Post by: BlueJ on December 04, 2003, 05:37:38 PM
Hey All . Im gonna try to make a new map caus some of the maps are gettn alittle old. I would like for anyone to please put their own request or Ideas. But please make them reasonable.
So gfar I have a few which I will list below. I will tkae all ideas into consideration, but please keep them clean, and no i wont do any special country favors so one team will win all the time.
Heres my list......
-High alt HQ
-Higher base to defend HQ
-Snow
-lots of Mtns
-close bases
-small map
-rivers, wide enough for cv to go up them
-useful pt boat points to cut off cv route
-High alt bases for buffs.
-gvs are able to spawn to other islands
-hidden valleys for goons

                  All Ideas are greatly apreciated

i dont think HTC will use it if you make a "small" map (size of mindanao/ndisles/baltic/sfma)

for GV spawns...

no 1 way spawns. ie: if GV's can got to a base let that base counter attack.

otherwise good luck and hurry lol AHII is online already and AH as we know it will be gone soon.

My advice would be wait until the AH2 editor comes out, think you might be wasting your time but could be wrong.... HT?

I apreciate your opinion DipStick, I think ill make a map anyway. Ill use this ma as a trial, and if people like it I'll make more for AH2.
Great idea on the 2 way spawn points JB, I'll make sure ill use them.

Problem here....

To make rivers wide enough for CV groups, you will need to make rivers that are 5 or 6 miles wide. I had the same thought...it turned out to not be practical. Good luck :).

If I can be of any assistance, drop me a note. BTW, those aren't rivers...they are seas :).
