Ok so, experimental map time.

Now I know the first thing that probably hits is the unbuildable ground and the tightness that you would think promises T winrar. I however, disagree. Due to the 815 ramps, T needs a dropship to get tanks out of his main OR he has to sacrifice an expo to a factor+machine shop, and thats only one factory, and in most areas, the tanks are trapped and contained to that area.

My idea for this map was to create a map where you had the choice of using light units for a ground assault, or treating it like an air map, hence it being labeled Hybrid.

At the moment, I think its a bit too experimental for me to make any more balance comments/changes, so I turn it over to you BWMN.

All min blocks are 16.

Watcha think guys?

Interesting to say the least, however, since I am getting a bit rusty on picking up details about balance, I wont even try to, instead, I would like to suggest you make a few random blocks of dirt within the rockiness (small enough to be unbuildable), to make it appeal more to the eye, as I was turned off by the massive amounts rocky ground.



None.

It needs to be rocky so T cant manufacture tanks in select areas without sacrificing an expo or just dropping them in by air. Some 2x2 squares are going to be added for turrets but thats it.

I really don't feel like doing that for the whole map just for aesthetics.

Remove a lot of rocky land so it allows buildspace. The map is too tight for P to move around in anyway. It needs to open up strategies like proxygates. Also, alot of those expos will leave zerg with no space at all- making it completely defenseless. It wouldn't be wierd if Terran didnt barge in with marines only.



None.

Right Dazed. I'm adding in some turret/creep space.
