TWO PLAYER MAP

I. About the game
This is the standard melee game merged with Warcraft II and some of my own ideas. It seeks to mainly introduce naval combat in a balanced way and provide a seamless tech-tree that makes sense for each race.

Most recently the game play has been rebalanced to focus on the original two races.

II. Influences
I drew most of my inspiration from playing Warcraft II, there weren't really any other maps that caught my eye. I'm also a war history buff so I drew on that knowledge when I was fleshing out the race trees.

III. Added features
-This edition features very new terrain.
-The camera can be adjusted two levels higher as well as to an overhead view.
-All units of a player who leaves the game become rescueable.

I apologize for that, it's a rare occurrence with Hammer of Thor that leaves a dummy unit behind.

well mine actually crashed during a battle b/w Orges and Sea Turtles
seems like my pc couldn't handle it..

I'm not sure if others have it too but I recall the game crashing in the 8 player map ( was set to full party computers )
would be good if you can find a way to fix it might be lowering the Food cap ?
or Give a Food Cap Voting poll at the start like the only T1, Only T2 poll at the start.

ty for the reply looking forward for the new map ^^
 
Version B will be out soon, there's only one issue remaining.

As for the AI and crashes you should be aware that Blizzard's AI is highly unstable as far as AI's go. They do worse when there are more than one or two on a single map, and they do not deal well with more than one control group.

There are simply some limitations placed on me by the outdated engine this game runs on; the implementation of AI itself has been a massive undertaking as my map has quite a few complex ability systems in play and the latest addition of being able to choose your race/color did not simplify matters.

----------------------



Positive features:

- Good Terrain
- Has a quest menu

Negative features:

- I was unable to build Arrow Tower, it also just said "Missing Error Message"
- Brazier creates blight, bad idea
- Blaster attack is bugged
- I can't find the berserker upgrade
- The races are too similar to the original

Additional Information / Conclusion:

Well since this is the last map, it's the little amount of better that allows me to vote for approval.

Rating: 2/5
