Hi,
Actually, Command and Conquer is Craig Brett's map pack and I agree, it is
fantastic. I am not sure if Craig has had time to go further on it or not,
but hopefully he will read this and give an update as to where he is on the
map itself. If I remember right, there might have been some things he wanted
in TB to happen that would make the islands map work better. I think it had
something to do with the oil rigs and team points instead of points
allocated to just units/structures, but don't quote me on that.
That is the problem with making map packs. I want to play everyone elses
stuff too, but then I end up trying to make sure mine are up to par with
everyone elses, sigh.

@allan: By the way, what's up with your comand and conquer Map pack? Is it
finished and stable as well? If yes, I could immagine that the next stable
release of TB would be more epic than the last one already was.
