on any new maps can we have some grass airfields as forward air bases  and some railyards or depots.

even if they aren't capturable maybe link them to a normal "zone" base and they turn with the large field.   Like the old strats but you could spawn from them or attack them.

Maps for the MA have very specific requirements / limitations. Which is why the AvA and SEA maps can't be used in the MA. As for new maps most of the maps in the MA are player created. Always looking for more people to download the Terrain Editor and take a stab at things.

The original creator of the map has the source files and has to add/alter anything about the terrain. Then it needs to pass the Terrain Editor checks and then final approval by HTC.

Depending on the size and complexity of the map, and the workload at HTC, it could take more or less time. But, once the terrain passes the Terrain Editor checks, you can upload it for use in Custom Arenas without HTC involvement. Then everyone can see it and use it in custom arenas (or offline once it's downloaded locally).

I'd like to hire myself out to HTC. I'll work for $20 an hour and do nothing but create new maps for the MA. Call me !

I would really like some new maps, but more specifically I want DIFFERENT maps for the MA.

Each map in the MA we have kinda all follow the same guidelines, I wish for more variety.
