    So I will soon be starting to forge my first map, after planning it for some time. But I have questions regarding the vehicles and weapons on the map. On the map, I plan to have:
    -1 Phaeton
    -1 Wasp
    -1 AA Wraith
    -2 Warthogs
    -4 Mongooses
    -1 Rocket Hog
    -1 Rocket Launcher
    -1 Splaser
    -1 Sniper
    (Note: this is only the list for power weapons and for vehicles)

    Would this set of weapons and vehicles be acceptable in a BTB Forge map? Is there anything I could change in the list?

    I think its fairly difficult to predetermine this. It all depends on what map you have and what the layout is. How big is the map? How open is the map? Has the infantry enough stuff to eliminate vehicles? Do the vehicles have sufficient room to manoeuvre and such. How much is indoors? Etc.

    It's your map man, you can put anything you want on it but you should play the map lots of times before you set on anything. The lobbies here can give you some feedback and help you shape the experience.

    Good luck.

    first of all. MAGA. Second of all. All you can do is try it. Just think about what makes each of these things individually fun and how they interact with each other. Don't be afraid to fail. Failure helps you get better. The more used you get to it the less depress you'll get about it when it happens and you won't get hung up on it.

    My tips to you, use grenade launcher, splinters, and plasma pistol. Those weapons would be very helpful for balancing phaeton because they can emp it. Something interesting you could do is the detachable gauss turret to also help infantry vs vehicles. Those are some examples that show how much you could do to balance that weapon/vehicle set. As others previously said, yes its totally possible. Help is always here if you need it.
