Best map I've played. Should 100% be SS tier (I might be slightly biased for winning with Adder vs Olaf)


Coming into this I thought those Black Boats would be useless, but they actually came into play a fair bit. Some blocking and quite a few repairs.

Didn't find any opportunity to actually transport or boost any infantry though.


Also what's the point of having those pre-owned properties on the islands? At first I thought it was going to be an incentive to capture them to deny income, but it's your own property, so they might as well not be there and have HQs instead of Labs.

Well I guess Labs are harder to defend because of less defense and no repairs? Lab not repairing did come into play a bit in my game I guess so maybe it was a good idea after all.


Anyway I'm not sure how viable it would be at higher level skill levels, but since both comtowers are in the center I decided to go for the middle.

Also I ended up with a logical timing to make a BB and send two infantry to island, so it didn't feel like I had to go out of my way too much just to get the airport.

Yes the pre-owned city + lab setup is to make the "HQ" area harder to defend as it is 3 stars instead of 4 and gives no repairs

I am glad you enjoyed it, I will keep an eye out for problems that arise from more GL games

Definitly a good map, if a bit tedious though due to the mountains around each base. But it makes a lot more interesting and I
like it ^^

The 1 tile wide chokepoints around the labs are pretty annoying once you get to the mid game. With air coming so late it's very
difficult to wall break there. The center fight is pretty interesting considering how difficult it is for vehicles to reinforce. The
double comm tower makes it a very juicy target. The predeployed black boats provide some neat blocking strats. Overall a
fairly decent map.

WHY IN THE HELL ARE STEALTHS NOT BANNED

Because they take a million years to get and if they went BB AND got a stealth and got away with it you deserved to lose.

The port is next to the laboratory. I think it should be that we hope to build battleships to assist in defense. The design of
isolated islands is simply to slow down the pace, or it is difficult for novices to find a suitable way to occupy.

The tower is placed in the center of the map and is close to both sides. There are few map cities (6 bases, 38000 funds per
round)

In addition, there is only one laboratory, and the defense of HQ requires players to pay more attention

To sum up, this is very suitable for Sami to play. In fact, the same is true. From the data, Sami is the best commander next to
olaf.

I think because the battle line of the map is very long and the battle point is too far away, the snowstorm in olaf can be well
hit, and there is a lack of troops for urban supplies,

But for personal reasons, the lack of airports has lost a lot of fun,

The marginal zone is suitable for artillery garrison.The central area is open, but difficult to reach.The design of pipeline is
meaningless. No one will take the initiative to lay a pipeline and leave the enemy a way to attack his
artillery directly

Cool map, but I think you should shave off one of those bridges protecting the airport. Cruiser lockdown is a valid strategy.

I say don't ban anything since we can all tell how good stealth fighters are and how op they are without black bombs. If you
didn't know, there is a big fuss about Stealth not being band since only Fighters and Stealth can shoot down Stealths.

Stealth Fighters are like Grits indirects but they are Max's.

mech stream at the corner base surrounded by mountains is kinda interesting, solid way to contest the corners
