V2.0 is online on US ladder for more tests. Look for Neo Station if you want to play online.
Briefing: Small maps encourage "a-clic" and army stack because it's hard to run-by and drop your opponent.
On that map, you can't stack your army at one point. You can't attack with all you army because you enemy will drop you in your main or run-by you at the same time. Also, you can't stay in your base to defend until you reach 200/200 of pop. because you enemy just have to macro and it's done for you!
It is not a pro-zerg map (full macro) because expands are far from other ones (not easy to spread creep between each base) and expands are also hard to defend because they are surrounded by many high grounds.
----- The only way to win is to fight everywhere with small army groups. GTai does it very well. Games last ~40-50 minutes. -----
Features: - Perfectly symmetrical map in cross position - 1v1, 2v2, FFA - 1 rich vespene geyser per expand - Light decoration. Clean and fresh look! - Huge map 200/200 with large fighting area - Mineral: 26*(1500*8)= 312 000 - Gaz: 24*2500= 60 000
Map released!
