what do you have against gv's..
having a map where GV's are useless is not right to the gv user's. players who are primarily gv'ers have a right to be able to play on any map. if I'm reading your message wrong I'm sorry, but it sounds like you don't want any gv action on this possibly new map.

Overall, I believe the current gameplay mechanics over-promote GV usage in a game built around air combat.

But, that specific comment was directed in preventing taking the bases at fighter/tank town. And when a vast majority of base takes are via GV, positioning the towns and fields as to inhibit a GV attack is sound reasoning. Unless Chuikov can make those bases truly uncapturable like the HQ bases, then other measures must be made to prevent capture.

If your making a MA map you should send a picture of the map with the base lay out on it BEFORE you get in too deep. If there is something in your map that would make it a "no go" for the main arena, its better to get it sorted before you build the whole thing.

Keep at it!   :aok

Sound advice.

i was trying to recreate one of the mesa's in monument valley in the last pic, i think it may have to go. In the center of the tank furball area is something akin to Gettysburg, Cemetery hill, cemetery ridge, devils den, big and little roundtops. I think i may have to move them around a bit and smooth them out

I love the cliffs in the first pic. Post the pic in the Terrains Forum and tell the event terrain guys how you did it. We need the Cliffs of Dover added to the BoB terrain before August.

That was pretty easy to do, added a vertical 300ft rise from the ocean, evened it out, and used coral as the terrain.
