Well, as you can see this is mostly a naval map. I thought i might try and go a little
bigger on the scale and this is what turned out. I made sure not to cramp the space for
ships like other island maps. Its my first island and naval map so, criticism recommended
and apperciated!

The Shoals make the Seaports useless for anything except landers.

Get rid of the shoals surrounding the seaports, and It'll be a good map.

Otherwise, great map.

Yep, dagamer speaks the truth. However, there might be a strategic use to the ports. Build a
few landers, then, when you feel like going out on a limb, build a battleship. Sure, It'll block
the port, but you'll still get your money's worth out of it-but, I would suggest removing the
shoals in front of the ports as well. Great map.
We begin at 10:
10
-2 for the shoals surrounding the ports.
-1 for no reefs.

7/10 You seem to have a knack for map-making. Perhaps a job in Cartography would be
your style?

More reefs. It is still a bit thin. Also, the map might be too big and action will be slow. I'd
put smaller outposts of each country near the HQs to have little brawls within the first
couple of days (Just put a base from each country)

Edit: Oh and Bomber Man, map making skillz here wouldn't translate to cartography (You
don't make up terring on real maps!).

hehe, I thought someone might say that. Yeah, I know. It was a joke. Oh, and Psychotic?
excellent map now. 9/10 Couldn't have done better myself.

i like it, i don't like airports on a mostly naval map though, it gives battlecopters a really good
reason, you hide them in your cruisers.
and with the addition of black boats, your copters are goign to spend a lot of time alive.
8/10

Great map, best with cross spawns for teams IMO, but it can be a fun free for all match as well if you want
