pretty simple map. nothing special. couldn't figure out a name for it, so decided to give it up and threw it out, but it came right back to me, earning its name

I don't like the rocky next to GP's. with gp as grass makes it an easy target for arti's/mortars(if it survives that long) I do like that u can bypass gp but not to safely

i guess my response to the rocky next to the gp, is it was serving as more of retreating sector for rambos from the mine, not really mortars/ artis. yes, mortars can have a field day on the gp from the rocky, but if a gp still stands on day 12, and the losing team has enough peeps with the ambition to go mortar still, then they deserve to knock a few blocks off the gp. It's not hard to deter a mortarer.As far as artis go, when u get a rascal up in the rocky sector, let someone know, cause that'd be a bug. On this map, I'd think the gps would go farely quickly, as there's not much to do, except run the mm, and attack.

yeah arti cant go there, and if gp still stands day 12 then plz someone get mortar and blow it up! not bad, a bit bland to the eye colorwise but thats aesthetics.... not bad

make f4, e6 mountain.
f5 rocky.
get rid of that rocky wall that stops f5 noxing e5.
make the gps rocky.
add a mountain in f0 and a3.

with that done,
your map will be super sexy.

i was referring to the forest next to gp when i said artis would be happy

well here's koosalas super sexy renovation of my boomerang map

also original map has the 2 rocky walls on the mm. u mentioned getting rid of the f5-e5 rocky wall, but do u think it's better as it is now, without the d4-e5 rocky wall, cause i took em both out. not sure if u had noticed it doesn't make a huge difference really.

hmm gp sector looks wrong now, maybe if you make the moves e2 to e3 and b2 to c2 a grass move.
so in affect the gp sector will just have 3 rocky walls in side it rather than 4.

i see gps as a front line of defense, so to make best its position it would have as few ways to approach it as possible, in our case only 1 roadway.
hqs don't need this, they are a sprawling mass of buildings.
so with this move you could attack hq from 2 sectors. (or 3 if you want to completely shut them in)
rather than just being funneled up f3.

i say river between d4 and e5

Smallish map... enough space for ground vehs to move around... looks good to me:)

Suggested improvements:
If enough people agree, we can use this mod.
No objections from : Flyer, Mo2, Sephi, Frozn
However Sephi suggests a rocky wall between D5/D6 for running attackers)

NOTE:

THe open-ness of the map is mostly untouched.
Vehicles still have 2 non-road +1 road route to travel. and they can leave MM in any direction, including over the walls.

If enough people agree, we can use this mod.
Changes:

• moved TeamMine 1 further from base
  
  • To increase the distance (to what i personally see as the minimum. but its still short route on the way back from minerun).
  • To make a shorter route for demoers to enemy mine.
• The mntn walls help with the sneakiness.
• The waters are for any1 who thinks they'll be safe retreating to them (footy or a heli)..or they can be cornered there. This may also be a good rest stop when ur waiting for your move.
  Plus, its off to the side, meaning it cant affect the map's openness or have any negative impact on the round.
• The mm walls have been shifted.
  
  • The wall seemed pretty far to travel to get to, be any useful to any1. Now, for example, a mortarer in F2 wont have to retreat as far to strategically jump over a wall to dodge a chasing vehicle.
  • It also increases F5's usefulness, since it can now nox into MM (whereby, luring people further into the open)
