Custom "Random Maps"

Post by 10010 1111 10 »

These are NOT scenarios, these are regular “Random Map” maps, playable on both EE and AoC, that will show up as map options in your Map Type drop-down window. In order to play on one of these maps each of the members of a game must have the map installed. You will still be able to play all other map types with other players regardless of who does or does not have these maps installed.

*Some maps must be installed differently than others; therefore each map has its own installation instructions explained in its post.

TORTURED RIVERS
  • Large land masses are separated by thin rivers. The larger the map, the more intricate the river system becomes. Huge and Gigantic can make some mighty sick maps.
  • Rivers are fishable and are wide enough to navigate ships through.
  • Twice as many trees as compared to Large Islands map
  • About 1/3 additional iron and gold mines
  • Double stone mines
  • Some screenshots of various map sizes and player counts:

MAP X

This is a modified Plains map.

Each base contains:
  • 2 starting capitals
  • 21 starting citizens (if you choose)
  • 5 gold, 5 iron, 2 stone
  • 2 forage patches (3 if starting epoch is Pre)
There are also:
  • Increased resources outside of bases
  • No tigers
  • And just a butt-load of animals to hunt

Some of the benefits of Map X
  • Massive resource collection potential for booming
  • Perfect for NR games where lack of mines becomes a problem
  • Virtually eliminates the fear of hunt kill
  • Enemies will no longer know exactly where your cits will be mining/foraging/hunting so rush-cit-raping is less predictable


Installation Instructions (2 steps required)

Step 1
  • Download (suggest to Desktop): http://www.box.net/shared/057b2s515t
  • and extract to: Sierra\Empire Earth\Data\Random Map Scripts
    or Sierra\Empire Earth - The Art of Conquest\Data\Random Map Scripts
Step 2 - required for additional citizens (For those NOT using the LvR mod that I made)
  • Download (suggest to Desktop): http://www.box.net/shared/6j8yep85nv
  • Extract to: Sierra\Empire Earth\Data\WONLobby Resources
    or Sierra\Empire Earth - The Art of Conquest\Data\WONLobby Resources

ZEUS

Think you're godly? Try managing your eco and armies on a Zeus map. (ok that was cheesy I know)


This is a modified Plains map.
  • Maximum possibility of only 10 starting citizens. (doesn't matter if host tries to add more)
  • No starting capital, just a single settlement. Pop it right away to make more cits and you sacrifice your rush. Don't pop it right away and you may drastically hamper your mid-game boom.
  • Extremely low map resources. 1 - 2 of each mine, per player, depending on map size. Want more? You'll have to take them from other players. And once their gone.... their gone!
  • Hunt is practically non-existent to start, so decide wisely if you want to use it immediately.
  • Oh and tigers are a-plenty.
Installation Instructions:
  • Download (suggest to Desktop): http://www.box.net/shared/c1z6qmy9nj
  • Extract to: Sierra\Empire Earth\Data\Random Map Scripts
    or Sierra\Empire Earth - The Art of Conquest\Data\Random Map Scripts

TWISTED FOR GRENS


If you play Gren Wars then you might enjoy this made-for-Grens map.
  • No land elevation. So no hills or mountains at all, not even little ones.
  • Additional iron mines
  • A single gold mine on any map for those who play with heroes and wonders and may want an Otto or gold wonders. There’s only 1, and it could be anywhere, so if you want it you and your team may have to fight for it.
  • No tigers or wolves
  • Loads of extra hunt
Simply download: http://www.box.net/shared/jddk0oua0s
And place in:
Empire Earth\Data\Random Map Scripts
or
Empire Earth - The Art of Conquest\Data\Random Map Scripts
