(4) Maelstrom

• This is a map intended for 1v1, 2v2, or FFA play that I whipped up in an afternoon when I was bored. It turned out pretty good! Once I add some decoration for aesthetics, it should be great. :) Map image below:
  

  This map is intended for a wide variety of play, including 1v1, 2v2 and FFA. The map is designed to be a macro map, allowing players to play defensively, tech, and build large armies. This map is intended more for fun matches with your friends than for serious competitive play. That being said, I would still appreciate any comments on match-up balance.

  Each spawn location has close access to two very safe expansions. These expansion have a limited amount of minerals (about 40%), meaning that they will mine out pretty quickly (gas quantities are normal). The short supply of minerals at the expansions is offset by the large amount of minerals in the central area. Control of the center is key not only for control of these resources, but also for control over the main attack paths.
