The third Outpost of Barak Varr

Description
24.02 Updated Map now with beach assult !!!


Lore:
The third Outpost, Tradeport and Supply harbour of Barak Varr is located in the Bay of Wrecks in the Black Gulf. The outpost is garrisoned with multiple Miners who works at the local mine, a Gyrocopter station that monitors nearby treats and a Sea Engineer who commands a crew of a smaller ironclad. The close proximity to the city of Monte Castello offers increased trade and a ally against common foes. I suggest a matchup between a defensive Dwarven retinue against a Greenskin horde.

Map:
The Map is playable up to 4v4 but is indented as a 2 vs 2 - "large armies" enabled does look great and give a grand feeling. The defending forces deploy on the islands, while the attackers deploy in the countryside. The bridges provides a great defensive line, which will buy time for range units. I suggest a matchup between a defensive force that can pick any lineup vs a horde lineup with few artillery pierces and monsters BUT with a gold advantage.

For the Greenskin player (sod off dwarf player - this is not for you):
I cant stress enough that during deployment you should really take a look at the two small Goblin rafts in the water outside the main island in the back of the map, place a couple of wolf riders on them and sail into the harbor for a beach assault !!!

General:
For now I advise its use as a Multiplayer map. Currently the AI is rather buggy, though I plan to work on the AI tips. Feedback on bugs or general comments are welcome. Currently the mod editor seems to provide a couple of bugs related to the surrounding backgroud, which I hope gets fixed soon..
Enjoy.

@ Indy If you want then send me a friend invite and you can start to plan your next epic battle on my next map (it just went up as friend only - work inprogess).. Its way better than Outpost of barak varr . It is a mountain terrain with a siege that leads you inside a karak for the siege battle inside the mountain...

Hey Zoidberg, fantastic work on the map. Can you do me a huge favor and not make any updates to it for like at least 12 hours? I'm not sure what your plans on updating it were, but I got a completely insane replay with Oakley HiDef from THFEProductions, that would be great advertising for your map. But any changes or updates to it will corrupt the replay and render it useless. If you could hold off, it would be very much appreciated! And I'll let you know when its finished recording. Thank you!

Its raised terrain with a "prop" structure (dwarwen bridges in this case) aligned closely to the terrain for the looks.. Then for masking up the terrain under the bridges, its "Terrain holes"...
