    400,450, 500 radius if memory serves me. Then a zaphod 2x 400 system maybe for the finals. With multi spawn.
    Desert, lava, moon, ice and earth multiplayer.

    I'm afraid to ask but I've got to do it. Why is it the Zaphod map?

    400 to 500 for 2v2?

    Guess we should practice commander rushes instead of a economy games.

    Nah turrets too strong v commanders. Going to be catapult vg rushing. First team to make 2 catapults wins. Can't wait.

    I expected bigger planets since they announced games that could last more than an hour.

    Once again in my time of playing Planetary Annihilation, I find myself in a bewilderment.
    This is a 2v2 no a 1v1 so my goodness this is going to be crazy.
    Fun...perhaps....but definitely crazy.

    No fun, boring boring games, no fighting for map control as each starting position has like 40mex. Just a race to t2. Catapults and vanguards. Even t1 air is a bad choice. Meh.

    Actually yeah, having second thoughts - more interesting games would be found 650R+ or 250-, the latter is the cut off for crazy games with this many players.
    Shame that in this tourney I won't be able to play the game that provides the most enjoyment - 'Give and Take' or to put it another way 'Thrill Of The Chase'.
    Oh well, just another turret spam t2 rush game...

    All but the first system are multi-planet. I think Uber are expecting to see orbital play.

    Ooh this ain't so bad. I checked the maps briefly when I woke up at 6am.
    So most likely 2 1v1s on small planets. I can deal with that.

    Edit: retracted, back to wtfbbq mode.

    That might be hard to cast.
