We dont need to create HQ's, just entry points right?

[Warbirds]

You need the HQs.  Doesn't matter where you put them since EiR disables them.  But WB will make you put them down.

ok thanks man

Make sure they're 'Starting_Positions' (will look like a grey HQ blueprint with 'HQ' on it), not the actual model of an HQ =).

[Kolath]

And make sure you have one HQ and one map_entry_point for each player.  A common error is accidentally having two items assigned to the same player.

In a similar vein, it doesn't matter what kind of control point (manpower, munition, fuel) you use for your sectors, they all are removed by EiR.

Mapping is a balance act.

Not to much bottle necks or it becomes a stalemate.
Not to much freedom or it becomes a backcapper fest.

Also mapping takes a lot of time and effort while there is very low respect and thanks earned in return by the community. Getting people to play your map the first time is a pain, too.

Try to avoid bridges as a whole and don't expect your first maps to be very succesfull. Takes a few maps & attempts in general to get it really right both graphic & gameplay wise.
