Ettlebruck Station suggestion/disccusion

The left and center VP areas i think are pretty well done. Both teams have more or less an even chance to control them. But the one on the right favors the lower team. Simply because the lower team is plane closer to it. A lot of maps feature VPs that are easier for one team to get to than the other, thats not really a big deal normally.
The big issue is that once you control up to the VP, it is not hard at all to then take that last resource point and control the WHOLE right edge. And since the lower team is closer, they can send in units at a much faster rate than the upper team and just so easily win any fights there.
Also the only way to get in to that part of the map and fight back are through some narrow streets. After having the whole side of the map dominated, its just so easy to take over the rest of the map as you can easily flank behind any units anywhere really..
Does anyone else feel like the base locations need to be adjusted a little so that the upper team can get in to the VP area about the same time? The upper team needs to have a chance to actually prevent the inevtiable wraparound that always happens there..

Its horrible 2v2 map by the design.
Apparently someone thought Minsk Pocket with lots of buildings will be fun.

Favors the right players and the allies very much.

okw outplays allies from the beginning by superbly using the first sturmpio -> allies fails to retaliate (regain the initiative) in like a minute -> okw blob grows, sturm officer ftw -> big blob of okw sturm-deathsquads burns everything it touches.
allies outplay okw in the beginning and reduce the impact the first sturmpio has on the field -> the match goes back and forth -> shocks come and axis players are like "omg here it comes" -> more shocks come -> big blob of shock, the fucking hammer of the soviet union, vaporizes axis unit around every corner.

usually how it goes:

yes I agree that the victories can be nearly one-sided. I think it is easy to camp down the right side of the map, especially if you are on the bottom. This map is fun, but it is a cluster bomb in a 4v4

The entire eastern section of the map is extremely cramped. If the map border in the east was extended to include the road surrounding the eastern VP there would be a lot more room to maneuver vehicles and position infantry around that point.
i never really even thought about that, thats also a good way to solve the issue around the east edge of the map. i was mainly suggesting to move the upper bases closer and/or lower bases further as itd probably require the least amount of work and perhaps would have a higher chance of being implemented.
If the out of bounds area were expanded it would indeed atleast be possible to get in there and fight back, rather than just tunnel in through the same 2 narrow streets and get pinned, mined, and killed.

It could be ok 1v1 map.

i could of like the setting, not all maps have to be open fields for easy tank spam. Theres just that ONE section on the eastern side that so easily favors the lower team
