this is Agri world Tarsis Ultra
http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/9732/extarsisultra0001.jpg
map will be in original CP variation + with some experience from TF2 maps /
5 CPs , middle - easy to capture , hard to protect/ next to base CP average protect/capture ability. Last base CP is hardest to capture , many defence positions

here is description of the world
Quote
Tarsis Ultra was a Civilised World with some specifications typical to an Agri World and a long, harsh winter period during which it looked like a ice world. It was the turning point of the advance of Hive Fleet Leviathan. During the Great Crusade, Roboute Guilliman led the assault on this world from which he was attacked by an unknown assailant but was saved by a native soldier. Guilliman then made a warriors bond with the trooper vowing to return should the world ever need his aid. A temple within the capital Erebus honours this along with the planets residents changing the name to include the Ultramarine's name and the local Planetary Defence Force attempting to replicate the Ultramarine's Power armour.
so i've manage it with snow theme. I was searching world like that and this is my luck , ultramarines vs tyranids in snow battle for this world
Invasion of Tyranid hive
Quote
In 999.M41, Tarsis Ultra was faced with the threat of the Tyranids after it was discovered that a tendril of Hive Fleet Leviathan was bound for the planet. The Ultramarines were sworn to honour the ancient oath pledged by the Primarch, Roboute Guilliman, to defend the people of Tarsis Ultra; thus Captain Uriel Ventris through the orders of Marneus Calgar enlisted the aid of a Company from an Ultramarines Second Founding Chapter, the Mortifactors, led by Chaplain Astador. Supporting the Space Marines defending Tarsis Ultra were 10th Logres led by Colonel Octavius Rebalaq, the 933rd Death Korps of Krieg led by Colonel Trymon Stagler, and the PDF Regiments headed by Major Satria. Inquisitor Kryptman was also present to impart his extensive knowledge of the Tyranids to help the war effort. Fabricator Marshal Sebastian Montante proved to be a valuable asset as an efficient organiser of resources and general supply management.

When the Tyranids arrived in the system and consumed the planet Barbarus Prime, the Imperials launched an attack in space. Despite an initial victory in destroying a Hiveship, Inquisitor Kryptman wished to invoke Exterminatus upon the world Chordelis, as it was the next planet in the path of the Tyranids; this was to prevent it from being devoured and swelling the Tyranids' numbers, as planetary evacuation was deemed to be too slow. Ventris was vehemently against this decision and supported an alternative solution proposed by Admiral Tiberius, who proposed to slow down the Tyranids by exploding a hydrogen-plasma refinery in space thereby destroying another Hiveship. However, Kryptman had lied to Ventris and with the assistance of the Mortifactors invoked Exterminatus in spite of the Ultramarines' plan succeeding. The Imperials attempted the same trick again with a second space refinery to destroy yet another Hiveship. However, the Tyranids adapted to this ploy and the plan backfired on the Imperials, crippling their fleet and forcing the survivors to flee; Tarsis Ultra was left unprotected from space, which allowed the Tyranids to launch their final planetary invasion.

During the Tyranid attacks on Tarsis Ultra, a Lictor was captured by Ventris and a Deathwatch team; this proved pivotal during the war, as Kryptman was able to concoct a venom from the Lictor's genetic structure that would send an early generation Tyranid into hyper-evolution, killing the creature. They then decided upon killing the Norn-Queen in order to win the war. Ventris joined the Deathwatch team in infiltrating the final remaining Hiveship to kill the last Norn-Queen controlling the Tyranids. Ventris managed to finally kill the last Norn-Queen with Kryptman's gene-poison. The remaining Space Marine contingent of both the Ultramarines and Mortifactors were down to sixteen men when the Tyranids started to attack each other, as the link with the Hive Mind was lost when the last Norn-Queen died. The psychic shockwave of the overmind's death affected the Tyranids into slaughtering each other senselessly, leaving the Imperials alone. The majority froze to death under the harsh conditions of Tarsis Ultra with a minority surviving and taking refuge in warmer surroundings. At the conclusion of the war, Ventris reaffirmed his faith as an Ultramarine to protect the Imperium from the enemies of Mankind

another update
are for final imp point , which gonna be with strongest defence and really good defence positions
http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/8826/extarsisultra0018.jpg
 so pre-final point for imperials will be like a camp
http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/9410/extarsisultra0019.jpg
this hieght of cover is perfectly covering half of the marine
but snow makes it harder to aim and easier for nids to get in close combat with marines
http://img541.imageshack.us/img541/7550/extarsisultra0020.jpg
so it will be average in terms of defence

very awesome keep it up man. i notice some gameplay issues mostly for the nids; since theyre vastly exposed on this map, try to give them more cover, or the game may end up in a killing field stalemate, otherwise great update.

dont worry mate , the nid points will be cave-like with not just cover , but also with ability to flank or ambush marines , especially at the final point of nids

and pre-last point for imps got lots of open space , so they can protect it better , but with lictors,thrope and warriors this place can be break down
so its average in terms of protection by imps.
