HQ might be too safe, need to flip the North/South base before you can push, but it could make for a dynamic game

That was the idea I had intended for the map - will have to review some gameplay to see if HQ is too safe even with the flip.

I also think the HQs are too safe, but then again, not every map needs to have a vulnerable HQ. I'm A-ranking this for now.

Removed from Live and moved to B-rank due to several problems:

1) P1 has a city skip available starting on day 2 that allows them to still get the intended BAAB tank order depending on how it's used. This requires pre-planning so the Live tag was removed.

2) The base trade / base kill aspect doesn't really work as the actual frontline is rather small and frontshifting/threatening a frontshift to defend the lone base is quite easy. The HQ and the Com Tower being more or less unassailable is actually a problem with this setup as getting into a winning position looks to be a bit harder than it has to be. Overall more of a B+ map upon re-review IMO.

But most of these problems are easily fixable so getting it back to A+Live should not be an issue.
