Haha if you can't defend your HQ with the bases literally right next to them then i don't know
what to tell you. That being said, sami and sturm should be banned (as in most small maps...)

Minor updates made to help improve gameplay.

why is frank right next to the base? its supposed to balance income, not give 2nd player a head start on base...

One, I love that you refer to Frank by name. Two, it's usually convention to give Frank to the base that is responsible for
capturing the neutral base. But I think on this map, you're right that there is some STA as that base also has quicker access to
more cities.

I made an edit accordingly.

PS: For anyone not in the loop on Frank, go to Info > Tutorials > First Turn Advantage. You're welcome.

This is a poorly designed map, there are lots of cheap plays that can be made

The map design itself is not a big problem, but there are occupation traps, and infantry from edge factories should prioritize
moving towards the airport, manufacturing helicopters, and transporting infantry.

Occupying the port not only prevents you from purchasing BB in the first place, but also prevents you from quickly
transporting units.

Moreover, the airport has strengthened the defense of the edge factories, resulting in this map not being a damage race. It's
actually a bit boring to play with

Map has huge bias in Player2's favour which also shows in the map's stats. For first easy fix attempt, remove landers.
