I like it. It is a good sized map, and it has decent battle grounds for tanks and artilleries.

One thing that MIGHT be a problem is if the match goes on for awhile it could be leading to
a draw situation because of all the middle being road: players are not going to want to
attack from the defensless road to the cities, comtowers, and trees. I think it would help to
add some plains, trees, and/or maybe some empty silo tiles to the middle area, rather than
having only road. ...However, I guess doing this kind-of ruins the two road highway.

Nah that shouldn't happen Kruegster because it's a 2 vs. 1 base situation, so each side should
be able to overpower their opponent on one front.

My only suggestion is to switch the HQ to the other side for each team, so that when the lone
base is overrun it isn't automatic game over. Nice map though =)

I don't know about that. The hq's could capture the AF could have a better chace but I don't
think it really fixes it. Might be a maner of oppinion.

If there wasn't the brige I would say you are definately right :). However, with the brige, a
player can move units from his center base to his other front fairly quickly. A player may be
winning on one front, but he won't definatly win if the opponent sends back-up from the
center base.

BTW dorian5, I like the switch you made for putting the capital close to the center.

Ah yeah, you're right Kruegster, especially with the HQ closer now and that outer bridge
between the two sides. I like this map a lot :)

Gave this an 8/10.
