Thank you both for your kind words! I really do need to get back and make some more of these things. They are so much fun to design!

Great maps Tom. I totally plan on playing on a couple of these. Thanks for sharing.

Cool maps, Tom. How playable do you find Skirmish Underneath the Park to be?

Thanks guys. Skirmish Underneath the Park is quite playable as long as you stay away from double spaced figures. There is no way for them to climb up from the bottom level and many of the larger ones simply do not fit in the sewer. It was put throught the Battlefields of Marvel (BoM) process and came up short mostly for the problems with double spaced figures. You can read the judges comments HERE, HERE, and HERE.

If you are limiting yourself to just superhero battles though, the map plays great. It is very stable so there is no danger of a tiny bump knocking it over. Access to the bottom level is not difficult because there is basically one central wall dividing the sewer and subway portions of the map leaving plenty of room for players hands.

Cool, thanks! It was the issue with player's hands (and seeing where you're moving a figure) that I was mostly interested in.
