Welcome mapmakers to the EU_crpg_Melee mapmaking competition

The EU_crpg_Melee server is in need of some fresh new maps and you, players, are in need of cold hard cash 8-)

(click to show/hide)

So here are some rules/guidelines if you want to participate in this event:

Maps should be small: The size of native arenas or a bit larger. These maps are intended for a 30 man melee only server.

Scenery and terrain:  You can decorate the map with whatever you want but keep in mind that too much hills/slopes is bad for melee combat. If you will put houses in the maps unbreakable ladders that lead to roofs are unnecessary as there is no ranged on this server.

How to get your map in the competition:

Post it here with a brief description, a link to your map and some screenshoots:
Atleast some screenshots are mandatory (1st team spawn, 2nd teams spawn and a bird view of the map)

Maps will be tested and probably voted for on a poll. The exact process of how the winners are chosen is yet to be decided.

Question: Must the map(s) we submit be exclusive to the 'EU_crpg_Melee' server or would it be okay if the same maps were hosted elsewhere?
I know some server owners like to have original map rotations.

Awesome idea! Hopefully we'll see some new map makers enter, as well as all the usual suspects. I know I'll try to get something together.
Maybe you are not bad, but you are a boring person. Well, that's the end of the matter.

Winner will be declared in this thread, the exact process of picking the winner is yet to be decided. As for bandit mapmakers ill bug Gazda our main artist to make some :lol:

I'll submit Tropical: http://www.mbrepository.com/file.php?id=3401

It's relatively small & new, and I'm hoping should fit the criteria well

Hey man i think your map looks great however the spawns are waaaaay too far away from eachother for a 30 man melee only server

I tested it with worm and came to these suggestions for spawns (disregard the white cross in the bottom left of the screen):

(click to show/hide)
(click to show/hide)

so if you can tweak it a bit and resubmit the map that would be awesome.
