This is a small Grass/Islands deathmatch map. The two playable races are Humans and Halflings. I think the reason I make so many small and two player maps is that I'm not a strong believer in a long, drawn out game. Smaller maps are fast, action packed, and easy to make. Have fun =)

Unfortunately, the Halflings do not have their own magic node! This made their excellent spellbook less than useless! There is a node for the Humans' spheres, namely the Earth Node, but the Halfling Life and Air are untreated. Please remedy! There seems to be a flood of small quick games these days, maybe its just me. Including sea combat; maybe fun for the humans but for those people who don't like seeing the AI fail at everything :(
Balance: 3
The unusual race combination... While not all of us love playing good versus evil, the humans have a tacit adavantage over their shorter counterparts. Mind you, I've seen a stack of Halfling Swordsmen trump an Orcish equivalent but the Humans still have an advantage; able to buy out bigger sections of the maps all over the place, alongside the ability to convert the Orcs to their cause :S

Very nice little map. I was trying to create a small deathmatch a while back, but failed. Im glad other people can do that for all of us to enjoy! A pretty little map with good shapes for the islands. Sadly there are no custom heroes, even on such a small map. I know, it may seem tedious, but it is always nice to have a few custom heroes in place of the pre-made ones :)

Very nice. Very nice indeed. A teleporter would have been nice to get across the rough terrain.
Story/Instructions: 2
Sorry to be too low, but there could definitely be more signs (with more information, not just placenames) a message pop-up or two. Let alone the main story, which is very little. Give us a reason to go over and slaughter the other side, regardless of how small the map is or whther or not it is a deathmatch.
Additional Comments:
I definitely want to review this again, after you add an Air Node and some story. Please keep making maps!

Yeah there's a few missing nodes, but the map is enjoyable as long as you play it with one of your friends rather than playing it against the AI.
Balance: 3
Well not really balanced since there is only 1 lvl 4 town and while the humans can convert the orcs to their side, halflings cannot. A rather simple fix would be to switch the race of the town to Undead. There are also 2 other Evil towns that should be switched to undead also.

Pretty good, but nothing out of the ordinary.
Map Design: 4
Not bad, but the whole map is based on the grass background, some snow/desert etc. could've been nice.
Story/Instructions: 2
Well there's no story to it and that's a big minus. Gave it 2 instead of 1 just because there's some post signs here and there.
Additional Comments:
A good map to play with your friends. |
