Complete Hillside Farm

The flag room buildings & their extensive routes are impressive to say the least. However, I believe you've replicated a similar problem with Subzero I (423603), where Archers can utilize the ledges to headshot almost any spot on the map except the flag room. There just isn't enough cover for a vantage point that high up, and the freedom to go from one end to the other by just running would make controlling Archers in that spot quite difficult. I like the theme & I think you executed it well, but this is a typical problem with //flip maps that can't really be avoided without taking away from the theme. It might function okay in comp with there only being 1 Archer per team, but this would spell havoc for full casual servers.

 

I think you could add a small (team-colored) glass wall just in front of the tunnel entrance/exit (on top of the wooden slabs). i do agree that the height of the extremities around the map is going to be hard to counter against archers...


another suggestion would be to make the trees larger, so to provide more archer cover as shown with the tree in the pic below


also, to help the offense, since it requires some effort to exit out of the flagroom building... (each turn is an easy opportunity for the defense to hit and get the flagcarrier along a wall) ... so id suggest removing the glass of this window in the flagroom to offer another quick exit (at the cost of some fall damage, unless you can add soulsand, perhaps even with covered carpets, in the dirt below)--


other than that, looks pretty good +1
