Okay all this hype over these maps and competition has made me want to build one too.... Making a Silverpine/Deathrose hybrid. Hopefully it turns out good. Not submitting it for review though since im a judge and all.

@FML|WorpeX I can add creeps from different map scenarios right?; for instance, cityscape has few creeps compared to Sunken ruins.

That's easy, in unit palette, go to Neutral -> hostile, then just change the tileset dropdown to select from other tilesets

Finished my other map: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/ironforge.291189/
Not sure if eligible for contest, as more 2v2v2v2 then ffa, but would like to enter it if possible.

Anyways, work have now begun on my real entry. Here's a teaser:

It's a 7 player ffa map based on Gilneas.

About to look at your map Cinderfire. Looks like a really unique design!

I'm quite proud of it! I hope it plays as well with people as it has in my private tests with bots.

@Cinderfire

Ironforge is a very interesting map. It really shows off your skill in combing doodads together to make a really great looking theme. It has a cool RPG dungeon feel to it. However, I don't think its appropriate for melee games in its current form. Bases are small, there isn't a lot of wood, no expansions, small pathways and waygates are big concerns.

I'm excited for Gilneas though! Never had a 7 player map before. One thing to keep in mind is the end spots might have an unfair advantage due to not being surrounded like the other 5 start locations.

@Cinderfire it looks nice, specially the ground and colors used. It certainly looks much different than previous submitted maps. My second map has a slightly similar apperance, or maybe not haha.

This is a rough draft of my map.
I am going to further polish it if it is judged as eligible.

I have a question regarding the items for different levels.

For the map scenario I'm using right now "Cityspace" the items that appear level 4 are shown on the first image.



These items seem fine to me, except that Legion of Doom Horn is in here, and I remember in other maps this item was considered level 5; in other words, it wouldnt appear in level 4 permanent items just like shown in the next two images.





Even some of the lvl 4 items that are charged such as the drake dragon, golem, fellhound, appear available on my map, but when I look at other maps, these items are too strong, hence considered lvl 5 charged and what I get for lvl 4 charged are only stones of health, book of necro, hurricane rod, ankra of resurrection, etc.



Does anyone know why these items appear in different levels ? shouldn't they all be on the same level for any map scenario/layout ?
