-> JohnWE's Review:
Original Concept: 15/20
Balance: 15/15
Eye Candy: 20/30
Fun Factor: 15/20
Triggers: 10/15
Comments: Nicely done terrain, but has the same lighting bug when a superweapone goes off; the map becomes much brighter or much darker, with it not returning to normal. The spots are balanced well, and this is quite close to a westwood quality map. The terrain is, again, very nice.
Total: 75/100
-> Braddoc's Review:
Original Concept: 18/20 –
I can not say it is incredibly “original” but you have done a great job, it has a good feel to it as well.
Balance: 15/15 –
Very well balanced, Great job!
Eye Candy: 29/30 –
Brilliant work, your texturing was phenomenal. Some cliff areas a bit repetitious and some are a bit straight, but other than that- I am stunned.
Fun Factor: 19/20 –
Great job, the AI hits hard but you can defend yourself from the high ground. Balance plays such a major roll in the Fun Factor, and because you pulled it off very well it increased the fun level by a large margin.
Triggers: 13/15 –
Your ambient triggers worked as expected and your loops added a nice touch, everything was great. It wasn’t necessarily out of the ordinary, but on this map it didn’t have to be. Nicely done!
Total: 94/100

Total: 77% ;79%
- While perhaps not one of the most professional maps, it plays very well.
- Good use of triggers.
- Cliffs are a bit repetitive.
- Centrepiece is rather nice.
-> Flak's Review:
Original Concept: 17% - Relativly simple layout, but effective nonetheless.
Balance: 12% - Top players are closer to the goodies in the centre. Fine
otherwise.
Eye Candy: 26% - Very attractive map with nice cliffing and ground detail. Don't
know what the green lighting is for in the centre however, it's quite
overpowering to look at.
Fun Factor: 15% - Loads of build space, resources and tech buildings means you can
have a vast army. This can get repetitive though, and on the small map
there isn't much else to do other than take on the enemy head on.
Triggers 13% - Working day/night loop, some nice traffic going about, on top of
some well used sounds. Sets the scene.
Total: 83%
-> Lion's Review:
Original Concept: 14/20 Standard 4-corners layout, but realistic looking.
Eye-Candy: 24/30 Nice Temperate map with an eye-appealing terrain layout. The few buildings do add interest. Cliffs are nice.
Fun Factor: 14/20 Would play again. Good variety of strategies can be used on this map. No AI pathfinding problems.
Balance: 12/15 A little heavy on the amount of gems available, but equal amounts for all players. Other than that, balance is good.
Triggers: 0/15 none
Total: 64/100
