OK, so Mos Espa is currently by far my favorite map. Not the least because of the incredible street layout - it's extremely fun to drive around those streets, finding and using shortcuts like a routined taxi driver in an old city. The street combat is awesome, too - several times has a battle turned from defending control Point A to pushing the enemy out of Street A. I have a rather neat Battlerecorder file to share of such a case for whoever wants it. Either way, I feel this map has untapped potential, and I want to do something about it.

So what I propose is to make only the Imperial Landing Zone control points and the northernmost Rebel control point actual spawn points, and have every other control point can function as before, subject to capture and control by either side, but not usable as insertion points. To compensate for the Imperial lack of transportation, they get either Combat Speeders or whatever Imperial counterpart the Imperials might have - I honestly don't know what the devs have up their sleeves. That, or the AT-ST could maybe get one or two passenger seats (maybe you could have position 3 or 4 be riding shotgun on the top of the vehicle). Perhaps a speeder bike or two would have to be sacrificed for balance purposes. Then, to ensure that the Rebels get a chance at defending the southernmost control points, maybe there could be some special spawn beacons placed near them in the beginning of the round, usable by everyone but gone after a set period of time or when the enemy destroy them, whichever happens first.

This would mean more street combat, more street driving, more ambushes, and less predictable battles overall as spawning and getting to the scene of the battle becomes more dependent on spawn beacons, which can be placed anywhere, and speeders and speeder bikes, which both move swiftly and can attack from any direction, roads permitting. I picture myself starting a taxi-driving service, picking up soldiers, delivering them at breakneck speed to where they are needed, for then to rush back to the Commercial District for another batch of troops.
