maps suggested that severely does not need anything to be changed.

And I love it can look like a flying squirrel or a pony

Pwetty looking map. Working my way up from lower ground is a scary but interesting concept.

id love to test this map


Can't wait for blizz to sort out the custom maps so we can finally test actualy maps rather than shitloads of slightly different turret defences.

Hmmmm. Will 1 base play work on this? I mean with the main being on lower ground and all.
Watch the minimap.
