Missile Arena
Map Review and Description
Missile Arena is a 3v3 game where people get a continuous stream of free cash and have to spend it wisely on their choice of many missiles/mines/bombs/shields ... the map has a many choices. It's very simple though, all you have to do is defeat all your opponents. As you buy a unit it will give you a description of their range, uses, power, etc. You can then load it into your dropship and fly into the field which is the only area you can drop your items for them to have any effect. In the dead center is a healzone, which encourages people to defend and attack towards, most of the fighting will go on in or around it but it's not unusual that people take other paths.
This is the first game I ever saw and played that had virtual HP, a dropship firing system, and an expansive and original weapon selection. (I saw this map and worms about the same time a couple years ago)
Overall it's a pretty fun team vs team game. The only bad thing I think is the slow unload of units while you're moving, other than that it plays fast.

Yea, he's recomending it. If he reviewed and rated his own map, he'd be a loser!

Fixed an overlooked sentence which really didn't make sense when I read through it.

I am going to have to consider the map mediocre at best. It's a very neat map, but I can't imagine playing it more than twice ever.

Play it a couple more times, it takes a couple games to start appreciating it. I hated it at first.
