Hq cap with Sami could be a bit dangerous. What about a bridge to the hq side nearer the factories.

The Forest and Bridge placement slowing down reinforcements really punishes bad decision-making here. Since the paths are
more open towards the opposing HQ, it makes it easy to forget your own HQ. I might suggest a Bridge from the centermost
Base towards the Comm Tower, but it's fine as it is.

D2 APC can rush HQ

And for JS, the cap stage on the left is a bit dense.
(06,13) (05,15) (02,14) I will move one or two of these three cities to the two possible positions (11,16) (12,14) (without
changing In the case of the overall layout), or moving to the lower right corner is also a good idea.

All that Has been Fixed, Thanks

The hqs are waaaay too vulnerable. All 3 bases and the airport naturally reinforce the side with
the enemy hq. It is satisfying to get an early hq cap but it feels so silly to win before day 15
that way. One gimmick to help prevent an hq cap is building a rocket (move it up one) then a piperunner on your middle base.
The rocket and piperunner can both hit the hq and decimate any capping infantry. You can put an infantry in the river to
protect your piperunner from air units too. This does block your bottom base though so it'll hurt you in the long run if they
decide to ignore the hq. Also, an enemy Sonja can use her power to spot your rocket so that's another vulnerability to the
strategy. Anyways I really think there needs to be a quicker way to reinforce the hq with vehicles. Maybe move the bridge up a
tile or two. Removing the forest by the bridge would be good too. I originally rated it 1/10 which was a bit harsh but I still think
this problem should be fixed.

Removing the Forest or Moving up the Bridge would Mess up a Lot of the Hub area, That is why I did not Change it

Piperunner in Bottom base Cannot hit Into HQ, Unless You're Grit/Jake

This is one of My earlier FoW maps, That is also Why I Forgot about It and Never updated it + The GL Inclusion was a Pretty fast change, so I Did not have Many possibilities to Update it.

For some reason I thought piperunners had 6 range. My mistake. I guess that strategy doesn't
work ;(

P2 is obligated to constantly spam mechs out of their topmost base to prevent P1 from putting infantry on it and scouting 2 of
their bases, which would be fine (though annoying), except P1 really can't do the same, giving P1 a strategic benefit that P2
just has to work around, usually by building an artillery to shell your opponent for trying; in other words, P2 is playing
reactively for the early game while P1 is free to play the way they want too. Given this, i also question why any CO besides
sami would be picked in T4, especially as P2; if you're going to spam mechs, they might as well have better stats. (sami is
more of a T3 on this map just due to the way it plays)
Edit: Sami appears to have been moved out of t4

@aLittleFishy
She's still T4 for FOW though?
Mech Spam from the Middle-Map base does really feel like a meta move since you can have 3 high-defense tiles occupied by
mechs that can defend each other easily. Though I'm still a beginner on AWBW, it feels like I do need to push out mechs at the
expense of opening Tank at turn 5.

When a map has 3.23 in 26 ratings, can you pliz change it or just get it out of the pool because spam the hq just to must stal
with a roket antargetable is realy not fun an all that forest who serve not interest but slow you down is a realy bad disign.
Dredge (12/08/2021 04:07pm):
Map is fine, design has no issues, and thus will stay in the pool.
RiceMuncher (12/13/2021 05:43pm):
Mixed feelings about the map, map can get very stalematey if you camp around your forests
whilst the sidelines provide opportunities for decisive engagements.
Mistakes are heavily punished here...
I personally dont like units taking 3-4 turns to get to the frontline
