So, I've now played through every map at least once, and this is what I have to say.

Amazing work! The strong point in this map pack are the environments, more than the new units (which are awesome) and the new effects (which are outstanding) Any BF2 map maker should take a hint from these maps because they are unbelieveable. Each one is unique and nothing ever feels out of place in them, everything just seems to fit.

So, I'm just gonna name a few of my favorites:

Gaalidran: Beautiful, I know that sounds silly to talk about a virtual environment as beautiful but still, it really is. Gaalidran is probably my favorite map of the entire pack. Kudos to bobfinkl on that one.

Adon Fel: Very eerie and believable environment.

Ellera Prime: a very cool map, the moon idea is a definite +.

Myydria: A very interesting map, you get the sense of what this place is like instantly.

Sraiden: Something about that ash just makes the map very intriguing, I admit I miss the volcanos of the first map, but it is still a very fun map.

So that's what I have to say. The only errors I had were when I try to play Hymar, Veriss, and Fai'kaal in a playlist with any of the other maps, I get a CTD. I figured out that they have to be the very first map on the playlist in order to work.

Nope dumped it in favour of Galidraan (since they used pretty much the same assets and Kadrala needs fixing up.)

Yep its called Ellera Prime. It might not show up properly (so it'll be blank/"FM2") if you have uk_localisation (I think....). Sorry about that. :(

Hey Sky, do you think you could make Kadrala as a separate release? Bcuz I really liked the first Kadrala and I was really looking forward to the second one.

Let Sky do what he wants to do, or do what he thinks is the best course of action.
