Modern Empire Builder Beta 4.9 is a map focusing on the utilization of an advanced tech tree.

The map's presentation wasn't bad, but it wasn't very good, either. The spelling and grammar were fine, but the tool tips definitely needed more detail. Similar to blizzard tooltips, I should be informed of the style of combat the unit is focused on before I create it. The map's terrain wasn't very good. It needed a lot more tile variation. It's basically a flat, grass area stretching across the entire map. In all honesty, terrain matters less than normal in a map like this.

The gameplay was fun, and quite replayable. The games options were configurable by the host, which is almost always a plus. In my opinion, anti-air craft turrets were over powered. They were able to basically one-hit any aircraft in the game, rendering them quite useless. They should be capable of destroying aircrafts, but enough completely decimate them in any situation. A player massed AA and tanks in their base, making them nearly invincible. The ion beam was moveable after fired, which just looked weird. Add locust to the units.

Rating:
2.7 and recommended for approval

My Recommendations:

Improve the tooltips.
Balance the units.
Consider improving the terrain.
Make the ion beam unselectable.

You should make the whole map fancy, not just the cliffs and the hill you start on, the rest of the map is bland, btw i think you should add a bullet system[so you cant fire through walls 'n stuff, only over them :)]

Like i said, you should improve the tech tree, make it larger, make the upgrades do less improvements and such, it will make the game longer, funner and by far, greater.

Again hive members dont read my posts as they should.
Its, again, the beginning of the map and all you do is build the amount of houses u are allowed to, then research some stuff and build tanks and planes, infantry is kinda underpowered.
And if some1 builds on that cliff only bases u need planes before u can even reach him.
If the early game sucks, you get bored and annoyed of it, even if it gets maybe better in the end, its done allready.
As I said I rated it 2/5, so its definatly improvable and I hope u improve it :)

Infantry is pretty balanced actually imho if not a little too strong, they are a lot stronger than tanks and can easily kill them, only thing is they die faster by other units. I can clearly see from your post that you have not properly played this map. like I said in my last post..
Please do not post any further in this thread.
