Oh god, Minotaur, PPC Tank and Hurricane all at the core? I'll abstain from voting because I rarely play, but if I voted, it'd be no.
[edit]
I'm not sure why Astra sent this in private (Don't want to scare the newbies? ), but for all who don't know the map yet:

Starry nighttime skybox, slightly rotated bases' buildings so they don't directly face the trench primaries, 2 primaries, manual shield cover for the proximal primaries operated via a trigger/switch located near the bases; mino, 2 hurricanes, lobreaker, EONS Crusader, minitanks and 2 hammerheads at the top level of each base accessible via (often lamed) teleporters, EONS gren. launcher pickups near 'em; PPC tank at distant primaries, ions and Centaurs at lateral secondaries, Nexus ML and EONS Nuke Layer at center, broken xWeaponBases at the 2 insignificant map edges.
Overall, quite hostile to the aerial playstyle (most earthbound adversaries sport quite nasty hitscans while HHs are a joke), while the prospect of surviving - never mind contributing anything useful - as a pedestrian is pretty much a non-starter. You know, fun.
Edit: ah, shit; well, never mind >_>.

Nah, your post sums up my thoughts about it pretty well.

Never played this, so... I'd give it a try, just to actually be able to taste how bad it is, in any case xD
If I ever have to actually talk bad about this map, at least I want to have tried it once.

Played this a few times on the Omnipotents server and it resulted in me loathing this map. Hell 'no' from me.

Absolute no from me on this one.
Tankmeup was always a dire map - too many bottlenecks and an invitation for the lazy players to camp.

If lame-a-lot map is on the server, why can't be this one? On this map there is a chance for a comeback, while on lame-a-lot it's next to zero cause some players, (won't say names, you know who you are) keep spamming the core area with the ion tank just to spawnkill. that's one of the worst maps ever i think. Also for some reason there are two versions of Katharos, the NV version is very frustrating if the enemy team has several hitscan players

Yes, it is not only about camping, although many of your may complain about the camping players, this map is also a lot about strategy, especially regarding the two nodes on the diagonal between the cores
Camp nubs require only insistence and availability to spawn, die and again in loop. It may be annoying, but the satisfaction at the end compensate it ^^

If it replaced Tanks a lot I might vote for it, but it's not a map I'm keen on. It's not one of the maps I used to enjoy playing.
