The emphasis on this map is obviously on naval and aerial warfare. The two long bridges
are primarily a compromise for people who prefer land battle. You may think that the
roadways, forest, and mountain range at the edges are insignificant and nigh-useless, and
you'd be right: they're just decorations. A little something to make it seem like the map's part
of a greater world. Oh, and no silos this time! >_>

No silos/10

But more seriously, the land bridges are big chokepoints there, either widen them or just
take them out and force people to invade each other with landers. And probably put more
cities in if it supposed to be a major air/sea battle.

I figured, with the bridges, one could send land units over and naval units could assist them.
They're not meant to be practical, anyway. Just a possibility. There are only four bases on
the entire map, two on islands, after all.

You're definitely right about the cities, though. I'll add more.

Update: Added 5 cities to each side, two on new, small islands which require air units to
capture. Shoals...ha! ;>.>

Probably needs a couple more cities a side or there's going to be turns where people build
nothing so they can afford a sub or whatever single unit they want. Anyway looks good if
people can actually build things more then every other day :P

By the way, what's with the Moth's ______ names? What or who is Moth? Why does he
control so much land? Why are countries fighting over it nonstop?
Saltpeter (11/15/2007 02:26pm):
I was wondering when someone would ask that. =) Moth is another name of mine on the
Internet. I use it about as much as Saltpeter. When I made my first map, I forgot that I called
myself Saltpeter here(I tried Moth first, but it was taken. u_u), and used my other name for
the map. When I realized my error, I decided to go along with the convention, anyway. I use
it to make my maps easier to find when selecting maps to play on. Every single map is on
one huge menu, and since mine all start with "Moth's", I have a very easy time finding them.

I'll throw in some more cities, then. o.o

Ah, OK.
