This is a 3P FFA map which should actually finish!
So, how does it work?
Each of the three players has an offensive front (where he should win), against the player
before him, and a defensive front (where he should lose) against the player after him.
The first player who captures the ennemy HQ wins, because the way will be free to the
other player's HQ. Moreover, he gets a free missile to stop a capture attempt on his own HQ.
COs like Hawke, Drake, Olaf, Kindle, Sami and Rachel are able to win if they start
capturing their ennemy' HQ one turn after.
If someone resigns, the player who was attacking him wins.
Oh, and you might want to ban Stealths, because only the offensive side has airports.

I wonder if anyone will be crazy enough to destroy their own black boat and make a battleship.

Actually, I'm not even sure the B-ship thing would be a winning move. Indeed, they can
destroy B-boats, but the other players might retaliate by destroying the B-boats leading
to the B-ship owner's HQ...
To avoid problems, make sure to ban battleships :D

Replace the black boats with subs, and that should fix the problem as well, since the subs
can just dive and avoid taking any damage from anything.

Also, the pattern in the pipes is purdy.

great idea.
is it finished or do you want to change something?

PLAY!!!

Actually, I made a first version with subs, and then decided to replace them by B-boats
because the subs would have cost too much to repair against mass-damage COs like Kindle,
Drake, Hawke and Olaf. They would also attract Rachel's missiles, Sturm's Meteor Strike,
and VB's EX Machina.
By the way, the map is finished, you can launch a game on it if you wish :)

Racheal's Missles all choose diferent targets. One hits where it can do the most possible
dammage, one attacks where it can hit the most enemies and one hits where the most
infantry are. with the units there I would not be surprised to see the second and third
ones still hitting them.

this is one of the worst maps ever! you lose ifa black boat is deleted at the bottom. that
just happened to me! I give it a 1, but i would go lower if I could. >:(
DJ-Moogle (05/27/2013 02:55am):
Kinda odd how a player can just delete a black boat and leave a totally different player's
HQ vulnerable...
a9977321 (01/10/2018 07:49am):
If a bboat is deleted, the player moving after the bboat owner(exactly the player
attacking him) will benefit from this. So it is not really an issue. You can hurt the
player you're after by doing so however. It might be an option when he is about to crush
his opponent, and you can award the vicotry to him by doing so.
Scurge (04/16/2019 01:28pm):
This map deserves more recognition( and the 'Innovative' tag) as the only problems with its set-up comes from players who are: lazy, getting booted( and/or AET'ed); sore losers, resigning when losing any battle; or dicks, deleting their black boat to leave someone else's HQ open to the other opponent, all of which are outside of the map-maker's control. As for those playing, you should really expect that some others will do one or more of those, as unfortunate a truth as that is, so be aware of and think about that before you jump into joining or creating a game on this map.

I'd normally be torn between giving a 9 or 10, but - given the people who've given it low scores for little-to-no reason - I've rated it a 10.
Excidium (11/24/2021 06:10pm):
If Orange Star deletes their BBoat blocking Green Earth's HQ, Blue Moon can immediately begin capturing it next turn. Green
Earth then loses, allowing Orange Star to cap Blue Moon's HQ.

I don't think there's any way for Green Earth to win, tbh, unless all players agree not to delete BBoats.
Lost and Found (01/27/2022 11:13am):
Call this a hot take, but I don't think maps that require consent of all active players
belong into the non-Toy Box A rank cathegory.

Moved to casual play.
