lol okey dokey. remember you don't have to modify that in ed. you can just draw something up in photoshop, or make a new map so you don't have to move/erase things.

Re: Help tweaking/finishing map
Ok well i cant do any map drawings photoshop went down so here ill give the most detailed idea i can
The maps idea and backround is great...except we dont have miles we can fly through so we have to have u turns during flight.....so unless u really need it I would reduce 2 only haveing 2 flags 1 on the north{axis} and 1 on the south{allies},
instead of haveing axis spread acros the north end of the map make 1 flag in the center of the north and spawn point...put of course 2 hangers their both faceing east and west....so one and the others backs are faceing each other that so when the bomber plane flys by he can hit a varity of things....u could outfit the area with aa's and what not..a little village...spice the map up but dont put any spawn points or flags .... know for the allies, you can keep it the same...the hanger faceing east ,
here is map screen shot not best in world but hope it gives the idea, if u need a better picture just tell me

Re: Help tweaking/finishing map
Ok, so the far east jap base you would get rid of completely? And the west base, I'm a little confused: get rid of that as well? So it would just be the one middle base?
Would one factory be too easy to destroy? Even if you gave it lots of health? Axis would know where you're going...at least with two they would have to split their defenses? If you think about it, battle of britain has the one factory, but about four AA towers you need to destroy. If I wanted to be really unoriginal I could use those..but I like just a factory (or two). Three is probably too many though.
Maybe a factory in the B2/B3 grid square, and one in F3-ish? The one in F3 would be slightly more south than the one to the west (B2/B3 area).
I think everyone understands, but I'll explain it just in case: Right now soldier spawns are tied to each factory. When those are destroyed, no more spawnpoint (just like BoB). So having maybe one main airfield (F3ish), and another auxiliary airfield to the west would be good? I'm not sure...open to suggestions.

Re: Help tweaking/finishing map
..do you know how to add bots?
We've suggested/made a lot of changes to the layout of the map...the next step would be to edit the map terrain itself. Believe it or not I prefer BC42 for this.
