Shakara VI: Swamp Assault

Description
Since we haven\'t been updating recently (which, I\'ve said before, we apologize for), the stuff people have been sending in have been piling up in the inbox. I\'m going to try to upload one thing a day \'till it\'s empty, in no particular order. My reviews [i]will[/i] be a bit shorter to manage that.

So, without further ado, here\'s the \'file of the day\': a [i]beautiful[/i] swampy map from a_speck_of_dust.

Shipped Dagobah, you ain\'t got nothing on this. Shakara IV is twice the swamp you\'ll ever be. Nearly the whole map is either shallowly submerged or suspended on reedy docks\\huts. There\'s Kashyyyk and Endor trees [i]everywhere[/i], and they all blend in to make an awesome swamp/wetland/flooded forest.

All the vehicles are of the hover variety, so there\'s the cool effect of them over the water. Turrets are pretty well placed, on the docks by the main bases. As with most of a_speck_of_dust\'s maps, there\'s an obscenely large amount of units, so the battle\'s pretty chaotic- almost to the point that your actions don\'t affect the outcome of the battle. You can decide whether that\'s worth the eyecandy factor of all those units duking it out.

It can get a bit laggy, but not as much as you\'d expect with such a swampy map. Overall, very well put together in all aspects.
