Chains of Command: the central wit spaces again favor p1, they can move a soldier towards the wit space and p2 cannot counter. Five wits per turn just isn't enough, you should at leas give each player their own wit space so they have a chance of taking back the central wits space. Also, if p2 was on the same side as p1, p3 would also claim a wit space, and the match would be a blow out. Also, the opposite colored medics are pointless, and in general the map is clogged up too much. It is almost impossible to get through the middle passage, and it would be very prone to turtling.

Killing Corridor: this map is pretty much pointless. The snipers make it pretty much impossible to do anything, and p1 wins almost every time as follows:
Both players spawn runners to capture wit spaces:
P1 kills runner with sniper, spawns runner, moves one above wit space, out of range of sniper.. P2 does whatever. P1 moves runner to wit space, replaces with new runner. P2 cannot reclaim this wit space without getting killed by the sniper, and p1 can just keep spamming runners to maintain the wit space. Even if p2 responds with their own runner, the never get the wits from their wit space because p1 just takes it back. The only way the can maintain their wit space for even a turn is with a boosted heavy, and even that dies in a turn. Therefore, p2 needs to kill p1's sniper with a mobi, but they are still at a huge wit disadvantage, because p1 can also use a mobi to kill p2's sniper. That means you have to play mobi on this map, and p1 is generally at an insurmountable advantage.

Oh dear. I seem to love FTA. Thank you for the feedback, I'm gonna have to revamp these maps a lot I see
