I don't like most of them. No disrespect for the makers, the maps are pretty but they are to many shot blockers. Shot blocker everywhere! Half of the core units are useless on the maps.
Is anyone from the creators even play the game? Seems like they don't!

You should still run analysis on both since this will provide some info as to how much maps affect the meta. If they don't differ then no harm in including it. If they do, you can see what changes (though 41 is small, but can't be a chooser) occur because of map difference. Though you would also need to consider the player difference as well, which will confound trends and make your conclusion a little more murky.

If only you had access to every game in coh2 everything would be crystal clear, but hey, you take what you are given.

I wold say wpc only. The reason I say this is that the new maps being tested in the map contest tourney caused a shift in the meta as people learned how the maps functioned in the first place. Furthermore many of those maps were designed as a reaction to the current meta. Combining them would actually obsure the value of what the current meta is like.

There is actually a lot of splines used thats shown in those pictures, so I'm a bit confused on what you mean.

While most are objects (Walls, trees, bushes, gravestones, the rocks on the side of the river)
There are some textures with the road, path in the grave yard. Though there is one area you can't see with a cobblestone texture blended for a path to the castle.

Not really sure what else I could use, as mud or ruts from vehicles wouldn't really work on a brick urban setting.

I do want to put an invisible spline around the river walls to provide some sort of cover however.

For splats I did use a blend of brick and concrete around the map, just more blended so it doesn't stand out much. Grass I used a combination of dark grass and patchy grass, though I'd admit it could be blended better.

But like I said, second map, still learning what I could use/knowing whats available to use.
