Wit pads aren't the same on both sides

I don't see how you can hit one wit space with a bs and splash the other? They are not close enough. In fact, you can not even hit a spot between them and splash both. To be honest I'm not sure which tile you are talking about, can you maybe draw on a copied image so I can see what you mean?

And while the max width is 14 tiles, the actual playing field is no greater than 10 tiles wide at any given point. So that clears that issue up, doesn't it?

He's saying that the Bombshell can splash 3 wit spaces and the base at that position not all of them at the same time.

Correct. I didn't mean that you could splash one and hit the other with a single shot, only that they are both within range from that hex. This isn't necessarily a big problem, of course. The only real way to know for sure if it's imbalanced in Scallywags' favor is to play lots of games on the map and see what happens. Sadly, we cannot. Sad

This, however, is a problem, and I'm amazed that I didn't notice earlier.

I made a fork. Hope you don't mind. I mean no disrespect. I just liked the map and thought I'd tinker with it for fun. Smile

How did you post your maps after creating them?

No disrespect taken, but I would request that your fork keeps the original name to give credit Smile

Thanks Quantum Apocalypse. I think I'll come to you for all my Q&A. Eh? Eh? Get it!? Oh, man, do I ever find myself hopelessly hilarious.

Anyway, here is my map

I realize it is not even top to bottom, that was a mistake on my part. It is hard to count at 1 in the morning.

I don't like that you have no choice but to spawn 2 runners as your opening move if you want your wit pads

Right, but you have three bonus wits so you don't necessarily have to get all three your first turn, though I don't know why you wouldn't want to. The nice thing is that the third one is sufficiently far enough away that you wouldn't have to worry about losing it. The same can't be said about the other two. You'd also need a medic if you don't want your sniper getting taken out on turn two.

Really though, I just liked the pattern and it was my first go at making a map.

I added a runner for each team...
