This is a copy of the first map I made in AW2 map edit mode, just messing with it and
trying to make something that would be good in FOW and normal and with all COs.

I'd recommend scattering some reefs around the island.

I second the notion for some reefs. I personally would also remove the forests next to
the cities at the far right chokepoint, to allow it to flow easier. Other than that, good
map. 8/10 now, 9/10 if changes are made :)

UH OH! It's the attack of the Grit advantage again!

...Seriously, his rockets can reach across one horizontal road to the other, not to mention the
narrow passage of travel due to the woods. But that's an expensive option, and the other
player could easily tank rush provided the bases are not also in the range of rockets.

As soon as the map is open to editing I'll add some reefs and think about those forests.
Grit can't reach across roads unless he uses his CO power (6 spaces), but he could block
the other side's bases without being in range of their rockets (and blocking one of his
own bases), which is why I suggested banning him in the map discussions topic. However, I
hate saying that, so I'd like to work around it. Before publishing I tried a modification
where I put the bases on the far side of each peninsula and put mountains on the shoal and
plains closest to the middle so that no CO, not even Grit, could block the other side's
bases, but I decided that part of the game would make it more interesting and just tested
the game with a Grit ban. I might just make an alternate version for Grit-safe games
instead, as well as adding harbors on the east side to make naval units more useful.

Grit has +1 range D2D, so he can reach across always. The thing is...Grit is THE MOST
broken of the trio and he should always be banned on land/sea maps.

More reefs! More reefs! More reefs! More reefs!
