Adding 2 New Deployment Maps to the ES

[Mavelle]

Name: Mavelle

RP Rank: WO

Suggestion: I suggest that we add 2 new maps for deployments. These two new maps are entitled "rp_darkscape" and "gm_marsh" respectively. Both of these maps are medium/large sized, so they should not have much impact on the server, and have very little in the way of modern breaks in immersion. As a GM, I can think of at least 4 deployment ideas for each map, and I'm sure many others could do the same.

Implementation: These maps would be added to the event server, and would be able to be changed to using the !changemap command.

Lore: Both of these maps could be used for a wide variety of planets/missions! rp_darkscape features a slightly urban, yet natural landscape, usable for any number of urban as well as wilderness adventures, and gm_marsh can be used for any swamp planet, even for horror deployments! There is a significant lack of swamp-ness in the current available maps, haha.

There are about 4 modern cars, but judging by the fact that we have Valley and Oldworld, it should not be much of an issue at all.

Neither of these maps acquire additional textures or files.

+1 Both kinda have the same gimmick being a dark and dreary map

Perfect areas for Grievous runs for mayor part 3.

Marsh can be a very laggy map but the map is very cool. as long as only a handful of battalions are deployed it should be a great map for the ES.

As long as the server can handle it, more maps = more variety. We could probably work towards thinning down some seldom-used maps as well so we can make room for more cool ones.

Marsh is a absolute banger of a map.

I have personally played around on these maps a little bit ago before this suggestion was up as I was looking for more ES maps. I find Marsh to be really small and hard to work with in terms of building and for anyone to deploy on it. Darkscape on the other hand is much larger compared to Marsh and can easily be used for some good smaller deployments. If I can I am -1ing Marsh but +1ing Darkscape

+1 I think this is a good suggestion. I am happy to give this a +1 if it help GMs be more creative with events

I agree! One of the upsides of marsh is that it's populated well, meaning that there's not even a huge amount of props that you would need to use to shift the tone of the setting to what you need.
