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.
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 is a melee so there isn't anything crazy going on, but there are a couple things.
-The camera can be adjusted two levels higher as well as to an overhead view.
-If you exceed your food produced all your units and structures will lose health slowly.
-All units of a player who leaves the game become rescueable.

Well, I was right... Maps with too long names don't show when placed in custom folders.

Thanks, the name change worked, and this is fun to play. The only problem I get is a little bit of lag every couple seconds once far ingame, can't help with why that is......

The lag was fixed. Maybe the problem is in your computer.

I don't think so, I have a 2.8ghz core 2 duo, 4gb of ram, and a 4670....... i think that's a little higher than the system requirements of Warcraft 3.....

You need to tell your problem to Kam. I never had such a problem after the lag fix.

Hey Kam, one suggestion. Can you add oil patches? You can contact Norbo and Squashwell how to make it. (They are the creators of Genesis of empires 2)

Just a tip:
-Test a Map with AI Editor (Melee of Course)
-Go to Warcraft III Properties
-Scroll Down until you see a new folder.
-open folder,inside you will see an AI file named "WorldEditTestGame.ai"
-open it with Notepad
-if you want your map a ai(because its melee)customize the code.(ex.unit ids,ability ids of your map,etc.)
-import it to your map
-PM me if im wrong
