This is a casual FFA map from my actual AWDS save file, slightly modified.

To counter FTA, I put BM across OS. BM and OS go before both their neighbors so have FTA.
GE and YC go after both their neighbours, so to counter FTA they get a pre-deployed infantry at their main base.
But what's going on with the extra infantry for BM and YC across the map? Comment if you disagree but here's my logic.

This map, as the name implies, has three fronts. One with each neighbour, and one across the map with the non-neihgbour.
The front across the map, the across-front, is so far removed from your main base and two other fronts, it's it's own thing.

In the OS-BM across-front, OS goes first, so I gave BM a pre-deployed infantry on that base to counter FTA on that front.
In the GE-YC across-front, GE foes first, so I gave YC a pre-deployed infantry on that base to counter FTA on that front.

Normally it would be unfair toward GE if BM also started with an extra infantry since BM goes first.
It might look strange that BM has an extra infantry, but that infantry is not going to do anything else than harrass OS.
That infantry is never going to affect GE and it most likely will not give BM any extra property any time soon.
Same with that YC has two infantry while OS has zero, one of those is just a harasser which only affects GE.

If you have any comments go ahead, just keep in mind I'm not a competitive player and I do realize this map is casual.

Pretty neat map. I think Sami needs to be in the list of bans because of how close the extra fronts are, she has a massive
advantage in the factory capture game.
