I like your new series. Ships designs are great. I like that ships built around a common design still have rather different silhouettes to prevent mixing them up. Quite impressed how you manage to pack quite an adventure into relatively small maps.

Thanks! That means a lot, since I usually have doubts whether my maps are any fun to play at all. Making smaller maps with (really) shorter play times always did make more sense to me than larger maps with 1+ hours play times (with exceptions), since not everyone has hours to spend in-game. I like my maps to be a good 20-30 minute bash with some story, and generally not something that will punish you at every turn.

Also, I'm glad you like the ships! Their overall design just sprung to mind one day, and I thought they would make interesting ships as opposed to my other ones, which are more like your standard ships.

I somehow missed most of your maps so going back and playing a few, this was also a very very good. Great battle, compact but challenging throughout. Also a fan of the ships, very cool shape and design. 10/10  :D
