Idea for a new pvp map

It would something like king of the mountain where you have one point in the center of the map with 6 bridges leading to the center from an outer ring the starting at the end of each bridge would a some form of a siege weapon. You would have two cannons, two mortars, one treb, and one Flare launcher. The cannons would just simple cannons that fire and 5000 damage or so. The mortars would have three different ammo types; Boon Slayer Ammo: Fires three shells that do no damage but strip 1 boon per hit. Condition Slayer Ammo: Fires three shells that do no damage remove one condition per hit and finally Sticky Bomb Ammo: Fires 3 shells that does 300 damage and immobilize targets for 1 second per hit. the Flare Launcher would allow you drop random bundles or supplies like first aid kits, lightning hammers, flame throwers, bones, gunk, drake scales etc. The treb would toss breakable canisters that would set a small area on fire about the same size as the old symbol graphic that would last 10 seconds on a 12 recharge.

The team who controls the center would be blocked from using the siege weaponry. The weaponry itself would rotate randomly every 20 seconds or so. Those whom control the center would ideally have to send folks out to keep the opposing team off the siege weapons. The center area would only be about 2000 or 1500 units in diameter. Using Knock backs or Fear skills to quickly gain position in the center would be welcome. While i understand skyhammer is fairly annoying for some because of this I hope that the fact that center of the map would be large enough that if you where just outside the cap circle you wouldn’t knocked off the edge in most cases. the bridges themselves would have have guard rails with broken sections in them to add some spice in trying to make it to the center, but leaving railing so you are not just open to just being knocked off by fear or knock backs while trying to make it to the center.

I thought it might be fun to play this kind of map.
