    I apologise that the screenshots are some link, some not. Wanted to make is as easy as I could for the majority.
    I also apologise for some of the spacing. It's a bit derpy, and I don't know why it happened.

This map sets up for a very interesting premise, that of a ruin. It certainly wouldn't hurt us to have more diversity in our settings. However, I felt as if the aesthetic factor was just a little lacking. Harold and Coolio are both very good at making maps, therefore, expectations will be higher for their collaboration. I may be biased against all grass-and-stone maps, but I felt as if more of a landscape could've been pulled off here. When I think of ruins, I think of a destroyed civilization, forgotten by time and ravaged by the elements. I think of huge buildings, but from what I see here, it only looks to be a few stray huts and some mossy cobblestone. Knowing both of the mapmakers are incredibly skilled, I would love to see more structures and stone works on this map. I also do not think it would hurt to consider changing the biome to something besides grass-and-stone, but that is not essential.

After looking at this map on Buildbox, I noticed that it's really small, I do understand that you are trying to get the olden days feel, but ask your self this, can this map support 30 players running around it at the same time? I think it can but I think everyone can manage to get a house in.

I do love the design of this map, the cave looks amazing, even though this map was an experimental, I think it would be fun to play around on RoF, maybe little maps will be more fun than the bigger ones? Who knows!
