Hello, this is my first map. I need some comments on it; any more COs to ban? Is it
unbalanced? Should there be teams? Is it too generic?

This is a fair debut Water Dumple, be aware that my, and other's, standards are quite
high. I'll give you this advice:1. Get rid of the pipes, it will take too long for GE Or
BH to break through, especially if you planned for them to stop YC from getting the bottom
factory and comm towers.2. Give the side shmucks some pre-deployed's too3. spread the YC
cities out more, to give the others time to Beat YC.4.Ban Javier, Kanbei (for YC), and
Grit. update it (you don't have to follow my advice, there's a wonderful map-maker's forum
for you to visit should you get stuck) and you'll get better than the 5/10 i'm currently
giving you.

nirial, its called archery range for a reason
its for the archers (BH and GE) to snipe the GE out

however the 2 comm towers are WAYYYYYYYYY to much
perhaps giving BH and GE a comm tower to balance it out
and also YC will get the comm towers first long before both sides have the ability to
punch thru even one pipe seam
quite good even though with problems and its also ur first map

and i think nirial gave the 1
u deserve 7+ for a starter

I reckon it's BH+GE vs YC....

BUt YC is more than likely to pick Javier, and given 40% def vs indirs, it'll take a long
time..

Well, the only other option for keeping the side armies out for a little while besides
pipes is mountains. And the only way to balance that would be to have a few openings in
the mountains along with a bunch of forests, so that you can't just send a Recon through
at the beginning and kill their infantry. The point is to shoot over the pipe, not break
through and play with direct-combat units. The point is to use Artillery or Rockets and
such until you can whip up a Md. Tank or somesuch to break through the pipe. Also...you
can't spell Piperunner without a pipe!

However, I will close in the Black Hole/Green Earth cities and remove a Com Tower.
