Edit: Noticed i spelled the name wrong tongue.gif doesnt matter though since it doesnt mean anything, but "Sattarchasm" it is supposed to be. sorry

An easy map. perhaps that is my style atm. However i got a bit inspired by Tbmmitu by me and hefty by adding these bridged gasexpansions. if a player attacks there he can be backstabbed, alternatively deadlocked in the expo when other player counters his army from behind.
All those expos can be hit from a mainbase to make the terran living just a little bit easier. The decoration is a mixed tribute to travin and summersky.
My concern so far is that it might be too much stuff in the center, but its always more room in-game than in staredit, so i hope i can play on it soon to find out.

Edit: oh, and the name has no translation to swedish whatsoever, i took it from a random rockband generator cool1.gif

edit: there, updated it a little bit.
even more positionally balanced, and travin suggested to move minerals from neutral gasexps a bit out so lurkers cant hit them in pvt from the main above.

Maybe a bit too many doodads in the middle (ruin area)? The rest looks nice smile.gif

kinda big space to leave it completely empty vs p or z

I really like the central doodad area. Gives it atmosphere.

[sub]The mains and naturals look alot like LT. But the rest of the map is very original. I love how you can make all the terrian flow so perfectly, thats something im still working on.[/sub]

well ive come to realize some problems balancewise which i might need to think abit about.. seems like the map is very black and white in terms of gameplay, because terran can harrass almost every expo good, but the center stops them from moving anywhere. so it becomes a lockdown in the game when terran refuses to move out since he dies, but z or p doesnt ge any money cause of t siege tongue.gif

Ooh, at least its sexy.

I like the middle, alot. I know it does lock down terran, I think they'll be forced to go drops pretty fast vs P and micro like hell since they won't get through the mid, although, if you placed tanks correctly, goons would have a hard time gettin the tanks.
