This is my first map submission, an invasion, wherein you will be taken to task by the Rat. Two important things: ...1. close the front gate fast,now....2. take the bottom step off quickly from the outside front stairs ..go about your business....3. important thing is to direct the enemies attention away from the front gate,when he comes after you or he'll take it down, fill in the moat and run over you completely..4. add the step back to draw him to the stair case..5. Line the exterior walls between the front gate and the staircase with crossbows (reminder: be sure you take the bottom stair off quick before they get too close for you to be able to do it your dead if you let THAT happen.
Enjoy and I welcome all comments.
Playability: 3
The map plays well, although it really isn't that hard, even on hard with the monstrous invasions.
Balance: 3
As I said above, the map is overbalanced in favor of the defenders, and the scripting could use some work, too. Too much crammed together at one time, then spaced out too far between. Also, you need some more golas besides just the one.
Creativity: 3
Nice idea with the drawbridges, but nothing really outstanding.
Map Design: 4
Very nice map, with only a couple of flaws, such as the unnatural placement and look of the quarry and having all the resources grouped together within the ridged area. Would have been much more challenging to have resources farther away.
Story/Instructions: 2
No minimap, too detailed hints (if you have to follow a set list of instructions to win, it takes the fun out of it), and no description page storyline. In-map story was fine.
