Maybe hosting an 1v1 tourney on only new map could be great.
We would test how great map are, and we would have a tourney without prepared BO...

just an idea though...

Hey keyser, yes it is an idea that has been talked about, i am however concerned about player count, many people seem to find placing a folder in another folder very difficult and thus decide not to even try,

but we will see, i suppose ;P

speed2, are the main bases "navy-proof" by what looks like some fairly elevated terrain? Also, the top right corner with only 3 mexes and one hydro hardly seems worth the investment verse spamming land across the terrain. Maybe make some more islands with mexes so navy is relevant? Say someone loses the ground war they can take hold of the islands to keep up?

It's quite literally an offcut of the 40km map Shards, so yes, they are protected :P

They are navy-proof. Top island isnt much, but it's also not big, but if you get it, it can give you an advantage. If you lose land you lose.
And yes its just cut off version of Shards so I cant change the map, just mexes.

It's been a while.
"Crashing Waves" has been worked on for a while and has been brought up to Working Version 2, its in the same download link in the OP.
- Wayy more decals
- Wayy more erosion
- Wayy more heightmap differences
- Wayy less early reclaim
Enjoy.
