Default Re: PBW-New Koth Maps

4 different maps to look at

map 6 is a small multi warp point map.

The traditional Koth style map with 2 key systems to defend. But many warp points lead into the two systems. East and West attacks.

Map 8 Is a new style koth map Very small and with every system containing planets. There are 3 main attack coridors for each empire to take.

Map 19. Is a twist on the traditional Koth map.
Now instead of 2 systems to defend there are at least 3 a side. Each system has a ton of warp points. This is another small map.

map 23 is a varation of the new style koth map. Not as small but with many attack points across the map. This variation is of the all planet maps.

I have some small crazy maps as well as some extremely large maps that would make even primative shake. ( Primative these maps are based off stock so rock none is not at a disadvantage )

Let me know what you think.

There are more than enough maps in this pack.


I did create a mod to make these maps. I am just waiting for some of geo's systems to add to this and then I will release the Koth Map making mod

Tomorrow I will post a teaser of what I call the crazy map.

Also the 4 maps posted do not have the starting positions yet.

I really like the maps that have alot of warp points in them. I think those will be a bLast to play a KOTH game on.

I thought the one with a crazy amount of warps (19) was a bit confusing, with too many warp-points to defend.

The ones with two clusters weren't even in cluster size, so maybe you should delete out a system or two from the larger side, or place the starting positions so that neither side has a claim on a specific cluster.

spoon. point well taken.

The maps are identified in their directories for how many warp points they have and the size and if they are all planet maps. Maps were designed with 3 , 5 , 10 warp points.


For the placement of starting positions. I will spend the time to attempt to balance this on each map. Postion 1 and 2 will be given the greatest amount of fair starts.
