Base-light rendition of Shape Up: https://awbw.amarriner.com/prevmaps.php?maps_id=39995

Still made with FoW in mind. I'm trying to learn more about fog map design, so any feedback is appreciated.

Decent, but I’d remove 2 of the central mountains, could make the center more dynamic
TK8878 (12/02/2021 07:30am):
I see what you mean, though I also feel that the center mountain formation is a large part of what defines this map. I'll try
experimenting with more opened centers in the next few maps I'm working on.

Ended up redoing the center after all, as well as moving the airports.

Redid the center again, now it's much more open and the BB can potentially move around a little. Also shifted other key
properties around to address the possible STA. This map should play out much differently, with less predictability.

It's departed quite a bit from the slim version of Shape Up I initially set out to make, though I believe the inspiration still
shows in some parts.

You know what, I'm just going to make new maps. Too many ideas for one small map.

Leaving this frill-less revision here for now, don't know if I like it enough for it to stay though.
