Tric's 2016 Map Making Contest

Ever thought about making your own maps and having them be considered by Relic for inclusion in the 1v1 automatch rotation? Well now is your chance to try it out and give it a go! With the community here, we will be seeking to create unique and inspired maps which will bring some love to CoH2.

In the first half of the two part contest, we will be giving contestants a 2 month long period of sharing, feedback and testing. Each person is allowed to submit 1 map for each visual category (Urban, Rural, and Industrial). The maps will be judged based on the following guidelines. Please note that these are merely guidelines, so creativity and non-standard maps will still be viewed and have feedback given accordingly.
