Melee Map Terrain

[Grave_Digger_]

So I've started making a melee map My idea was to mix different tiles and doodad types, here's red starting location, what you think? Suggestions?

Story:xxd:

A long time ago king Jern ruled the ancient kingdom of Deloran. He ruled his lands with an iron fist.High taxes and human sacrifices to the gods made the people of Deloran angry. A revolution started, when one of Jern's castle gaurd told him that the people had started attacking city gaurds, Jern decided to use his only defence after the gaurds. The anorw! He realesed the monster from his cage. Now, 6500 years after anorw got realesed the city lies in ruins. Orcs, Humans, Night Elves and undead have now discovered Deloran. Who knows what hiddeous creatures might be loose in the ruins?!

I feel pity for the player in the center square >.>

The playability has potential but right now is quite bad, this is because whoever starts out in the middle gets screwed first. Maybe make the map a 2v2 map and the goldmine a neutral mine that the two players can fight over? That would be really cool.

 

[Slaydon]

or place it like this

- - -- ---- - - - 3

player 1 - - -- - - - - - - -- - - 2

Or if you're adding more players you could do

1....2....3
4....5....6
7....8....9

 

[Slaydon]

Syltman, that would make nr 5 feel terrible :O

Maybe a tournament melee map, the 3 rows battle to the end, then they will observe till the others are done, then you start a new base or move it to another area with same players, then they continue till 1v1

+ something annoys me, evry1 posts in this thread, but just a single post in my terrain =((

Maybe you could do this.

1...N...2

Or

S...1...S
2...N...3
S...4...S

(S= goblin shop, tavern, etc)
(N= neutral gold mine)

Right now its like this;

1.....G.....2
C.....C.....C
...............
C.....C.....C
3.....G.....4

Numbers = players
C = Creeps
G = Goldmine

Unplayable with those tiny bridges.

What why? A small bridge is good for the defender... If they dont attack with air Comments on the terrain?

Btw look first post, updates
