Re: What Makes A Good (Competitive) C3G Map? (Con. Chernobyl
I think with Sunnywood and Underwood in particular, there's a lot of potential for turn one and two star zone bombing.
C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

So.. larger footprint (not smaller) is preferable? And no glyphs? Are glyphs not used at all, or does C3G have its own set? Start zone separation is pretty well understood on the Classic side. Is there consensus on the ideal separation for C3G? I'll get out of the way, but I'm very interested to see where this converation goes. |

Re: What Makes A Good (Competitive) C3G Map? (Con. Chernobyl
Fwiw, I'm definitely not a map expert. It does seem Conflict Chernobyl is pretty close between start zones too. I think it's a *little* more blocked off in terms of ability to block LOS from attackers, but no great shakes in terms of differences.
I'd guess you probably have more map authority than just about anyone in these parts, so definitely don't feel like you have to hide in the background! We'd definitely benefit from hearing your thoughts. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

As for map size. Being small isn't always an issue. I do a lot of testing on Conflict Chernobyl, but mostly because the matches are short and sweet, and play is predictable on it. But I also find it boring, as the games seems to play out the same way. Control the center height or snipe from the side height. |

Yeah I would say we don't have any real map experts here. If you look at our limited number of released maps vs our vast number of released(and on deck) figure designs.

Re: What Makes A Good (Competitive) C3G Map? (Con. Chernobyl
I think part of what may slow startzone bombing on Conflict Chernobyl is that the center section with jungle plants feels like the safest place on the map to be, so a lot of players may hesitate to push past that or feel like it's a risky endeavor.

I have a blast with more unpredictable maps in looser gameplay though. The talk about SZ bombing is very interesting. I think Bats has a point that on CC, the middle feels like the safest place to be, so SZ bombing comes at the cost of giving that space up. |

Re: What Makes A Good (Competitive) C3G Map? (Con. Chernobyl
What's interesting for me is I feel completely differently about playtesting versus competitive gameplay.
In playtesting, I want that consistent feel of the map with fewer variables that might affect the costing of a unit. In competitive gameplay, I like having more tactical outlets that can give me a chance to even the playing field if the army match ups aren't in my favor. I feel like rather than adding to "randomness" these additions reward the more tactical player. C3G can be played with official Heroscape, but it's not recommended.

Re: What Makes A Good (Competitive) C3G Map? (Con. Chernobyl
Never really thought about it but I agree with that.
Probably why most of my testing has been on like three maps. Cannot even remember my original before Island Plane Crash. City Park is my current go to. Really need to try Elm Street. Never played Chernobyl except maybe at the Con. |

What Makes A Good Map?
I'm back once again, with a somewhat off-topic post. Apologies. It kind of relates, at least. Right?
What kinds of maps do you like? Come vote in the ScapeCon II Map Contest! I know this is C3G, but that doesn't mean you can't pick your favorites. There are three brackets, and you can vote for as many (or as few) maps as you want. Thanks for taking a look. Bracket 1 Bracket 2 Bracket 3 |

Re: What Makes A Good (Competitive) C3G Map? (Con. Chernobyl
I'll take a look! Hoping to run a map contest here in C3G soon, but I need to finish up Mongul first.
