Liviasc River (2), yes another small map....but i wanted to make a quickie Options

[Ixith]

yes yes i know i said a big map will be in your future and it still is but i just felt like doing this quick map. and from this point on i must work to finish the SMMC so no progress updates (probably) on the other maps until after i send my map in. (which will be monday night probably) anyways i think this is ready now. give me a lot of comments especially if you played it ingame. and let me know if you find an error.

and the train iv noticed sometimes will have either of these happen...
-the back half stops and eventually starts going again to catch up with the front half
-the train just stops altogether. (usually after the train hits another vehicle and blows a part of the train off)
dont know how to fix that though i tried numerous times.

so anyways...
Map Info:
Name: Liviasc River
Map Maker: Ixith
Map Size: 64X90
Players: 2
Theatre: Temperate
Info: A 2 player map that does NOT require FS. The map features plenty of buildspace and a decent amount of tiberium for the players. It has a river that is in a valley and is cliffed off by water cliffs.

Story: This area is north of the Holixe River region. The Liviasc River and the Holixe River join together on down the way to make a much larger river. The Liviasc River just like Holixe River plays a key roll to getting troops across these areas.

This is my 19th map so enjoy

Well there i was kind of relying on what Aro has told me... I Will give a better and more detailed rating later, i do not have alot of time right now... I appologise if i have been repeating myself, i do tend to do that at my old age... 20... Yeah, i'm old alright.

Anyway, i must say, what i mainly liked about this map was the use of triggers and the lighting, the train was a very nice addition, but as i've mentioned above, it was ashame the thing blew up after about 5 minutes of game play.
The lighting was good, i think it has a very nice feeling to it, kind of like a midnight time of day... But, it could just be me, but i think that its too bright in some places... Yeah, i know that, that sounds quite wierd, but its mainly them bridge repair huts, they really stick out.
With detail, i give it a 4/5, how can i not give it a 4/5? Its good, and nothing much more to say, very nice cliff and water work... May i reccomend you do not use water tile 1 too much? In my opinion, that tile is not very realistic (you know what i'm like with realism, so...).
Lighting is a 4/5 atmosphere-wise, as i've said, a little too bright at some places (could just be me) and a little too dark in other places (could also just be me). However, lighting work on the invisible posts is near perfection, very good job.
Now on the fun sale, yeah, it was fun, only the AI (Level 2) was pretty rubbish, not sure why but i only got attacked one by a few infantry units and the base i encountered 10 minutes into game play was... Pathetic to say the least, not that, that is your fault of course.
Not much more to say... This is all i can think of at the moment, not alot of faults despite the mangled train and dull AI... Apart from them two minorities, very good work.

Anyhow, i would vote for a spotlight, as the way i see it is 8/10 and above is spotlight worthy, however, i do not wish to support a spotlight as the map is too small...
I will support a spotlight as soon as i see some more 100 x 100 or above maps... O.K?

Right, well i appologise if i repeated myself in there, as i said, i tend to do that at my old age.
