I've played a ton of games (20-30+ I'd guess) on this map in testing, and it feels pretty balanced to me. It is symmetrical and doesn't favor one type of playstyle more than another.

Conflict in this map directs to the arena, being the highest elevation in the center of the map. But there's some cover in getting there with trees. The arena itself makes for some tough choices with the Ruined Battlements - you can step on top of them for extra height, but they'll give an autowound to all adjacent figures when destroyed! So there's a risk/reward element to gaining height, at least temporarily until some of the Ruined Battlements get destroyed.

Very cool! Soundwarp will probably hate all the DOs, but you know I'm into them. Psyched to see you running this.

[Ericth74]

Map is great. I'm surprised/disappointed to hear about the lack of love for map DO's. I'm a huge fan of them.

[IAmBatman]

Soundwarp works in mysterious ways. Glad to have you on my team on this one.

This map makes me want pillar DO's lol. Love the look here, havent played on it yet but I like the tree placement and the 3 hex elevation before the startzone.

Also maybe I'm just blind but are there glyph areas that could be good for this map?

[Ericth74]

Personally I don't think this map needs Glyphs. Balanced without them.

[Arch-vile]

I admit I'm not big on map glyphs - I pretty much always play without them. Right now the map pushes you to the center Arena, and the 4 other areas of height on each side keep figures spread out on their way forward. Because of that I'm not sure glyphs anywhere would benefit this map.

Pillar DOs would be cool for sure.

I propose for initial

[Dr. Jekyll]

Yea!

[Yodaking]

yea

A pillar DO sounds cool to me as well. It wouldn't be easy to destroy, but when you did it could have an impact.

[IAmBatman]

Yea

My only worry is it’d feel tough to differentiate a pillar DO from the evergreen tree DOs.
