And keep the objects and decoration to a minimum. We don't care about looks, we care about performance!

i7 like a alrge, open field, but the spawn points should contain some kind of semi-defendable structure (abandoned small village?)
that would allow for many different types of playing, which is what a good map does.
Across the plains tehre should be a few large trees/rocks that can provide cover when advancing and the two spawns should be far enough away from eachother to avoid shooting from spawn to spawn.

How about a sea battle map?  Two galley ships alongside each other with narrow planks connecting them or one ship rammed into the other at the front end so they're in the shape of a wide "V".  Maybe some ramps on the deck so cavalry can do running jumps to the other ship.  With deep water so that a fall off the side means instant death.

Heh. I remember the boat map we had on the Risen_melee server. Was really fun :D
I wonder if we still have the map somewhere...
This game isn't about being skillful as much as its about saying things in general chat that enrage people who then go to murder you but in their rage they make dumb mistakes which gets them killed.

Ideally I wanted to do this as a wooden fortress but because of the lack of gates, we could swap out the gate and switch for the large doors open-able from the inside.

I would recommend saving these images so you can alter their size on your screen/orientation. Please tell me if this is unclear or you're not interested!

Thanks

I have a blue print right here. http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,13340.0.html

Maps are always cooler with drops to your death on them!

Some sort of balanced arena type dome death something:
