For years the romans controlled most of the waterflow through the barren countryside. Now the Spillway represents a vital opportunity to either help the countryside flourish or to choke off the precious water supply. Either way... fun map.

my team -
Mimring,
DW9K
Ninjas

(I am evil... :twisted: )

opponent -
Nakita Agents,
Ashra
Vikings
Raelin
Dendrick

(I will assume he was the good guys)

The overhead shot:

A side shot showing how I used the door to be the spillway. Also my nifty Petco pillars. I highly suggest making the 99 cent investment.

While a ninja holds off several Asha warriors on the ground, a lone Nakita backed by Raelin faces off against a ferocious Mimring atop the Spillway. Meanwhile DW9K has made his way beneath the aqueduct and takes aim at a petty viking.

I won this game. Evil prevails! I decided not to shut off the water supply but instead to poison it thoroughly in effort to advance from Evil to Diabolical!!

Anyways, it was just a very small map made quickly to test how a long straight wall would work in battle. Each team had a ladder up. Most of the battle happened on the ground still but the greatest battles were on top of the Spillway. When will I learn to quit picking self-defeating armies...? I mean why do I draft DW9K when I know he can't climb ladders... I mean besides his awesome defense and explosion cannon... Well actually those are pretty good reasons to draft him... nevermind...

Nice idea of using the castle to make an aqueduct!

the aqueduct isn't mine. Someone had one back on HQ or possibly .net ... I just make one sometimes and throw it into a map.

The pillars are a nice touch! Really like the Aqueduct idea!
