Welcome Darklycan51.

Yes, Please add a screenshot and make some formating in the text. If you plan to have a long description I strongly suggest to make a post in the pastebin board and link it here with the [post] BBCODE.

Welcome!

As they said, make it prettier. Also it seems a lot of work has been put here for its 27 races. Good job there.
Downloading.

Well, the game should inform a lot of things about the mechanics.
I knew it was melee, but the race selection system is not efficient. I've started with nerubians
There are a lot of general issues like missing tooltips and lack of information.
The map is not comfortable to walk, too much narrow paths give the feeling that you're limited in the attack and retreat. In terms of strategy you limits the movements to advance or retreat.
Some teleportation points only work in one direction: you can go but you can't return.
Some tooltips are in Spanish: Tienes suerte que yo hablo español
Specific items per region? I feel this can affect the balance in the game
About balance, making a race specialized in melee and other in range is not balance. Balance is done by testing several units group combinations and ensuring they will counter other group combination.

It's a good start, but I suggest to work mainly in the documentation. If you set your definition of balance, features and other components in your map, you can increase the likeness. Good luck

What do you mean about the teleportation points? because you're the first one to say that a portal only works in one way

yeah i've recently fixed my colorizer for my war3 editor so i'll be starting to update the tooltips, it's a mess to update them without colorizer :/.

next time i update the map i'll be updating the thread too.

If you see the replay, I was able to move from my teleportation point to the bottom center part of the map, but I can't return.
