Looks interesting. What exactly is the purpose of the mountain-locked top and bottom bases
though?

Interesting indeed.

NEEDS 2 PORTS

Bamboozle - Continued infantry/mech harassment that forces each army to divert their
attention appropriately or risk losing properly / getting overwhelmed.

mirddes - Not enough water to justify any sea action.

I like the idea of having "offside" bases that can stab you in the back if you're not careful. At worst it's an
interesting gimmick, at best it might add a new flavour to the game.

Personally I would relocate a couple of cities to the central island to make it more contested. As it is it's prone to
arty vs arty stalemates, I would think. And I'd also shift the airports back a couple tiles - right now they're a little
close to each other, a fighter positioned in home territory can potentially attack a newly built enemy aircraft. Also
I'd open the airports up a bit - they could be blockaded by enemy t-copter + infantry, though I guess you have to
be pretty skilled to pull that on your opponent.

Nice map overall, I'm sure it'll be better with the suggestions.

My problem with the locked base is that it's practically impossible to take it. You pretty
much have to send in a stealth to do so. It would be semi-interesting to add a port or
pre-owned lander for the non-locked base so that they have the option of sending land
units in to rush the base, but there isn't really enough space with the way the map is set
up now.

Everdan's suggested changes would improve the center, but I think the airport position is
fine. Realistically if you're in a position where your fighters can attack the enemy
airport or
block the airport with a t-copter, you already have a heavy advantage and should win.

Gave a 7/10 and A-Ranked in conjunction with the above comments, let me know if you make
edits and want it reevaluated.

Shouldn't the top left infantry be one space up?
