New map help

[neobowman]

i'm planning on making a map with wide open spaces and only a few choke points. any help on what to put in it?

Terrain. Start Locations. Minerals. Gas. Description.

That's pretty much it.

Wide open space? Doesn't sound too great. And doodads. And whether you noticed or not, I've been seeing more melee maps with extended terrain nowadays...
