Hello. This is my attempt at making a map using the Canadian maple leaf shape. I don't expect any great reviews for it, because it's just a little experiment.

I really don't really know what to do with all the empty spaces on this map, so any suggestions would be helpful.

The geysers behind the minerals at the expos next to the 12 expo have only 1500 gas, btw.

Anyways, here's the pic:

I like it :P

I'd suggest making the topmost expo inaccessible by land. It'd separate the three expos and make the outer two a bit easier to defend.

Interesting. Can you make me one that looks like a pot leaf? =P

But Canadians never got into space on their own!

It's not a pot leaf, but it's still imba. Terran have to push and incredibly short distance to crush a P.

Alright, I'll think of some solution to make it harder to push, unless you already have an idea.

Any ideas to fill up all that empty space?

What's with player twelve starting location? I thought that was only used for neutral buildings or is there something else i'm missing :unsure:

You gave me the perfect idea of a USA melee map in the shape of a bomb.

We're all americans here, I think, except for some canadians possibly.

Well, I'm all stumped at trying to make it harder for terrans to push, so any ideas would be welcome.

And I forgot to get rid of the P12 start location. I was using it to make my expos.

Maybe you could make the size of the leaf larger as to make it harder for terran to push because of more room to flank for protoss.

I'm not much of a mapper but i think tanks would own on this map, and this isn't such a big deal but aren't the gases on your second expansion not coherent with the terrain?

I love the creativity in this map leaves, and remember to keep on smiling :D

Very genious of you to make terrain into a leaf. The set-up for the start locations are also very creative. Keep up the good work. :D
