you literally clear cut the lower bowl/field, and the elevations on
the ridges are high enough, that one cannot proxy spot them from
below anyway. as for fjords, similarly the result of
flattening out that giant upper plateau means that the central
hill/high ground is now as important as it is on Mines.
generally speaking, the team that commits to the central high point
, and the north wins. j-hook in the south is almost
completely useless. (and yes, I have won regularly from the
west, as well as winning that high point from the west)DomoSapien: I don't know, I'd say it's a bit early to say whether or not
province is an improvement. Personally I enjoy the fact that your
draw distance spans almost the entire map. It makes positioning
very important, because you have to be hyper-aware of all the
potential firing angles you could be getting hit from. The towns
offer lots of different buildings and alleyways for sidescraping.
I'm interested in seeing how small-team competitive play will pan
out. I think it would be really fun for something like 6v6
heavy tank brawls.
I've only played a few matches on Province so far, however, so..hard to say how it'll play out in randoms on the Live server. Silver lining: visually, it's stunning. I love all the destructible objects, archways, pillars, fences, and statues etc

should be removed rather than you providing a guide.DomoSapien: Well, I just wanted to put out some helpful content that
some folks might find useful. I have no direct control over
map rotation or design since I don't work in that
department; just trying to think of ways that I can help
contribute to the community. As a seasoned player, you might not
benefit from this guide, but a beginner or someone who is returning
to WoT after not playing for several years might pick up a bit of
knowledge by reading this.
I put a lot of work into the graphics, so do you have any input in that regard? What did you think of the guide in general, despite the fact that you don't like the new version of Fjords? Any suggestions or feedback for next week's guide would be much appreciated
I appreciate you sharing your
opinions about the map changes with us, regardless!

I literally like to run up and spot along the slide near the north
east brawling area. Sure this is slightly suicidal but it's
beneficial towards capturing the flank if I can encourage my
teammates to help support me. Then after a few minutes of fidgeting
around there I like to push east down the little path filled with
bushes to spot any extra tanks that may be lying in wait. Over all
I believe this map is much better than it previously was 
. It's definitely more open to more tank classes now
with bushes for TD's and lights. Also nice job on the review! It
was really informative and i'm sure a lot of people will be able to
play more efficiently on this map!DomoSapien:
Actually a couple of my friends mentioned they like to do this as well, since you can use the rocks on that road as cover from enemy LT's and MT's on the spotting tower hill. I tend to prefer TD's and mediums in general, so I like the changes to Fjords as well. The Strv 103b is one of my favorite tanks in the game, so I always enjoy maps that provide me with cool spots to set up and put that gun depression + low armor profile to work! I've even managed to pull of some crazy passive scouting by pushing up the road on the east side of the field when spawning on the Southeast side.
And I've gotta give you a shoutout for having something nice to say about my map guide! I poured my heart into this one so I really appreciate you going easy on me. Glad you enjoyed it <3
