This map was designed to be one of the most fun and for years (until arena split) it was. But back then the Tank Town area was full of action, and no one had to ask "any GV fight anywhere?"
(No, the eternal spawncamp at V135 doesn't really qualify as a "fight" most of the time ;) )

It's a tragedy.

well I couldn't care less about gv fights. The mountains are the center are too thick and the flights too long for any sizable furball to develop. Once the middle defense lines are pierced its ok, but the initial setup doesn't encourage air combat at all.
