    By myself and Cowboy Pickle. It's basically an attempted recreation of the Great Wall of China as a conquest map. Some people said we pulled it off, other's didn't. Meh. We faced a ton of issues with the Ghost Merge canvas, objects kept screwing us over (I'm looking at you Psycho) and disappearing, we even started over once. We were going to enter this into the Seven Wonders Competition at Forgehub, but we never finished it in time because a certain someone screwed us over. COUGHARELL3MENTAHRGHCOUGH

    hell yeah its looking good. And if your having problems with the ghost merging canvas itself. Then i know what you mean iv been having lots of problems lately and idk y. Still this looks really impressive. Guess i should get my tail in gear i just started a conquest map yesterday in the skybox that utilizes Crystal caversn's death pits.

    This looks nice, but the fact that there's a line of site from one base to the other seems odd. Will there be a Line of site blocker? Oh, and just a suggestion, you should add more colors to that line of powerups. Like purple, green, and orange.

    Oooh! Nice idea, I'll work with whatever I have left. And yeah, if we have enough items, I'm thinking a dragon in the middle? That should be fun :)

    A dragon would be epic! I'm picturing a dragon coming down from the sky with the head as the Line of sight blocker. That would be awesome. Although very expensive... maybe you could just do a standard wall-shaped thing with a chinese symbol on it. I wonder if there's a chinese symbol for the word Conquest...

    This looks really good. Too bad it wasn't done in time for the 7 Wonders contest, I think it definitely would have been a contender.

    While this looks awesome from what I see, wouldn't it be wise to put something in the middle to break the line of sight?
    I can just foresee complaints about that.
    EDIT: nvm, already addressed that.
    With all the interesting Conquest maps coming out it makes me wanna get in to Conquest.

    That's easy!
    it's zhēng fú, or 佔領 or 征服 or 占领 or 战胜, pick one.

    ^that man, has style

    I suggest as a blocker for LOS just a building with block doubles/ anything like that. With the cool ass aesthetics on your wall

    I think the map looked good overall when i saw it in forge. My only question is... why is my name at the top!

    I havnt seen anything like this before. You have chopped up the wall into 3 pieces to get good aesthetics and it looks like better gameplay. You probably would have won if you submitted in time, but as you said someone screwed you over.

    Teehee, someone. VVV
    Oh you know perfectly why good sir.
    Yeah, CowboyPickle and I have a goal, we're going to see if we can use the OLN pieces to construct some sort of mountain in the center, with the Territories symbol floating on top.
