I find the setup interesting, however I'm getting BABA tank order. Also I'd like the map to be a bit more frontshift-friendly - maybe the central parts of the pipes could be removed? I think that a lot of the pipeseams are either not worth breaking or not feasible to break.

I was getting BAAB tank order from the original layout, but the map was due for a glow-up anyways. The initial idea was always supposed to be piperunners being a nonzero factor and the pipeseams offering real reinforce timing differences. Hopefully the new layout does that concept a bit more justice!

Definitely better, although I think the middle area is a bit too constrained, so it probably cannot really be used for frontswitching. While I like the idea of making piperunners viable, I think they will mostly defend the HQ when needed. Is that worth the tradeoff of making the middle area choky? I'm not quite convinced tbh.
The corner base could also use some slight buffs I think (like replacing the (02,11) forest with two forests at (02,10) and (03,11) to improve movement options).
