It's the first map I've made on here; I made it as a FFA, 3v3, or 2v2v2 if ya'll feel like
it. Tell me what I did wrong or right, if ya could.

Things you did right:
- Starting with 2 preowned bases and no other preowned properties
- Size of map and spacing of countries
- Terrain diversity is good
- Spacing and # of properties is decent

Things to improve:
- Remove some neutral bases. Like all of the island ones, and at least half of the mainland
ones. One neutral base per country is plenty.
- Contested bases, airports, and towers are generally to be avoided. It isn't quite as bad in
FFA games, but I think this map would work better as a team map. So try to make the
captures of all of those properties uncontested.
- Try not to clump terrain. For instance, the clumps of forests in the middle can be improved.
Try to spread it out a bit more.

That's plenty to get you started on at least.

@walker Hey thanks for the input! I'll try to edit my design a bit and publish another map
but leave this one up as a nice keep sake. I was quite unsure of how much terrain I should
be placing everywhere, so I just put lots. I figured it was better than getting rushed by
recons :P I made the map initially for a FFA with 5 of me pals and realized it could make
a good 3v3 or maybe 2v2v2 once I was working on it.

@demonhands Hahahaha I never gotten to use the piperunners much, so I felt I should make a
map that I'll use them on. The pipes on the outside I actually threw in at the last minute
once I realized I made the width larger than I thought when I drew it and I thought I
needed something to block the boats a bit.

walkerboh wasn't in map committee for nothing. I fully agree with his comments. (5/10)
