Its conquest. Symmetrical.

So nothing like this?


I'm going to make this map, but I'm not sure if I will be able to enter it. See, technically speaking it's asymmetrical, but game play-wise it is symmetrical.

Oh wow this will fill the book up nicely, all the new maps to be listed. I think I'll have to make a new chapter just for this contest...

Foundry only? You would. I guess it's a good idea for a truly fair contest, but I can't help but dislike that rule.

Anyway... I've been putting off writing the "how to build a Conquest map" section in the book but I can see that it's now needed, I'll get it up real soon.

A conquest map that plays like a tug of war should be symmetrical. I would check out the current conquest maps to get a better feel of how conquest should be played. I believe, this to be an unsaid rule to this conquest forge off. Note Senior members plus in the TG will be judges, wooo! Be ready people.

Damn my low rank and asymmetrical maps . lol I'll test with insane when you guys test the conquest maps.

I don't see any reason why that layout wouldn't count actually. It still works. In fact, from the players perspective it's identical, whereas in a symmetrical map it isn't (eg. one team turns right while another turns left at their respective corners).

I'd go for it.

That's inverse-symmetrical, I'm not sure if that would be acceptable. I've never seen an inversely-symmetrical Conquest map before, but I'm sure if plays fine it would be acceptable.

EDIT: Nvm, Phreakie's post reminded me, Chasm is inversely-symmetrical and is a lot of fun. I'm pretty sure you could submit it.

good thing its new maps.
Chasm would automatically destroy us. lol.
