Playability: 1
While carnage is generally fun to watch, considering this is over quite quickly without much force or uniqueness powering it from behind, it's completely pointless to open up in the editor and test, or even worse with more clicks, go through the actual "Scenario" section in your main menu to try it out. More or less stated, you've got an overpowering force of St. Francises and legion-cataphract-esque troops in one corner, beating the buns off one red group, with a slightly closer matchup with armored elephants in another corner. It's over in about a minute in a half, with little to do afterwards. There isn't any real reason to play this from what I see, it's hollow... Empty carnage done within minutes.
Balance: 1
From what I see, impossible to lose. Truly, it is impossible to lose, unless you actually bother to kill off and false-move your units repeatedly. Each force wins on its own without so much as a click.
Creativity: 1.1
Like many scenarios here at granary---the ones submitted by new players anyhow---this is a quick battle with nothing to it. Must have taken several minutes tops, without too much effort to smooth out mistakes. Its units v. units, no story involved, no tricks, nothing creative... While you don't need all the Andrea Rosa stuff, at least provide some remote form of unique gameplay, like take a random map, and put a twist on it.
Map Design: 1.5
Hollowwed out forest, walls, shallows in one spot. It's not much to look at and very simple stuff. Didn't take too much time to do... My apologies for low marks, but this was overtly simply crafted without really scooping the editor's top crust...
Story/Instructions: 1.2
One line I believe? Nothing to be had.
Additional Comments:Chr1s, you have proven yourself to be semi-adequate at making MP twisted maps, even so simple as a "Monkey in the Middle" game. It works that way for you, so you should stick to it. This, unfortunately, has no point of downloading to it, as it holds no value in anything... Frankly, a waste of time. My apologies.. But that's how it goes down for the new-player esque "battle".
As always, thanks for the submission.
