My original review:

[quote]Back in the old days of powder and shot, star forts were built to provide firing positions to keep enemy soldiers away from the fort. This map is a recreation of a real fort, Vesting Bourtange, in the northern Netherlands. Like its inspiration, it is 5-sided, and filled with narrow streets and alleys.

Gameplay-wise, whoever controls the bridges controls the game. There are four bridges, two for tanks and two for infantry, which lead into the fort. On the far side of either is a manpower point which, if taken by the enemy, will cut you off from all your supplies in the fort. If they dig in on the other side of the bridge, you'll have a tough time getting back in. Conversely, you can do the same to them.

The narrow streets in the fort are also probably going to frustrate your tanks. You might want to watch out with sending large vehicles through the middle of the fortress, as they'll be sitting ducks for infantry. However, expect some nice and large battles for the central square, as that is where the inevitable clashes will be.

Enjoy the map![/quote]

P.S. Resistance is futile, eh?
