I always wanted to make a map like this, and the awesome Galaxy Editor finally made it possible!

(click the images for a full size view to get blown away)
Features:
- Start locations: 2
- Mining locations: 7
- Looks: Awesome
Concerns:
- Open spaces: None
- Balanced: Not at all
Comments:
The huge engine block between the two mains will block air units (as soon as I figure out how to do that), so the air rush distance isn't as short as it looks.
Adding Island expansions would make the map bigger, but even more terran favored.
Due to the model of the Battlecruiser, the layout is pretty much final. I tried to add rocky island expansions with bridges leading to them, but the editor doesn't allow pathing on bridges yet. This would also take away lots of the ambience.
I was also thinking about making a bigger version or even a 4 player version, depending on feedback.
Tell me what you think!

I tried this, but the architecture of the mothership doesn't allow it. there would be huge parts of it obscuring the view while playing to clarify, i made some screenshots: this is the view on a protoss base on a mothership, using the free camera of the editor: ![[image loading]](http://www.abload.de/img/mofoship1muat.jpg) but using ingame camera it would look like this: ![[image loading]](http://www.abload.de/img/mofoship235gn.jpg)
mothership map: not gonna happen (until someone makes a custom model of it..)

Sweeeeet. Looks awesome, but doubt it's balanced (as you noted). Thumbs up dude!
|
man this looks like a somewhat feasible map Lol looks amazing.
|
WHAT.
This looks AWESOME. It's like the dreamliner map, but for SC2. And with moar Cattlebruiser. What a frakking awesome concept for a map. 
I'm concerned with the gasses on the natural. What's up with them being so far apart? And the 3rd feels super far away.
|
I am blown away. I can't wait to play this.
|
WOW.... while this may not be as polished as the official map set, I gotta give you credits for the idea and details on the 2nd pic.
btw, would the player spawning at the 1 o'clock position be at a disadvantage because the bulge seem to be blocking vision of his main base
|
I don't feel comfortable enough to critique the balance and playability of a map, but this is the first time I feel compelled to post: this is gorgeous. I'm in love.
Do you still get the feeling of playing on a huge battlecruiser even when zoomed in to play mode? I fear a lot of the wow factor might go away without the overview.
|
Even if it was the most unbalanced map in the history of Starcraft i would play this, love it :D

looks like a fake scrap station tbh lol
|
just with slightly different positioning of mineral patches/watch towers
|
Though I really does seem like scrap station it's pretty interesting to concept a map in unit schematics 
|
so um... can we make battlecruisers on this map? o.O
|
Wow the editor just keeps on impressing me

Yes but no more than one as it covers the whole map perfectly.

WOW! Beautiful map, and an awesome concept. Balance issues or no, it would be so much fun to play on.
P.S. - But what happens if you build a battle cruiser on a battle cruiser? What if every battle cruiser has a small battle on it with other small battle cruisers that have battles on them with more battle cruisers?? You're blowing my mind man!!!

This is so terran biased, quick someone make a mothership map next!
