Forgotten Sanctuary

[Ardenaso]

Before playing it, I personally think that since it's in HD, it should have a higher standard in decorations and terraining. Also, those buildings could be replaced with more appropriate buildings design-wise with a more organized manner of placement

The core concept is nice.
However, some tweaking would be fine:

1. Points are captured by killing the bigger neutral hostile unit, not all or most of the defenders.
2. Terrain is quite flat and repetitive. Trees don't quite serve a path blockers but are more for the visual aspect. Essentially, the map is pretty much a flat chess board with no real moving restrictions.
3. Not sure what some neutral passive buildings do: Siege Workshop, Soul Pit, Turtle Totem.
4. Could use more creature variety.
5. Isles Tribes icon is green on the multiboard on Classic graphics.
6. Not quite sure how the troop ordering functions. Some of the allied troops just remained near the Grail zone patrolling around.

Approved.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION

• A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
• A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
• Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.
