[red]EDIT: Impervious is the name of the map! Search "Impervious" to create the game![red]

NOTE TO MOD: If a mod manages to see this, could you kindly rename the thread to something like "[M] (2) Impervious" ? I don't want to clutter the forum with a new thread


+ Show Spoiler [Old OP] +

I just finished version 1.0 of my first original map. However, I have no idea what to call it! Help me come up with a name and post any suggestions/feedback :D


Impervious v1.0

Map Features
-Xel'Naga Towers can see each other - You know when you're being watched
-Two alternate paths of attack blocked by rocks
-Main path in a tight choke
-Your side of the map is relatively easy to control until air comes out
-Destructible rock @ the natural choke that can be broken to widen the area (Like Othello in BW)
-LOS Blockers hiding the cliff expansion and alternate paths from the middle ramps (You can't see them on the screenshots, they're too thin)

Changelog
+ Show Spoiler +

Version 1.0
* Named "Impervious"
Version 1.1
* Made the map 2 players. Oops.


I wanted to create a macro-oriented 1v1 map focusing on things like positioning, choosing your fights, and relatively standard play, and that's what I believe I have accomplished here~

Hold the line?

I mean, the distance to both bases is quite big.. except for air/scalers. Also pretty ideal for banelings

Tarpit, The Pits, Crude Well, Coal March, Derrick

I see two black water regions, this is what I'm thinking.

It takes 38 seconds for a probe to get from one main ramp to the other 8D

X-factor (the map looks like an X...original I know).

Frontline

is it me or does this look very terran biased? the gold minerals without some sort of destructible rocks can be very easy to float expo over early on

Make the middle area have a face on the top left and call it Python!

the two triangular water areas in the opposite corners and the messy terrain makes the entire map look like a giant land bridge (known as an isthmus) that's falling apart, thus i'd call it:

Breaking Isthmus
Broken Isthmus
Isthmus Corrosion

you could make the triangles bigger and more messy to give it more of a land bridge look, as well as add more medium-height cliffs in the top left and bottom right corners to give the land bridge a more uniformly decaying look

just mah 2 cents

True Sight. Because both watchtowers can see each other.
I'm pretty sure that if you a drink for everything Day[9] says bejewjaler and baller you will get alcohol poisoning.

What about "Double Vision"? Sounds nice, and relates to one watch tower being able to spot the other

Yin and Yang

Almost looks like the yin/yang symbol. Although it's slightly more squarish than circley.
