Subject to change.

This map is brilliant.
Mori2 (05/27/2012 12:58am | Edited: 05/27/2012 04:14am):
Might switch the HQs for labs to avoid mass-damage CO repair harassment.

Not sure how big of an issue that would be, left them as HQs for now. Seems
like it could potentially be game breaking, but I don't know.

Meh. Changed for now, rather not risk it.

since when do HQs heal sea units?

What Headphone said.

lol

Itsk I'm dumb sometimes. I'll try to get some test games in tomorrow.

This map plays exactly as well as I had hoped. Very fun. All that
cool potential interplay with the artillery/bboat/city/tower dealie.

Giving it a preliminary 9. It's either a 9 or a 10, I welcome
arguments for either one.

Still not sure what the point of the black boat on the HQ is for. If you had a damaged unit, why
not just place it on a nearby city for faster healing?
Mori2 (07/29/2012 12:52pm):
Functions as a meatshield, delays capture of HQ. Makes HQ defense easier in close games.
Allows repair of a unit during a turn as opposed to repair at the start of your next turn. In
many cases, putting non-movable units on vital properties is used to stop the opponent from
rushing and capturing or harassing it (Sami APC+Inf into early HQ capture, for example), and
while that's not necessarily a problem here, it doesn't hurt.

In short, the HQ Black Boat allows you to play a more aggressive game on the opponent's HQ
front than if it was not there. It doesn't have a huge impact, but it's not there pointlessly.

I like how his account (mori5) has hands down some of the best and some of the worst maps
I've ever made. Weird how that works.
ShiningForce4 (11/28/2023 03:48am):
Hq rush
ShiningForce4 (11/28/2023 03:49am):
Head phone sea units prevent an early cap especially in fog
Mangs (12/02/2023 08:42am):
Great map!
BoshAbout (01/11/2024 05:55pm):

Wdym? (Im a noobszh btwserdzsz.)
SIMΩMEGA (02/17/2024 08:55pm):
Also, why does this map have an average of 5.88. 💀
SIMΩMEGA (02/25/2024 11:47am):
I like to play on chokey maps, so this gets a + from me, alshoerdzszhvhsdzszh its feelsh pretty simplerdzszh to playsz
onrerdzsz, so for now ill give it a temporary ratingszh of 8/10 as a casual, but the simpleness might also be its downside, at
least until you destroy the bboats, which for now seems to pretty slow and late into the gamesh i thinkszdzsz.

Equal income is 21k. Factory first always.
jobriq (03/28/2024 02:44pm):
I hate this map which means it's good
Rutherford Gaming (05/28/2024 02:38am | Edited: 05/28/2024 02:38am):
right now the win rate is exactly 771 - 771, making it possibly the most balanced map in the game.
Super5125 (07/25/2024 02:40pm):
now it is at 1330 p1 wins to 1331 p2 wins and 59 draws, impressive that it still has essentially equal win rates after 2661 non drawn games
