Psionic Citadel v1.0
Made By Coppermantis
Published on [NA] (Arcade)

The Psionic Citadel, as it is called, is a Dominion training facility for Ghost and Spectre operatives as well as advanced tactical weapons. Ghosts, Spectres and Weapon operators are housed in the barrack towers that dot the nearby landscape. In the program's early stages these trainees were in integrated housing, but fights that broke out between Ghosts, Spectres and Operators (which often ended disastrously) forced the three groups to be housed separately.

Just kidding

I think from the overview it looks too dark but then you see the close-ups and it is fine/playable, and looks good while at it.

Balance-wise I don't think it has any major issues. I don't know the rush distance but it looks like a very solid macro map to me. I think if any balance issues popped up they would probably end up having to do with the fact that it's maybe a tad on the turtley/split map side (possibly due to the ramps all being 2 or 3 FF only, and all attack routes go UP a ramp). But nitpicking aside it's obviously a really solid map, gj.

Yeah, the Data>Export Map Image function turned out with different lighting than the actual map.

Also, there is currently a strange bug which causes terrain deformation whenever a building is placed, I am looking into fixing it.

I have made a small update that should have fixed the terrain deformation error.

Decent design, certain aspects such as the closeness of the minerals to the cliff edges makes it a bit awkward but the design is quite respectable. :D
