It should be "Mechanized Murder", really. OS deploys 32 mechs every day, all of which
close in on each of the four factions. The four countries can try to survive, but in the
end, Sami's mech flood will always win.

Ban neotanks, piperunners, megatanks, stealths, fighters, bombers, and black bombs.

OS, as Sami, deploys nothing but mechs from the bases. The mechs travel through the
mountains and basically capture and explodify everything. The last faction remaining after
the mechpocalypse is victorious; OS should set draw. Or be a jerk and kill the last
survivor. Your choice.

BM has the most favorable set-up, with some of the strongest pre-deployed units in the
game and a com tower. However, the criss-crossing mountains give OS a straight route to
victory. That and BM gets the least funds of all the factions. So Colin would do well
here, esoecially since all of his units are normal strength.

GE gets a solid position and a pre-deployed army. It's a fortress that's hard to break
through, although Sami has the firepower to win. GE also has a com tower, as well as a
solid base of funds. Jess would do well here; she has the strengths of Max and Grit
combined without the weaknesses. Plus her footsoldiers are actually okay here.

YC is the most prepared of all the factions. YC can set up a fortress and get plenty of
intel. The submarines on mountains give YC intel on incoming OS forces. And YC gets an
airport, too. Don't forget to ban everything except for copters! Sonja would do well here,
what with the extra intel and all. I recommend Fog of War to give Sonja a greater advantage.

BH gets a terrain-heavy corner, so OS's mechs will be pretty hard to kill. However, BM's
fortress is the hardeset to defend of all, since many of the cities are out on a limb. Two
pre-deployed neotanks are present to defeat the early waves of mechs. Lash would do well
here; neotanks are her specialty. She invented them, after all.

Comments/suggestions/ratings/hate please? Criticism is appreciated. :)

All airplanes should be banned. T-copters and B-copters should be the only things coming
out of those airports. Although it takes a lot of Mechs to kill a B-Copter. ^_~

I'm pretty sure BH Lash would do very well, though. She's basically Kanbei when on that
heavy terrain near her base. Although yeah, she's much weaker compared to the other countries.

I agree; BM is overpowered. I'll replace those BBs with B-copters then. :)

Thanks for the feedback! :)

I really enjoy the look and feel of the map, but BH seems to be a little underpowered. The only other issue I
see here is that (assuming OS isn't hachi) OS will theoretically never beat BM or YC.
All BM would need to do is to put its black bombs on the bases next to the hq and then fortify the other base to
prevent OS from building AAs or missles from it.
YC would just need to do the same thing, except with airplanes. If they wanted to they could even help the
other three players from losing by producing airplanes.
