Ahhh. But how many of those 100 maps are actually any good? 4 or 5?
maybe even 6?! most of the maps are shity "4 corners" maps, with the
whole map just full of jems. Westwood's multiplayer maps are probably
all made to their "map making faq" in which case atleast 90% of the
maps are pretty damn good.
