I'm not sure about those mountains between the HQs, if its good this way, if I should use breakable pipes, or if I should remove them, same thing with the rivers |

I think no one is going to go to the airports at the top since there is two reasons why they probably wont go up there: 1 they can HQ rush. and 2 it will take forever to get up there and break the pipes. also the citys in the middle are pointless. |

I don't think HQ rush is a real problem in this map, since footsoldiers are the only units that can reach the enemy's HQ without the need of a lander. To take a long time to get to the airports was intentional as an attempt to make naval units a real option (even knowing any ship you build is 1 day of funds or more) Maybe, in the way the map is, the time to take to the airport is too long, but I want to test it before I make changes, maybe opening the way closed by the rivers, or adding a neutral base closer to the airport or removing the pipes. and the cities in the middle are not useless if you have a T.copter, I made it so you have more reasons to want the airport. I'm just worried about having the airports too close to each other making it easy for soemone to have both. thx for the comment and sorry for such a long comment... |

Remember they can build Rockets and make the HQ rush one sided.Basicaly whoever gets a Rocket first has a advantige in HQ rushing.And don't feel sorry for me haven to read you long comment....I feel sorry for your fingers lol. |

The main problem is there is nowhere to fight. You need to have a relatively large area of the map that both countries can reach without using landers. Otherwise the map will just be really boring... |

yeah... I didn't think about the rockets, it's not a unit I use much and it's true, the map is very boring the way I see to fix it without redoing the entire map is to completely change that middle island and make it not an island, add bases close to it and probably remove the rivers or bridge them. EDIT: ohh, and I have a question, if put a 'ghost' unit on a port what happens? will it work like a bridge where land and sea units can pass? can someone capture it? and can someone build something with it? ok maybe more than one question... EDIT 2: maybe preowned landers can help too, but I'm talking about like 3 per side to make the map more playable, but Idk how it would imbalance the map |

Ghost units prevent players from building on that port/airport/base/city so ghost units are mostly for Hachi and Sensei to block their SCOP and COP.But they can still capture the building. |

The map is kind of a lost cause right now. The outer ring is too narrow to have any kind of interesting fighting, and there's not really going to be a good fight in the middle because naval units suck in general. You'd have to make the outer land ring wider (extend it into the center 2-3 spaces) and reconfigure the bases a bit. If I were you, I'd just make another map though. =) |

nahh... too lazy for a new map...=p I just did some crazy stuff to make it at least playable added bridges to make vehicles able to move with no landers turned 1 city into a neutral base above the river and one of the starting bases into inf base and, inspired by a map designed by someone frustrated with the fact boats cannot go into rivers (not sure if it was a walker's map), I did my way to make boats able to cross bridges and also the montains in the bottom of the map are not so close to each other now, I hope it helps with the HQ rush problem |
