    Playable? Definitely. All the hexes work, all the refs work, the secrets work, everything.

    Playtested? No, not in the slightest.

    I wish this would have been an empires changelog update instead.

    No need, I've included the vmf in the download. There aren't really secrets if you have Hammer.

    Thinking about this map. The ref values probably mean that the slippery slope is high on this map (because seriously who would want it otherwise), as the two refs in the middle are twice as valuable as the ones in the bases, and base moving isn't particularly viable.

    Of course, all that is speculation, because we all know that this map will never be played. I mean I could send things out to people, but... eh

    Edit: But seriously, does this seem like anything that anyone here would actually like to play?

    Yes, when will it be released?

    If you need to test it, go chat with Candles-san about briefly getting it on the epic beta dedi. We were recently reminded that dedicated servers are different from listen servers.

    After that, go find Vicki and start groveling (jk, Vicki's chill).

    Define released?

    There is a working version available on the forums. Is that not what release means, or am I missing something?

    Go track down the server admins and get it on the pubs. When it's on the typical pub rotations and it's not crashing servers, then it's "released" in my book.

    B1 is up. Fog, cubemaps, and a 3D skybox have been added.

    The same way of pushing anything else in empires. Constant whining to whoever is responsible for something. Dont forget to be extra cunty while youre at it, only assholes seems to get what they want.

    Ask viperVicki to put it on Viper's map test server http://forums.empiresmod.com/member.php?u=2646

    Or 1 of her root admins.

    Or host your own server. Post here times and dates your hosting and hope someone joins to try it.
    If people like the map they will bug the shit out of people to get your map in rotation.

    Probably the best thing to do. Worked for nuclear.
