again the design is nice but you need to loose most of the green nebula as it puts the Borg at a very big disadvantage and makes those moons overly defend able by other races.

I know the green looks pretty but you need to think about balance between races. If this was a Fed vs Borg game the Borg would be raped which is ironic considering the name

Rubbish, why dont you face people while playing borg and you will understand why.

MrXT, why dont you lay off a bit and try to explain to him what changes you would make and why, just calling it rubbish is rude and overly harsh for someone who is just trying to give new and interesting maps to the community. You dont have to be and expert at fleet ops to make maps, so he may not understand some of the nuances of the gameplay (such as the nebula and the borg). Just calling it rubbish doesnt help at all. I like the ideas of your designs, making non symmetric maps balanced is a tough trick and I applaud your effort. And if you dont like it XT then dont download it, simple as that. Hes trying to give something to the community, try being a little more constructive then just saying its rubbish please.

It looks to me that he was calling redmanmark86's comment about the Borg being at a disadvantage rubbish, not the map itself.

The map looks nice, if a bit heavy on moons. If the enemy gets too confident he can abuse the Nebs, spam the Borg Boarding Party ability.

ignore MrXT he is a lonely looser who adds nothing but grumpiness to the community who doesn't understand how to give constructive criticism (coincidentally he also does nothing for the community himself ha).

The design is good and you can have green nebula in your map but you are better of placing it away from moons in the middle of nowhere, and again less moons

P.S. would be great if you could indicate start positions and how many players the map is

ok, i think about it. i guess you are right with the moons :-) THE MOONS :-) it looks like iam loving them...hehe

i dont have the feeling for balancing i think. but i keep moving ahead with building maps :-)
