Would it be possible to add Boomtown to the bot? I would love to see some games on it so I can iron out any faults.

So, from a quick look in the editor my assumption is you are going for a map which is all about getting big as shit and becoming a wrecking ball. Big items, big armies, dragons, all that stuff.

Couple of things I noticed:
-Shop creeps aren't on Camp mode for some reason
-The ramps at the observatories are very sloppy looking
-For a map with the theme of "go big or go home" the map is super flat. I would expect some ridiculous hills and valleys that match the theme.
-Despite the theme, the items still dont make much sense:
       -Not that this will affect us too much, but the main base camp is a level 6 and a level 3 item from a 22 power camp.
       -The red ogre camps - also level 22 camp - drops a level 7, level 2 and a mana ward.
       -On the flip side, you have a 36 power camp with a comparable drop to the 22s (level 6, 2 and a watcher ward)
-Its probably intentional, but you can't walk past the mercenary camps to get to the healing well - you'll need to creep them first.
-100% unguarded dragon roost. I assume its intentional, but wow.

Thanks for the feedback! Here's updated version.

- Fixed shop creeps to be camp mode
- Added some more height/depth to hills all around the map
- Reworked a number of items and creeps
--- Fountain creeps are a bit easier to match the items, which I kept as level 6 drop + watcher rune, because I value watcher rune quite highly here. I'm just worried this can be crept with solo blademaster
--- Middle creeps are more balanced for the items they drop
--- Starting spawn creeps give weaker items
--- Removed the power-up items from the large ogre, but kept the level 7 drop because that guy is a level 11 beast with 3k hp, definitely hardest creep on the map despite lower level of the camp
- Yes it's intentional you must kill the mercenary creeps on the way to the fountain, but they are pretty easy
- Added some dragons to protect the roost

Can you elaborate what you mean by the ramps looking sloppy? Is it that they are straight across without height adjustment? I was trying to go for the appearance of stairs.
