If you’ve been playing custom maps for a while and enjoy tug of war style maps like Nexus Wars or Desert Strike, you should check out Colonial Line Wars

The map is divided into a 3 v 3 style map. You band together with your team mates to overrun the other teams waves, and get money by controlling a higher portion of your own “lane”

Each person on your team has their own lane (including yourself). Your lane is where you build primarily, and try to push your opponent back.

Good strategies include diversifying your army, getting more units back at your Lab, and countering your opponents forces.

There are always situations where you can turn a game around just by waiting for a collossus or another epic unit and you end up pushing your opponent back.

It seems like Colonial Line Wars has lost it’s popularity in the last few months, but it doesn’t take more then 9 minutes to find a game these days on Battle.net

You can also invest in your lane by purchasing investments at your Lab, similiar to the Banpei in Nexus Wars or the Vespene Geysers in Desert Strike

Colonial Line Wars is a pretty fun tug of war style map that allows you to play in a team environment where your units all spawn at the same time. You can also help your opponents if they are failing by building in their lane. There are no penalties for this, sometimes it’s necessary to do this.

All in all, a great map, and a must play for any tug of war fan.
