You could change how powerups look and such... make it perfect... I dunno.
That's what I have to do with my map. I've used 90% of the units that are supposed to go into the game. Now that I am out of the others that need to go in the map, I need to use Aresenal 3 to "copy" units. But meh.... I kind of agree with Clokr_.
Your maps are beatuiful. LoH was very good. But, I wasn't big on what was going on with the storyline. How many strings did you use in LoH?

Slow down, everyone. I'm not really back to work on this. In fact, I'm still half-way across the world, but I found the inspiration that I needed to get back to work, and I intend to do just that when I get back home on the 6th.
I want this project to be a success as much as anyone, but I'm afraid that what happened last time might happen again -- that I might lose my motivation. If you're going to post things, don't just say nice things. Ask questions! Give opinions! If you want to know more about the story, just say so.
Testers aren't necessary at this point. It's way too early to test anything. When I start testing, I will ask for people to PM me or something. If you want to help your case when the time comes, I suggest you show that you are really interested!
I'm not starting from scratch. What happened was I put down the map for a while, and I'm now going back to it. It seems I'm not the only one, either. I hear Mp)3 is back, and so are some other great mappers. It's a renaissance of sorts! Anyway, wish me luck on this!

Ok that was kinda dumb. 
If you want him to keep his motivation going you don't just close it. You say supportive stuff and suggestions and ideas to keep him in on it, and to get more of what everyone thinks.

umm, ok, anyways, back on topic, qPK you have made some amazing maps and im hoping this one will shoot them dead, and if it isn't, well, then i guess i would have to kill u... i hope that motivates u enough... lol 
and now for some questions:
1. Are there going to be any new ideas and such that will revolutionize map making or is it just the normal stuff?
2. Will there be music and will that music fit in well with the map, like in LoH?

Slayer, he means to close down the thread, not the map. Because it seems like the longer it takes the more impatient the people get....

Those impatient people should just leave if they are impatient and dont want to wate 2-3 months for a good map to come out...

Just checking on progress...
Anyways, I have a couple more questions.
First off, Are you going to have another long piece of music? If so, I would suggest something a little more mellow to go with the introduction you gave us. Too me, the storyline sounds like there is going to be a lot of events that will be sad. But, that's just me.
Secondly, do you have any intentions to continue making maps after this?
Thirdly, if I may ask, how did you come about the idea for the map? I think it is always fun to hear how people came up with their map's story/ideas/etc... Hell, the map I'm currently working on came from well... nevermind about that...
Well, those are all I have now. For, I haven't seen many updates or anything. So, I guess I'll question you some more when I see some more material...+
Good Luck.

ROFL!
You are a good mapper Mp)3.
And I would state an opinion, but it would only be something along the congratulations everyone else has.
I haven't played a recent version of this, and most of the problems I saw in the older version you say to have corrected. Good luck!
