I just thought I'd remind everyone that I am accepting maps for the weekly King of the Hill match. If accepted, your map will be used as the first map in a KotH best-of-5 series.

The size must be between 96x96 and 192x192.

You don't necessarily have to make a new map. If you have made one in the past that you feel is of good quality, feel free to submit it.

Post your maps in this thread.

So far, only the first two weeks have been filled, so there are plenty of openings for all of your maps.

Hmm, well this is probably what I'd submit first out of my collection. I've been told it's a bit unbalanced but I've got the more balanced version on my other comp so I'll get it when I use it again.

Here's (http://www.warboards.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=3656&d=1146947187) the map. (no pic yet either.)

nice anyways

Aight, I was bored and made two melee maps.

Keep in mind these are my first maps, so don't be too harsh when the time for critisism comes.:P

Frozen river I tried to make as even as possible without being a mirror image.

The Arena is just a map I had fun making.

Hope they're good,

Black Abyss.

Those maps are ummm...how do I put this nicely....not exactly up to the standards I'm looking for.

U-238's map was better (yet seemed quite imbalanced). I still think we could get some better maps entered here...hell, I might even make another.

Lammy, I think you're right about T>P on my map. Those walls plus the raised middle platform makes flanking very hard and Terran can basically just steamroll. I think I'll remove those 4 middle walls and post a new version before the next KotH. Also, I'm going to re-arrange the mineral clusters to prevent cheese. Anything else you notice that could use some editing on my map?

Ah well, I thought as much. At least it was a bit fo experienced gained, and was worth a try.
