The map is a good map for 2v2 or 3v3 in a left vs right kind of game.
It is divided in 2 halfs by 2 streams of lava. Units CAN enter the lava, but try to avoid it, since the waterdamage and unitspeed are tough.
About the resources, on each side there are a couple of low metal area's, and 2 good ones, allowing you to make 0.7 and 2.2 metal in the beginning.

Windspeeds vary from 6 to 19

I've given tanks and kbots a speedboost, since they have to travel a long distance to get across the map.

The part of the map between the 2 rivers has a lot of metal, but it's hard to keep controll over it, since that area can easily be reached by a pop-up or HLT.

Several strategies can be applied to bring your battle to victory.

Here is the minimap, screenshots will follow:

And off course, here's the DOWNLOAD LINK.

About the screenshots, would someone with a decent graphics card make some for me? Either post them here or leave me a PM. Thanx.

Neat map, the lava rivers look really good. however I think that the map hardness should be increased a bit more since puddles of lava form rather easily.

(for features)

If this is true it might even add more to the landscape. or even a few flames in the lava.
Or perhaps more like bursts of fire if you have destructible features that cycle in bettween the burning then non-burning features within the lava :-)

well it'd need sparks first so it's not all too feasable.

Maybe we should make lava and damaging water able to ignite features? ;)
