have you mastered the art of invisible platforms yet?

those stairs could use some, if you were detailed about it enough, each stair would have its own, combined with pathing blockers for those walls, you could make something very interesting here game play wise.
 
invisible platforms micro'ed can achieve those complex things, like scaffolds, and ''illusion ladders'' (very high angle platforms with a ''ladder'' doodad there) [creates the illusion of using a ladder when they actually just walk over top of the ladder via the platform]

Illusion ladders are great fun and can come in a few designs, one themed as bamboo could be useful to you, I once also found a demon ladder, which was neat, though not so practical looking, who wants to climb a spikey ladder? I have no idea but it sure was funny.

there's also an orc ladder and a human ladder out there somewhere, I never did find the fabled ''undead'' theme ladder.

Im not sure if I even have all these files any more, but there are also some log bridges and even a fallen statue bridge out there somewhere.

Infact you can use invisible platforms to make virtually anything into a ramp or bridge, they are very special, perhaps you should open them up and check them out, they were among the first ''models'' I started editing, due to their simplicity.
 
@kellym0 Sounds fun, it's definitely possible to achieve some interesting results with invisible platforms :p

This map actually has some wooden bridges in them, although it's done with alpha tiles and actual terrain. See;

thats a nice screen shot, that terrain looks like it took you awhile, to make as well.
