ScapeCon III Marvelous Map Contest: CONGRATS to APOC NOW!

[Flash_19]

ARV CONTEST WINNER!

Sir Heroscape, Nomad, and myself are pleased to announce the contest winner for the ScapeCon III Marvelous Map Contest! For those who had forgotten, there are two winners for the contest - a winner by popular vote (claimed by @Typhon2222 's excellent-looking map, Apocalypse Now) and one chosen by the ARV judges. After reviewing the maps, we have decided to award the honor to Desolate Courtyard, a map by @Awaken515 !

Spoiler Alert!

Desolate Courtyard by Awaken515

After carefully studying the maps, we collectively felt that Desolate Courtyard is deserving of the honor of winning the ARV portion of the contest. It is well constructed, with a solid distribution of height, road, and LoS blockers. While some small tweaks have been recommended for the map (further playtesting could help illuminate exactly what tweaks need to be made), we also felt that this version of Desolate Courtyard was among the maps that required the fewest potential changes to be balanced and fit for tournament play.

We're excited to get more experience with Desolate Courtyard and the other maps submitted to the contest. There were so many fantastic entries! The community continues to prove again and again that we are in a golden age of scape cartography.

Well done Awaken515! We're excited to see more maps from you in the future! And thanks again to @MegaSilver for organizing and carrying out the contest!
