Description:
8 players race to space while clinging to survival.
Will you choose to reach for the moon or eliminate your competitors?

Objective:
1. Keep units alive; don't die by route.
2. Secure a port to access the airports.
3. Use Ports to capture an airport
4. Capture Labs to unlock Bombers and T-copters to break the seams and claim the moon!
-Note: there are only 6 for 8 players, so be sure to prioritize this quickly!
5. Secure the opening created so that others don't use it to undermine your lunar colonies.

Rules:
0. Standard non-Fog
2. Lab Units: BCopters, Fighters, Bombers, Rockets, Battleships, and Stealth
3. FFA / 2v2v2v2 / 4v4

Very interesting concept. I’d infer that it is best played on standard, otherwise the problems with immigration maps (ex.
accidental competition of bases eventually leads to certain players having a disadvantage due to chance.) could be present,
and there wouldn’t be as much competition for labs. First turn advantage is present in this map as well, but I really can’t see a
way to remedy it. Thanks for making this great map Cadeor!

I was going to write a convoluted comment on how a player could be left out, but realised that's
why teleports exist, anyone can pick any base, not just a rough directional plan.

I do like how there is a goal everyone can work towards and not just a lengthy rout/buddy up to
draw.

I'd just ban Stealths here since lab owners already have a massive advantage in having
sole access to fighters and bombers. It turns lab ownership into a win condition, rather
than an advantage that bolsters a player's game.

Good point Meta Rexy, I'll update the intended map rules
FunnyManInAClownWorld (07/24/2024 06:00pm | Edited: 07/24/2024 06:01pm):
how are you suppose to capture the labs without tcopters
Cadeor (07/25/2024 02:06pm):
Good point, that was a huge over-sight. it was designed to not require labs for t-copters but i wrote it that way in the description.

Whoops! T-copters should not be lab units!
