Sure I'll add you.
Hey guys I got the tester versions ready. There'll be two of them: One as mechs-only, and one with just the AoS systems (no mechs). I'll PM you all the details soon. If you have any preferences for which you want to play first, let me know now.

Oh yeah, and here's my craptastic current map layout, if anyone is interested. This will most definitely change when I start adding in the events and missions.

Ewww... huge waste of space! IMO, the layout won't be very effective for an AoS styled game. From what I can tell, there are only 4 general areas of combat, 2 of which won't matter as much because of their small size. Judging by your post though, you probably already took notice of this.

Yeah, I know it sucks. What's crossing my mind now is to remake it into a tiered design. There won't be any huge blocking areas of space, but rather rows of terrain with paths through them and various points along the rows to give opportunities for things like high ground and choke points. Bases will of course have some terrain protection, like being only accessible through a small path straight on or from the far sides. Not sure on that yet too, though.

Hmm... I guess I'll just have to see the map until I'm able to voice anymore opinions.

Seeing how your tester list is full, If you need a back up tester, just ask me. I'm avaliable any time I'm on. By the way, interesting concept for terrain. I like the upper right corner

Installation? Not unless there's a way to build on it without using black tiles or something (can't remember the trick for that). Bit late to make that kind of change now, though.
Space is fine. That terrain probably isn't, though.

Tester's versions have just been handed out. Sorry for the wait. Now git to werk!

Note to everyone: Marandule is my current lead tester, so he'll be helping with arrangements. This frees me up to do the actual map work, so try to collaborate with him as much as you can with regards to testing instead of me.

You want to be on the other team? I already have you down on Alpha. I'll switch you to Omega if you like, though.
You'll need to get a copy of the Omega version, though. Ask Marandule1 or one of the Omega guys for the link by PM, and let me know when you got it (I'll update the front post then).

There there. We'll be doing joint testing after the inital balancing stuff is out of the way. The teams will remain though, as I have a purpose in mind for them later during that stage.
