Why do you think this map will make a good addition?
Gunships is definitly one of the most played maps, but, there are some flaws in it. I decided to
re-make the map and add a few new features, which are:

- New spawn with an information board showing the rules
- Chests are easier to find
- Added a ''how to make/fire'' cannon walkthrough
- Added better spawns (beds) so you can get quicker to the battlefield
- Added the possibility to play CTF as well
- Added a 2nd type of cannons
- Added CTF rules as well
- You can gear up at your spawn area now so you can access the battlefield armed
- No overpowered equips
- Added brewing stand / enchanter
- Made the ships look 'nicer'

The ships are slighty smaller though, but I don't think that's a real 'problem'.

Has the map been tested?
Not yet.

Extra things?
Destroy blocks : enabled
Starting time : Day
Weather : Clear sky
Surrounding envoriment : Void
Difficulty : Normal
Monsters : disabled

Thanks for reading!

What this map does well:
It's the same old Gunships, but improved. Best features, the new cannons.

What this map doesn't do so well:
Ships are a bit to cramped in the lower deck.

Should this map be accepted?
Yes

Extra comments:
I have had a look at this map and should catch on as well as the last gunships. Well done Mala. :)

What this map does well:
It's the same as gunships but with a few adjustments to make it better.

What this map doesn't do so well:
The ships look like sailboats, and are tiny. We also already have a gunships, and I don't really see anything wrong with the current one.

Should this map be accepted?
Not decided.

Extra comments:
A list of items in the chests would be nice. You left out a lot of information. Do you have to destroy enchanting tables to get to the chests?​

''- Chests are easier to find '' Makes clear that you dont have to destroy a shitload to reach them.
Ships are not tiny, they're 70% the size of 'Gunships V1'

And making a giant list of what's in the chests is not really necessary since I've never seen someone doing that.

''and I don't really see anything wrong with the current one.'' Da Faq dude, go compare both maps now please, since you've no idea what the difference is.

@Malacath can you put an Upload link to the map please so we can test the map out? Would be appreciated.

Will edit post later, currently making something for A&T.

 

[Malacath]

Lol, seriously, I have no idea how to upload that map ^^

 

[Dragosh]

I didn't mean everything in the chest exact to the number, I meant just vague stuff, like some swords, some tnt.

If you built this on BB, select the whole map and type //save *Whateveryouwant*

Then in 24 hours max your file will be uploaded at
smp.blocktopia.net/schematics

I was just wondering what you thought was wrong with Gunships... We can always edit it to our liking. If I somehow sounded like I think your map is bad, I really didn't mean that at all. I love the map, I was just curious as to why you wanted to make it.

Alright then. I'll upload the map soon.

Stuff in chests :

Armor (iron)
Weapons (iron / stone)
Arrows (many)
TNT
Redstone
Ingredients for potions
Woolblocks (red & blue)
Firechargers (ammo for the 2nd cannon type)
Enderpearls
Potions
And some random stuff that makes life easier

Why I made it? I love building. Why not a 2nd Gunships that is different? So our players can choose, if they want a better one with new features, here it is. If they want to stick to the old one, they can!

EDIT : copied it, saved it, should be here within 24 hours from now.

 

[Dragosh]

Just check for it every couple of hours, it only took mine about 3 when I did it.

There is also possibilities to get full diamond armour on it, games on Gunships V1 don't tend to be much fun anymore unless you are playing a large game.

Ok, the file has been uploaded;

What this map does well:
All of the previous problems in Gunships are fixed. The spawn killing by the core, confusion with using the cannons, all of that everyone hates. The design of the boots look different too, which I like.

What this map doesn't do so well:
I'm a bit conflicted at the moment. Yes, this map fixes everything that the original Gunships had wrong, But I really hate the smaller ships. If anything, this map would be for for 2-8 players. Not 12.

Should this map be accepted?
A bit undecided. I'll change my vote when I see what others have to say.

Extra Comments:
I'm a bit happy that you nailed down the chest order for the ships.

 

[Malacath]

Kekekeke, you guys all think the ships are too small but that's a part of the design if you guys were wondering. Since more people are saying it. Why smaller? The other ships weren't too big. No no. But I want to make sure it is easier to defend your ship and also easier to destroy the enemies ship. That's my statement. Now, lets cast those final votes shall we

What this map does well:
It's a better version of gunships, and it's a good objective, fun theme, etc. The ships also look really nice.

What this map doesn't do so well:
Like others said, the map is somewhat smaller.

Should this map be accepted?
Yes

Extra Comments:
I think the improvements that this version has over the original version makes up for the small size.

 

[Dragosh]

After much review, this map has been Approved, and will be added to the server on the next restart!
Thank-you for this awesome submission/suggestion!
