Looks solid. Any reason for the monogeyser expansions at the 3, 6, 9, 12 positions?

Other than the monogeyser thing, I think that mineral-only expansions have not really solidified a place in SCII, and should either be normal expansions, or just scrapped.

I don't really see how they are neccessarily any less relevant than in bw (they may very well end up being but still), one can skip it anyways if gas is needed or take it perhaps later and use it to produce more of whatever mineral sink one desires. The map has a standard enough layout anyways if one ignores the min-only expos so taking the third at either of the "accidentally former monogas expos" wouldn't be too crazy especially if spawning top v top or bottom v bottom.

Anyways, for now I'm just porting the map faithfully so the main has 9 min-patches nat & min only 7-min patches and the other gas expos have 8 patches

This is probably my favorite map concept yet, it reminds me of a map for broodwar thatbi rarely saw played after mid msl's.

Just a quick question but ive been designing a ton of maps and keeping most of them a secret from the tl community until i found some people to help host a series of custom map tournies. Would you be interested maybe? All of my designs are 1v1 Based so having a few good 2v2 based maps would be incredible.

Get at me through pm

I dig the concept it's actually quite a bit like my next map lol (but different enough).

The only thing I would change is that I think the sizes of the ramps leading to the 3 6 9 and 12 o'clock expansions are a little too small. (I don't just think it actually I'm pretty damn sure :D)

Other than that its pretty sweet

TY,

Well the ramps are the same size as on the bw map so I'll keep it like that for a bit at least, it's harder to harass I guess but the gas 3rd's (or 4th's) in question are a bit far though, think of it as taking another main on lost temple (except a bit closer but more open if that makes any sense ;F)
