Mains still seem a bit too small,
And the map in general is too tight.
Also, the expos in the middle have awkwardly placed minerals again. Please just stop putting minerals in the middle of the field..
Also, what are the junks surrounding the map? Makes the map look strangely interesting.
I think you could've used the space to put some Island Expos.
Concept wize, it isn't so great, as the map is too tight overall... huge disadavantage for melee units D:
I liked Effluvia better.. .. that map can also use some island expos

The mains are huge. This is an 'epic' size map.
It has a greater average openness than any Blizz made SC2 map. So no, it's not too tight.
I don't care if you think they're awkwardly placed. I put them that way for a reason - So those expos are hard to defend from drops on the high ground islands.
They're building doodads. It's a city tilesets.
What the fuck is it with you an island expos? They're massively imba for Terran.

None.
Well, the building doodads can be placed in a better order.
I can't tell if it's epic size, cause your images are always so small.
They aren't imbalanced for terran if you put some destructible objects there. No need to start raging O.o
It'd give the map more strategy.
meh @ your reason for placing the minerals that way.

Yes they are, but regardless, that's not an island expo anymore.
None.
Huh? I don't understand your argument here...
If you put destructible Objects there, the only Advantage terran has is the ability to float a CC, and start chipping at it with 5 SCV's.
For real games, it'd be wise to not waste time like that until you have air units, vikings, or dropships to destroy the rocks and make room for the CC.
This puts Terran at about the same time as the other races. ... Unless i'm forgetting something.
Also, how is it not an island expo? Island expos can't be reached by ground, that's the criteria.. Are there other criteria that i'm not aware of??? It seems quite straight forward..

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically[04:26 am]
Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?[04:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings[06:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.[03:47 pm]
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.[03:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new
