July 2 LoyalGuard, Duke and I ran through the PRMM map test. There were 10 maps on rotation. Some were outstanding with little to zero work needed others needed some work and then there were a couple that needed an overhaul. Here are some comments I jotted down in order we played them in.

Dusk Storm: Huge MEC city protected from USMC with a river. USMC have 3-4 places to cross. City has multiple levels of terrain with lots of climbable buildings.

Pro:
Very urban
Different routes
A lot of potential
No single building dominates the map.

Con:
Too many extra objects slow the game down
Too many CPs (had to have been at least 15)

3/5

Operation Compton: Fortified EU position with pillboxes and trenches including barbed wire. Chinese have UCB on a hill behind a decent forest. Trench system can be bypassed to the far right or left. About 7 capturable CPs. EU need to hold rear most to prevent two fronts.

Pro:
Original
Assault type map

Con:
EU weapons

4.25/5

Greasy Mullet: Huge map with a ton of open space with almost zero out of bounds. Lots of armor, helos and jets. It has some varied terrain.

Pro:
Lots of room to move around

Con:
Might have to balance out the air
Not too much cover/concealment for infantry.

4/5

Qwai River: USMC hold two positions on the map but are isolated from one another. Another huge map but this has a river (the Qwai) dividing the area. Each CP is placed in a different setting so there is a good amount of varying battlefieds. There is a good sized village/town/city in the middle for CQC. There are a number of wooded areas to conceal approaches.

Pro:
Absolutely stunning
Alot of variation to the fighting areas
Plenty of room to maneuver

Con:
Demands a lot of resources to run smoothly

4/5

An Jahlal: Big map with MEC city that controls a crossroads with 3-4 CPs in the city itself. 4 outer lying CPs (North, South, East and West) with the USMC starting at the Southern one. MEC hold all other CPs at the start. A lot of armor is available to use for both sides.

Pro:
Realistic setting for a battle
Infantry rule the city. Armor rules the fields.

Con:
None

5/5

Ejod Desert: ApparentlyCreator was trying to make a supply lines type of scenario as the map is extremely narrow with a city dominating the center. All of the CPs are in a line running North to South and each side starting at opposite ends.

Pro:
Some nice styling with Tank Redoubts protecting approaches at outlying CPs.

Con:
Too linear. Even inside the city you are forced towards the middle of the map.

2.5/5

Emirate Isle: The map is a single Island City. The city is packed with buildings and movement on ground is essentially thru alleyways. The map is still unfinished as it does not have any lightmaps.

Pro:
Loyal says its a pretty accurate depiction of a Middle Eastern city.

Con:
Unfinished
Almost too cramped
A lot of rooftop fighting

2.25/5

Mao Valley: USMC have a base camp to the far east of this pretty big map. The Chinese hold a number of CPs in the Valley Jungle with 3-4 sizable hills breaking up the low terrain. Vegetation is similar to Steel Thunder but without the Steel as there are zero vehicles.

Pro:
Tons of Vegetation and cover for assaulting squads.
Varied terrain
Multiple approaches
Defenseless CPs force defenders away from sitting on flags
Ambushes gallore

Con:
Defenseless CPs give attackers maybe too much advantage
A bit of a resource hog
Some CPs are almost off the map

4.5/5

Raid on Moskiye: River Delta in the Middle East dividing the USMC and MEC forces. Small villages dot the map are seperated by varied terrain with high grass.

Pro:
Very well put together
Lots of open space to maneuver

Con:
none

5/5

I will try to add some overhead shots to help with the visuals
