More new maps

from Sins Forums
I have created two more maps, (and updated old ones)

all at this link

WWW Link

I would like feedback, however I would much rather you just play the maps for fun.  ;) 

To cut down on Confustion, pls don't change the map names (like Eet did once) Leave the names the way they are, unless you are adding a .GALAXY If by some chance, the name of the map changes aways from the name I intedend for it. Change it back, for no other reason then to save on confusion.

(What insipred me to say that is, Eet downloaded "Adam's Way, and renamed it Adam's, mabe accidently, I do not know. It could also be the name was messed up to begein with)


and here is a discritpion of all of my maps so far, I am too lazy to post pictures. But if you think having pictures will inspire you to play some of my beutiful maps. Pls tell me and I will.

Note: I have two "types" of maps, Natural looking, and blocky.
Natural looking, and more visualy orriented, and tend to be all around better.

Blocky are more stratigicly orriented, but not a whole lot more (and they look blocky)




EvilTesla Home system.
A blocky map
Starts out with two 1v1's. Batteling for controll of Evil Prime, and Tesla Prime. Which are two planets that are not choke points, but CONTROLL neutral choke points.

Clot
A blocky map
Simalar to Evil Tesla Home System, exept the two planets ARE choke points, (and I didn't name them)

Starburst
A blocky map
Start out surround by uninhabited planets (that are only connected to you) and you are directly connected to the sun. Bound to have some quick, but epic battles here.

Adam's Ways
A natural map
Has reiceved the most "I want to play it NOW!!!" Giant spiral Arms give long build up times, with a small ring to fight in. The pirates abound in this map.

Insanity
A natural map
My latest map. Supposed to be very well connected, but still give large build-up times. As such, it is rather an insane-looking map. I can't even describe it, some wierd mix between the Letter G and the Milky way.

Anarchy
A natural map
My first map. the only 1v1 (everything else is Four way). Supposed to look like a giant Iris (My original name for it) Evertything is at most two jumps away. Including the enimy Homeworld.

eet didn't rename the map, when we dled it, the name was "Adam's". Maybe the download service didn't like the space, so it just cut everything after it off. That would explain the lack of the .GALAXY extension.

o, maby.

In that case, when you DL the map, make sure you give it the right name!!!! lol

Also, thier are olderversions of the same maps, I am getting those deleted, but untill they are, make sure you are getting the newist version (date to the right of the name)

Also, Insanity got screwed up somehow, I am getting that deleted as well, but it is not the map I originly made...

this happens once and awihile, I'll make a map with the map editor, and it will mess it all up.

Adam's way is indeed misnamed, for the filesystem that is. You should remove the apostrophe in future versions to avoid the clipped filename.

Having started a game in the Starburst map, I can freely say I like it. You could improve upon a few things overall, but so far the map is fun. So far I've found no artifacts or bonuses on a single world, and I think the asteroid "connector" to the star probably should be a dead one. ;) Other than that, maybe a desert or ice world to replace the second lava world would make things a little more varied.

Don't forget to enter the number of players, recommended team settings, and description for the maps though. ;)

Starburst was my second map I made
(alot of planets are random)

Getting better at discreptions and such (all new onse have them)
Also getting better at stratigic postioning, use of nuetral planets ect.

Thanks for the Feed back, that is what I want.


Insanity works now, I think some ppl are going to love it, and some hate it.
For its size and well....its insantiy.
It actully has a patern, esecntully a small spiral, with lots of connections.
