A better way of taking the screenshot is to show the entire terrain. Judging from the screenshots, the terrain is poorly made due to the fact everything is flat which is really plain. The placement of goldmines of having three goldmines at your starting positions IMO just discourages people to explore and find new goldmines to build bases and really just uses up a lot of the space in the base. Please add a category and a map type.

Its a normal melee map
It says "Altered Melee" (type).

I'd better check this out :/

Okay, it's a normal melee map (change the type, please).
The drops aren't random enough (you must find a balance between static and too random).
The terrain is very geometrically built and the raise/lower-tool hasn't been used.
The only purpose of the cliffs is to divide the lands, but this has been done with a very unnatural feeling.

Aside from aesthetics, the map is very balanced and great for 2v2v2v2, with a lot of resources and additional mines to defend.
A downside is that there is no green camp, the drop (as said before) are not random and the terrain could greatly be improved.

It would be apriciated to use better quality pictures in your description. (it really kinda hurts my eyes) You can use other picture formats aside JPG. Altho most of my pictures are JPG, but for some reason they look better. No offence i like the map and all but the pictures just keeps getting into my eyes, Also removing or recoloring the white area could be great! For example you could use the color used in THW as background.

5/5

If olympus is a muslim bah is a curseword.
I'm quite sure you confuse 'muslim' with [country], as not all muslims speak the same language.
"bah" may mean something for an Arab, who speaks Arabic, but not for an American muslim who cannot speak Arabic.
(I don't know which language you mean :S)

And I think you need to look at the bigger picture here:
The Olympus King said:
Drakexx said:
Is there some new races or warriors?

no :)
bah!
He merely expressed his feelings towards the fact that there are no new races.
I don't think any harm was intended... :/


Edit:
English -> Arabic:

Bah \Bah\, interj.
An exclamation expressive of extreme contempt.

You're right, but in common English it just means you're not happy with something (and otherwise he could be punished for not speaking in English and for swearing :D).
But the Arabic meaning just doesn't fit in this case :/

2 things why map shouldn't be approved!

- No creeps on starting locations!
- 3 gold mines on starting location is epic fail (just try to play with night elves)

As soon as you fix this I will approve map!
