icey chasms are pretty much white->blue fades(my dad's been to antartica) so that isn't a worry. It's a good idea but odds are if there was icey casms, 70ft+ walking metal guys would cause said chasms to collapse.

something tiny like icyrun might be a fun one to include (albiet a bit larger)

the reason i've enjoyed games of icyrun with gundam is that i can play a 1v1 and it'll be over a lot faster than if i were to play any number of other massive maps

yeah I completely ignored the tiny part because spring has so darn many tiny maps. that and narrow valley remake is going to be a tiny map with a similar theme.

keep in mind any dasher type unit can boost all over those mountains, they act as a speed boost rather than a slow down for those guys.

KaiserJ wrote:the other reason i suggested that map in particular was because gundam has a ton of -huge- maps, and no -tiny- ones

I can still make it tiny, that is a lot easier for me to do. Honest.

God my balls hurt, but I just can't stop fapping to that!

Oh lawdy Smoth! That is looking awesome. The only possible negative I see is that it is not Painted Desert

It looks like you are keeping the heightmap pretty close to the original- it was an awesome map in all regards, except for the cliffs at the top, they made something of a dead zone for all but air and all-terrain units; might you consider a few access points here and there so that it does not become the exclusive playground of booster equipped dashers?

next version of gundam artillery units get back high trajectory...
