I love maps with islands, except I don't towers and maps without air. 6/10. 10/10 if
airports and no towers.
Shadow Star (02/18/2008 07:01pm):
I'm not liking the base out on the edge of the map.
I don't think you'll actually need them.
The shoals are a good varied amount. it keeps players on their toes with FoW since most of
their HQ island consists of shoals.
FTA is countered appropriately.
I am curious as to what the Lab units would be. Cruisers? Neotanks? MD tanks?
The Com towers are a noce bonus, even though most of the sea battles consist of Rock
Paper Scissors format. (Battleship, beats Cruisers, beats Sub, beats battleship)
For this map, I did mention that the third base might not be so important, Well, I'd consider
swapping a city for the base, then for another city swap with another port. at the moment,
you have enough funds to get going with that.
Don't add airports, do add another port per country. airports would ruin the map, the seaport,
would make for a nice addition however.You might want a few more shoals on those
central two islands though, on the insides.

I agree on adding another port. The game we played i had all these funds and nowhere to
put them. Perhaps put the port where the useless base is in the corner?

How about I change it to this:

As Shadow Star suggested, the corner bases are now cities, and I've added some shoals
on the tower islands. Also, a second port, at the location mrapex suggested.

Sorry tmassing, but I'm not adding airports. This is supposed to be a naval, not air, battle.
The towers are there mainly because I dislike funds-only islands (Which was also the
reason the corner bases existed).

As for lab units, I suppose anything you want, really. You may want the bigger ground units
to be lab units, or you could make every non-transport naval unit a lab unit.

Finally got around to making those changes.
IchigoKurosaki (04/03/2008 05:01pm):
I like this map for a sea map, I usually don't like them. I really think that fog of war would be
boring here (maybe my prefernce?) I suggest on the island with the Com Tower's the city's
closest to the HQ's and those entire columns turned to sea for easier transport. 7/10
Because of my preferance's for maps. At least it took effort.
