here's my second map!!

Not enough money for a map of that size. After the nat, there is no nearby expo for a while. Also try to give the paths more purpose instead of them just being there.

it might be just me but i think it looks like it would be really easy to contain at that tiny choke after the nat and main

and i agree that a third is rather far away

@Capn Awesom: the mains are 2000 min
@manbearpig: u need to get air to reach to the 11-ish and 5-ish base

I never said anything about them being islands just that any real third base seems rather far and about that tiny choke after main and nat being easy to set up a contain with

*modifying the map now*

Yeah, and don't make paths like this. That long. You should look some promaps how they are there.

3rd gas too far.. distance too long.. space not used well.... a little bit better than the last one :)

2000 min in main?
-It doesn't help to be 2 base for a long time, zerg has disadvantage without 3rd gas
-The distance between expos is pretty ridiculous, you might as well stay 2 base, but then that's... uh... not good... or whatever...XD
-Mid too big = Terran get super flanked = Terran get pwnt = Terran "gg"

Most of this should be self evident.
Take all of this as constructive criticism, and keep working at it!

I just need fat ramps for ash then I am good

Guys, i need more comments or changes cuz I will only master ash map =P, or try others later

lol, Ash isn't the best terrain to master, it's very bland and typically boring. But look at some pro maps to help you. They will provide a basic format to follow.

i think it would be possible to erase that little line of cliff below / above the main and mabey add a min only there for a closer third or somewhere else around that area

another version coming up!! I hope I finish it in time for MOTY 2008
