    Wow...

    Have you ever tried to forge on powerhouse? It's extremely hard!

    I personally think this map looks great and to see that it's created on powerhouse just amazed me. I dl'd after I saw the first pic.

    ya that wasnt cool man not cool. dont gotta be harsh like that cmon.

    as for the map, I like any sort of cutoff map for 1v1s. I think there should be a single thread with all the root maps repurposed for 1v1 games. If i make a thread like that, I add this map

    Updated - lots of changes. Added teleporters and a lift. Added hologram and sniper rifle. Found spawning problem and resolved it.

    wow! Those teleporters look awesome! Maybe add an overview, just to see where everything is.

    I didn't want to sound harsh. What I was trying to say is that it isn't much to look at. If it was on forge it would a different story.

    Actually I think it would look a lot better on Powerhouse as it is, too many grey items mess up the map because most people are tired of looking at Forge World defaults so the map is just fine. This thread though needs more pictures of the map.

    I got a game on this cause I'm a fan of your silly maps, but I didn't really like this one. I felt like I was in Scooby Doo when using the teleporter against my friend, we looked at in forge and tried opening it up. Sadly, there wasn't enough to forge with, we where going to make a small outer circle from where the crates are blocking the small room, around rocket pi;pe spawn. It was interesting though..

    Hey - thanks for trying it. I know it's not spectacular, but I find it interesting. The teleporters are silly, but it's because apparently running in circles has become popular, and I figured fight fire with fire, right? lol

    I've been trying to open up more paths, but even if I can scratch up enough objects it just sucks the flow from the rest of the map. I think the direction to go is probably making the top edge of the ring playable, but it's going to take a ton of objects to keep it closed off. BTW man cannons make decent walls if you use the bottoms. And the dumpsters are huge. So it's feasible. Just gotta be cheap with the objects. I wish I had more time to work on this before the contest deadline, but between deadlines at work and my responsibilities as a parent and partner, I couldn't. I figured if the staff find it interesting maybe they'll want to look at a revision of it. *shrug* I only posted it here because it didn't feel right to post a map preview of map I was submitting.
