I couldn't get enough decent players to play (no B- ever plays UMS), so these C reps will do: (4 total)

The concept of the map is the usage of basilica as terrain in lieu of using high dirt cliffs to produce elevation. Basilica is normally unbuildable, so no Twilight map had this sort of terraining prior to this. Everything is vision/hit tested, including the stacked high basilica. (Thanks to HK for the method of blending basilica!)

TvP is definitely balanced as seen through testing; cheese rush builds like 5pool are not strong here due to rush distance. I have not seen enough zerg plays to comment on Z balance but it does not appear too bad at the moment.

I'm guessing someone else will probably tell you, so ill tell you first. The upper high ruins shouldn't be tankable, so I guess try and make it so people can't land units up on the upper-most cliffs



None.

He means the ones in the upper left and right corners. Terrans could land siege tanks up there and blast the crap out of the main's mineral line. Big advantage for Terran, if they can get there without the opponent noticing. If the enemy has no air units, and the terran gets enough tanks up there, those tanks are never coming down.

I love the atmosphere of this map. Very gloomy.
