Firstly, take a look at this picture.
It's my ideal map design so far. Similar in layout to C&C_Under except the bases are higher than the battlefield. The map would also be quite large, similar in size to C&C_City. Ideally, it would be situated around a beach head, in the glaring summer sun.
If i could model in GMAX i would love to design this landscape myself, but unfortunely i'm totally clueless.
I'm submitting this idea here so that somebody more capable than myself will be able to create it.
Just imagine the map ingame, i think it'll look great.
Lemme know your opinions. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

One thing though... The spiky metal objects are called hedgehogs.
Really? I've always known them as dragons teeth since the good ol' days of Total Annihilation.
It'd be great if you could make it.
This brain of mine is totally buzzin full of map ideas, it's just a shame i can't make them myself.

ACK put down the dictionary ![[Roll Eyes]](rolleyes.gif)
Like the map, if i was a good mapper i would do it for you. But it seems you have two other mappers who should do it just fine. The map reminds me of a beach map i was thinking about doing. It looked alittle like yours.
Like the drawing

Excellent, i'd really appreciate it if any of you had a go at making it.
ACK, you are more than welcome to make the map yourself. Tho i wasn't too sure if you'd find the time considering all the DM maps you're working on right now.
Laubi, you should also give it a try.
Apache, your efforts would also be very well appreciated.
Once it's made we'll decide the better one.
I'm looking forward to seeing the end results when this map is done... fill me in with details as you're creating it.
Thanks all.
