Could use a couple mountains in the area by the lab and HQ, but overall this looks good.

i fear the map is too narrow and the center area may useless during the play

This map is made for FOW.

Player 2's advantage is too big. Can capture base and send infantry towards com-tower or city on turn 2 whereas Player 1 has
to choose between the base and sending an infantry south on turn 2.

Fun map, I actually think the players are pretty balanced - neither player needs the com-tower for a long time. The com-towers
are well placed - easy to capture and defend for the nearest player but also right on the edge of the most contested areas. I do
agree that the center doesn't really come into play at all though, especially due to the FoW.

production facilities being bundled together in opposite corners from eachother = no early gameplay variety

a wierd map, i must say. It folows the design principles of Verdun: Tucked in production facilities in the corner, and the rest
diagonal.

But it is more complex that that. The uninteresting center pushes you to the flanks. The placements of the the bases makes
you really think what base should be building what units, for what direction. And that is because there is no center play where
you play with some light guessing and poking

I don't know if that is very nice for Fog? You really have absolutely NO clue what the enemy is up to. Not an thing.
Completely blank. All that while you have to decide how much you commit to an flank.

I think it would be better without Fog.

2nd player has 9k on day 4 while 1st player has 8k on day 4. The 9k mark is a huge deal on day 4. Yes all bases are
bundled up together for no different variety. 2nd player 2 farthest bases are almost identical. It wouldn’t be a bad idea change
the map or how the game starts. I think it is 2/10.
