Well yet another map! So far this is just the layout of the map. What is unique is the map does not give an equal chance to both teams, usaully like in a real war! This is a kind of "seige" were the people outside have gotten tired of waiting and decided to take action! The red base will be in Quadrant I , kinda in the middle and on a box, like the kings court.. get it?.... The map will be a kind of story when the attackers or "raiders" try to capture the King (flag) and bring him outside. If they dont use teamwork the "Raider" commander (flag) will be captured and the "siege" will be over. Well i am goin to say i need ideas but i was thinking a kind of mideval setting with all the run down peasant houses in the outer-walls and the roalty in the inner-walls. Tell me waht you think because I need ideas to get thjs going.... I have the time to give you screen-shots of the map! YAY! the map file is also included..... Your ideas will be condisided and tried out and i will see if i like them! Your opinions are helpful, so please give them...

-Thanks-

And that never caught on either...

One big problem with your explanation of the map is that people don't want a story, they just want to blow people up. Other than that, I can't really say much right now, since the map really is only there to be looked at right now. (suggestion: spend less time on the multi-layered defense towers and more time on the actual map).

I agree with f687.

Along with that, I believe that if you want other buildings in the map, try not to make the castle take up so much room, or else the map will become really cramped, and will turn people away from it.

Ummm....F687 the reason i put the towers in first is because i dint know what else to put in it right then... thats why i put the map here so you guys can give me more ideas....Also the reason i made the "story" is because i thought you would like how i got the idea for my map... well just a thought anyways! and Easy Target it is not cramped.. it barely has anything in it..

.. but thanks for letting me remind myself that this map is for playing, not viewing... Thanks Though!

-Thanks and i will get a newer one up maybe tomorrow-

I meant, that if you want to add more buildings, make the castle smaller or else it will be cramped lol.
