    I really like the way the aesthetics blend with nature on this map. The courtyard is a very original idea and the covered walkways surrounding it look superb. One suggestion I have for you is to add some more pictures of the map to your post. This will get you many more downloads than if you just keep the number of screenshots you have right now. Your map is great, show it off!
    Quick question, did you build this on Montana?

    this pic might help a little, There's a lot of cover but there's also some places where you cant just run out into the open. Thanks for the feedback, and lemme know how you like it.

    Yes i did build it on Montana.

    Does anyone have any suggestions on Getting Downloads and Recommendations. Is there another forum i could throw this on? Also, what do you have to do to get on the games search engine's most downloaded/recommended, is that a daily thing or is it from the accumalative numbers since the games been out.

    benches

    they are...nice but i always use two braces for my benches, use the striped tops and put them at a 90* angle and it should make a smaller, more aesthetically pleasing bench.
    thats my only complaint :p

    I've tried those benches, but i like mine better because they supply more cover, the gameplay in that pavilion is intense.

    First I must say as a whole it is a solid build. The use of terrain is interesting, the building is clean and the pavilion is a nice touch. My biggest complaint is how detached the under section is from the rest of the map, there is very limited access to it so I can't see why I would want to even go down there. Some of the lower tunnels are a bit too tight as well although I do realize you were working around rocks. Also to be very nit-picky the benches are way too big, try railings.

    this looks great. If you would have posted this before, I feel that this would have been featured instead of that other map. this seems much better,espicially the first photo.

    Keep in mind that this is a BTB map. I have a small number of spawns on the lower level, and in objective games they are extremely valuable. As far as not wanting to be down there, I believe in every map you dont "want" to be at the bottom, but you can camp down there with a shotgun if you really want or use it to escape trouble. Theres 4 ways up and 5 ways down. I did the best i could with the bottom of blue base, with limited resources and giant rocks in my way lol. I've tested this map at least 20 times, and there were only 2 lopsided games (15+ kill difference in a 75 kill game.) Thx for the feedback.

    I will probably download it, but I'll be honest the first thing I will do is remove the Paul Bunyan benches and put something that looks more natural

    One word, beautiful. Very unique buildings and structures combined with natural and artificial aesthetics make this map look and feel like a standalone map. You hardly feel as though you are in Forge World on this map. Nice work!

    I'll download and give it a try, but it does look extremely open in some areas.

    ok My budget is really low, so with that said, this is what i came up with. It feels more open, so i dunno if i should sacrifice gameplay so i can get rid of the benches. (whats more important honestly, my map doesnt look good enough already?) so should i leave it the way it was or change it to this.

    Also note that if i delete the 6 benches in the pavilion ill have to delete the three in the middle (bottom pic). And i just dont know where to start with that one. I have $140 budget with the changes and im running into the item limit as well.

    Is this the under area accessible? Where does it travel to? I'm a little curious before I DL, also, the scale for the chairs looks a little off..

    Well having run through the map a bit I do absolutely love it. I can't wait to mess around in Customs with my buddies in the future. Oddly enough the benches in the middle didn't even catch my eye as I think they are actually slightly shorter and almost came off as little tables or something lol
