Congratulations on the great presentation of the map. Eccho had voted this for approval, I checked it fast and it seems fine. For now the status is Approved. I will try to fully review and rate when I will have more time.

You can find Eccho's review on post #12 of this topic.

If you want, I can upload the icons of my map (advance war home made icons).

A very nicely done map. I liked the reactivity of the terrain.
5/5

i have found a bug :
against a cpu (i dont know if he's playing)
i play red player
first i make a soldier
i cap half of the point
then i buy a bazooka
then the first vehicle (4000)
and last a tank (7000)
when i click on tank => i've got a fatal ERROR.

u couldnt transfer AW into wc3 better than u did now
great map!
im just missing some ppl like drake at green earth
and uhm...
i tried the map 5 times and it doesnt seem to be "random generated" cause its always the same terrain

well anyway
if u add all those other COs ill give u a 5/5
but atm its "only" a 4/5

@ FrozenFenrir :
I badly expressed myself. It's IN the aeras which are "random generated".
And I did not envisage the boats yet, it's the reason why I did not put Drake yet.

Thanks for your comments

 

[FrozenFenrir]

well i ment why drake isnt shown at the icon but okay
hope to see more improvements in the future
this map has very big potential ;D

Wow...
Every map that is based on other game and made to good quality like this deserves 5/5 and + rep from me.
Keep making it to the end with all features of original game.

Awesome map. Just crashed when I tried to by a Med. Tank, nice map other wise though

 

[Tau Empire]

It's a good map since it does follow the advance wars like the GBA/DS.

Goods:
It's Advance Wars for WC3 so no need to describe the good stuff.

Bads:
Major crash right before capturing the HQ of the enemy
No Air (Airport)
No Navy (Port)
Not alot of CO's (I like Hawk and Eagle lol)

I have never Played Advanced Wars before, only seen footage of it, and if this is a mod based on that game, you truly did an amazing job.

The icons and systems used here seems really good. The ideal of having strategic points, strategic landscapes is also fun and needs one to be more tactical. The round system also reminds me a little of Heroes of Might and Magic. And the map seems very balanced, both in layout and with the units. There is only one thing I didnt like, and that is the terrain. Even though the original game may have been that flat its way too flat to fit as a Warcraft 3 map. It would also look better since mountains in general are much higher than the landscapes around them

Overall, I did enjoy playing it, even though it was only singleplayer. It would be cool if you improved it by adding more players, making it much funnier multiplayer (like 3vs3 or so, but yes, I saw you posted that in the description). Keep up the good work. This review will also say the same about the Narrow Fight map. Shape up the terrain alittle. The map would only feel good about that.

I dont know whether it should have a 3/5 or 4/5, its somewhere in between. Ill give it 3/5 for now on. Pm me if you would like another review after updating or submitting a new one.

Filename too long, the game won't even appear on the map list unless you change it.

Otherwise, great map. I am very much looking forward to a 2v2 or 3v3 version.

Overall I think the movement speed should be decreased to make it feel a bit more strategic and more like a turn based game.

 

[Mitchomitch]

This is awesome! I'm a fan of AW and have to admit that this is great! Keep up the good work!

 

[Bloodseeker3]

Lol nice advance wars and warcraft xD! Nice work! Once i tried this too but i failed...

 

[ironinferno]

um it doesnt show up on battle.net or single is this fake?

 

[Tau Empire]

O no it works it's just that the author made the filename more than 28 characters long, which makes the map invisible to see in WC3, so just rename the map file to something else.

 

[Swytch]

woops i don't know that. I change the file name for this map and Narrow Fight.

 

[LemonsDaBest]

Lol i soooo remember this game, i have got to try it

 

[andreasaspenberg]

a few details are wrong. rivers dont give any negative bonus, neither do roads or beaches but in both of these maps they give negative bonuses. i checked out the game this map is based on. i have those that were released on the gameboy advance as well as those released on the ds. the maps doesnt work correctly with ai. the computer doesnt do anything. the maps could use more turn based things.(like with capturing buildings.)

 

[clockwork2]

i've read much about this...does it support ai?
