If the AI can't figure out shipyards maybe you could have a shallow-water path connecting all the islands and both landmasses?
Only 1 goldmine per side?

This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
Inspired by a zone of the same name in Everquest.
I tried a more gimmicky melee map focused around ships but I'm not sure how fun it actually turned out to be.
AI obviously could not figure out what to do with the shipyard so don't try playing with the computer.

I figured it would be cooler to just have deep water everywhere like an actual ocean so the only way to cross is by boat
And I thought 1 gold mine would be enough until you could afford to travel to the one in the center, but I might just change my mind and put another guarded by an orange camp in each landmass

Having two mines is less about total gold and more how much gold you're getting per second, especially at higher upkeep.

Well, to be honest this is a not a map most melee players will enjoy playing against other humans.... The downsides are:
-No player interaction possible early on, even in lategame the distances are very long.
-No expansion possibilities.
-Very basic terrain, not polished. The playable terrain extends until the edges of the map.
-Trees far away from main buildings.
-Air units have such a big advantage, I don't see why anyone would bother making ground units after reaching tier 2.
I understand you are new to making melee maps, which I'm happy to see. Unfortunately it isn't as easy as it may appear at first to make a good melee map.
This map would basically need to be remade completely to be anywhere near even the worst blizzard maps. Therefore map set to substandard. Sorry. Try to look at the standard blizzard maps see what they are doing to improve as a mapper.
