OMGWTF FOURTH ACCOUNT

I don't know how well this will play out, so I'll need to test it. I'm sure there's a symmetry
mistake somewhere, so if you spot one let me know, and I'll fix it.

Piperunners are NOT in range of pipeseams, and breaking them early would probably be a
mistake, as your enemy can assault your HQ. Also, ghost penguins on pipes.

Concept slightly based off of one used by Metalic_Dragon. If you can save your HQ area in
time, it can serve as a healing area with those black boats.

Also, notacrappymap/10

i havent deciphered whats going on in the corners yet (so i wont rate)... because i was a bit
distracted by the maps shear size. Is all that distance useful in some way ?
DuelStriker (08/26/2008 11:53am):
The corners are the HQ areas, and they can be broken into by the enemy if you're not
careful. You have a small number of units which will be overrun if you're not quick enough.
The black boats serve as healing points for your units. Basically everything that's been
stated in the third comment...

Maybe you could rename this map "Post Soviet weapons junkyard" ?

You've got a black boat on a missile base, that will have to be dragged away by infantry like
a beached whale, a cruiser rusting on a pipeseam and a great heavy, immovable piperunner
stranded on hilltop surveying the wasteland, like a dying martian.
DuelStriker (08/26/2008 03:49pm):
...that's the point. The black boats are on silo tiles that are already launched. The cruiser can
help somewhat against air units if they try to break through. The piperunner helps defend the
HQ, and it's on a mountain because mountains provide 4 defense stars.
