This is a two player twilight map. If you have any comments or suggestions for me to improve it, they'd be greatly appreciated. If you want to take it and remake it into something really awesome, by all means do.

The "X" after the title means that if played in UMS, the entire map is revealed then un-revealed in order to show both players the map layout (making memorization of the map unnecessary). The mains, of course, are not revealed.

The minimized image of the map looks cool, which is always a plus. However, the mains feel somewhat awkwardly shaped... I don't have any concrete suggestions, though.

One obvious thing you could fix is the gas issue. Move the main minerals to the left/right (so they are facing the opponent's main), and place the gas in a 12 o'clock position.

Thanks, I hadn't read the "gas issue" article. From what I can tell, it doesn't seem that mappers move the geysers to the optimal position on expansions too. I'll just re-do the mains for now.

Do you guys think the map is too open? Should the central high-ground area not have such large ramps facing upwards? Is the name too unoriginal and dull? I bet there's a ton of things I can change to make the map better. Any suggestions at all?
