Question:Should I switch the bridges for shoals, too?
blozzee (02/11/2010 10:53am | Edited: 02/11/2010 10:54am):
depends on you, if you want landers able to load/unload units right in the middle of the
land, then replace it with shoals
Harmony Bunny (02/11/2010 01:55pm):
Yes, I think you should switch. the central island creates quite a big chokepoint, which leads
to stalemate because of the massive amount of bases you put in the place.
the more shoals there are, the bigger chance you have to successfully land troups on
opponent's side without having them crushed in one day.
the geust (02/11/2010 04:47pm):
Okay, I'll change it after this battle.
the geust (02/11/2010 05:26pm):
Actually, what about removing the port island/chokepoint all together?
Harmony Bunny (02/11/2010 08:40pm):
well, at least move the ports a little... cause if the defender put a diving sub on one of them,
he creates an invincible defensive wall.
the geust (02/12/2010 12:04pm):
Actually, the sublock can be destroyed with a cruiser from the north, so it's not entirely
invincible...
blozzee (02/13/2010 01:44am | Edited: 02/13/2010 01:47am):
you can't build cruiser from the north seaport because there's a shoal blocking the path
under it. Only landers and b.boat able to pass through that. Even if you remove that
shoal, you would notice the middle canal in this map is actually quite chokey though >_>.

(edited away to due map change)
the geust (02/14/2010 02:12am | Edited: 02/14/2010 02:17am):
Okay, I've drastically redesigned this map. No more choke in the north, hopefully. i smell
property overload, though. Also I'm pretty sure my Ocean is too choked...
blozzee (02/14/2010 09:04am):
well I think you just made it more worst than before XD..Mainly because there are too many
forests and the canal that you replaced with shoals doesn't resolves the choke point at
all. Always put at least 3 spaces wide of terrain on the major fronts whenever you're
trying to design bridges or shoals that's connected between two sides. For instance in
your map, a player doesn't need that much effort to block the shoals in the middle because
you only need 2 units to fit in.
Harmony Bunny (02/15/2010 05:46pm | Edited: 02/15/2010 05:50pm):
terrain's very heavy but it's way better. eastern and western shoal tiles are a bit useless
and doesn't look nice but I can't agree with blozzee, there's no more massive chokepoint.
