Ill submit some details on my doings in here. Map project nr 6:

Wargame is only a name for this map untill i find something original.

Im going to be a bit short:
Idea is, build an army, capture factories, let noone else have an army or factories.
How it works:
You get a small company of infantry, when you move close to a factory its mana will go down if it is not defended.
Factories give you food, food is used for building, when you build a unit you may notice nothing appears. You noticed right, after 20 seconds you will be able to deploy the units at any one of your factories. With a maximum of 200 units per player on the field.

(these screenshots are already a few versions back)
The models are mostly from wc3sear.ch, some skins are editted to my likeings the rest is all made by me.

This map now includes the following and more:
4 different types of towers
9 different types of units (will be hell more) including fighter planes, tanks and infantry
4 additional buildable stuff
and loads more, and even more in progress.

I dont have a planned release date ill just release it as soon as it is good enough.
And about the terrain, im busy on it, but i try to maintain many open places since the main thing my testers like the map are the big open field battles, and loads of chaos and backstabbing players that are busy backstabbing.
But i added some terrain and there will be some doodads to make it look better, but remember the dessert isnt very packed with stuff.

I love the idea and you said those skins were avalible from wc3sear.ch? I'll take a look at them. I believe that has quite some potential and sounds like fun! Best of luck :)

Although desert terrain doesn't have many doodads, it does have some. Use small boulders, cat tails and other plants like that spread sparsely over the map, also include critters like lizards and vultures placed in likely places. If you need help with desert terrain then send me a PM, it's one of the two terrain types I'm good at.

Looks good, but the skins seem a little low quality, although I understand it is bnet map so filesize restrictions etc. I suggest you make a few locations where more interesting battles could happen, such as a canyon where if you spotted and enemy going through you could easily fly some bombers over them or setup artillery from the edges of the canyon's cliffs and fire down into it.
